(Augusta – August 8, 2008) The Community Agenda component of the updated Augusta-Richmond County Comprehensive Plan is now available for review. The Community Agenda includes a summary of the community participation process; the final list of community issues and opportunities identified by residents and stakeholders for future action, the overall vision for the future development of the city, expressed in the form of a Future Development Map indicating unique character areas, each with its own strategy for guiding future development patterns; and an implementation program that will help the community realize its vision for the future and address the identified issues and opportunities.

The Future Development Map actually consists of three maps: the Final Character Area Map, the Future Development Patterns Map and the Natural and Cultural Resources Map. Three maps are necessary in order to clearly convey information on future development patterns, account for the resources that need protection and identify the other areas requiring special attention.

The Community Agenda and Future Development Map are available on the project website or by contacting the Planning Commission by phone, fax or e-mail.
