| dc.description | The Blueprints process undertaken for this project was
specifically designed to provide research, support and
recommendations for development of a county-wide
Conservation Plan. The planning process, directed by
the Georgia Conservancy’s Blueprints for Successful
Communities and in partnership with The Center, relied
on stakeholder working group of over 50 participants,
including members of the Leadership Collaborative and
individuals from the community with relevant interests
and expertise. The Georgia Tech Graduate City and
Regional Planning Studio has supported this work which
has been organized in four main phases, as listed below. Phase 1: Identification of conservation assets and challenges in the County, a survey of best practices
and tools from around the country, and an audit of Newton County’s existing development practices and
land use tools.
Phase 2: Development of conservation issues, goals and objectives.
Phase 3: Presentation of GIS based maps of relevant County resources and land use issues and
discussion and evaluation of possible solutions to conservation issues.
Phase 4: Presentation of specific recommended conservation solutions and an organized evaluation and
ranking of these solutions. | en_US |
