Thanks to everyone who was involved in the 2033 Peachtree Corners Comprehensive Plan process! On August 20th, the City Council adopted a resolution to transmit the plan to the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) for review. Now, the City will wait for final comments from the regional commission and the state agency in charge of comprehensive planning, the Department of Community Affairs (DCA). Once the ARC and DCA have signed off on the plan, the City will adopt it in October.
