PUBLIC MEETING - DRAFT PLAN PRESENTATION

ANNOUNCEMENT! The Town of Georgia Planning Commission will be hosting a Public Meeting to present a preliminary draft of the new Town Plan on Tuesday, July 30th, 6:30pm, at the Georgia Fire & Rescue meeting room in Georgia Center. A presentation will be given with an overview of the new plan, with a specific emphasis on reviewing the draft policies and goals which have been developed. The presentation will be followed by a Q&A discussion period to take comments and suggestions from the public on how the draft could be improved.

Note that this meeting is not a public hearing, but is being provided as an informal opportunity for the public to review and discuss the ideas presented.

This draft (Version 1.0) carries forward most of the goals and policies of the existing Town Plan, and has added or modified others based on public input collected from previous public meetings and the community survey from last winter. A link to view or download a PDF copy of the draft will be provided in the "Documents" section of the project webpage at https://www.regrowthplanning.com/georgia about a week before the meeting so that the public has the opportunity to review it in advance.

Comments received on this first draft will be used to develop a second draft of the Plan before any official Planning Commission or Selectboard public hearings are considered. Once the draft document is available for presentation and review, we will update this page with more information.

COMMENT PERIOD. After this public meeting, a comment period will remain open for about a week where people can still submit additional comments or suggestions to the Planning Commission via the Online Comment Form on the project webpage linked above.

ZOOM OPTION. This public meeting will be BROADCAST live on zoom for people to view if they are not able to attend in person, however it is not certain that we will be able to take live questions from the online audience. A link to the Zoom will be provided on the project webpage linked above a day or two before the meeting.

RECORDING. A video recording of the presentation and discussion will be provided on the project webpage linked above a few days after the meeting for people who were unable to catch it live.

We hope that many of you can join us and provide your input!
