We Need Your Help!

Public involvement is a key component of any planning effort and is critical for truly understanding the priorities and needs in Glynn County. Establishing many ways for people to engage in the planning process ensures local knowledge is accessed and used in developing trail network recommendations and maximizes the opportunities for the public to embrace ownership of the recommendations. Hearing directly from community members with their firsthand user feedback is critical in understanding the nuances of current bicycle and pedestrian activity across Glynn County: what is working well, what are the opportunities for improvements, and what are the challenges to overcome. This opportunity to introduce and plan for regional connectivity between municipal neighbors and unincorporated Glynn County will provide access to regional commercial corridors, recreational hubs, and other popular destinations. Additionally, this planning study will promote cultural vibrancy by increasing equitable access to local parks, nature, and the community at large.

Frequently Asked Questions

The City of South Fulton is working with its citizens and community stakeholders to update the Comprehensive Plan, a critical document that steers communities and helps them address important issues and opportunities while embracing a unique vision for the future.

This plan will include both practical and implementable recommendations that promote safe communities, sustained economic development, diverse housing, transportation options, and other development and redevelopment efforts.

The Georgia Department of Community Affairs has numerous resources available for the public to learn about local comprehensive planning in Georgia. Periodic updates to local planning documents, such as comprehensive plans, are required in order to retain Qualified Local Government status, which makes cities eligible for various funding, permitting, and incentive programs administered by the State. Learn more here: https://dca.georgia.gov/community-assistance/coordinated-planning/local-planning/local-comprehensive-planning.

This plan is focused on all areas within the city limits of the City of South Fulton. View a map of the city and council district boundaries here: https://www.cityofsouthfultonga.gov/DocumentCenter/View/8532/COSF-Map-All_Districts-UPDATED.

This project was awarded to Sizemore Group and its partners in Fall 2024 and is expected to end in October 2025 with the adoption of the updated comprehensive plan. Visit the Schedule Tab for a detailed breakdown of the planning process schedule and key upcoming dates.

Hearing from people on their firsthand experiences is critical to understanding the nuances of living in the City of South Fulton: What is working well? What are the opportunities for improvements? What are the challenges to overcome? Alongside technical analyses of the existing conditions and input from key stakeholders responsible for delivering infrastructure, policies, and programs, the updated comprehensive plan will incorporate feedback from residents and business owners about their priorities for the city's direction over the next 20 years. Public and stakeholder input will be used directly in the development of a vision and supporting goals for the plan as well as help inform the development of strategies for improving conditions in the City of South Fulton.
