Subject: 2028 Comprehensive Plan - Draft Community Assessment



At the November 27 Council worksession meeting, the Planning Department will

present an update on the current efforts to develop a new comprehensive plan

for the community. Part of this effort will be to present the Community

Assessment report, which is the first step in this process. The Community

Assessment reviews the current status of the city on major issues such as

transportation, housing, and economic conditions, and establishes a baseline

for developing the new comprehensive plan. In order to meet the requirements

of the Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA), the presentation is

required to be held as a public hearing. Citizens will be encouraged to come

and make general comments about the report, which will then be incorporated and

sent to DCA for their review.



A copy of the report is attached for Council's review. This document is also

available on the Planning Department's web site at www.columbusga.com/mpo.



Sincerely,

Respectfully,

Rick Jones, AICP
Director, Planning Department
