The third of 12 Liberty Consolidated Planning Commission community-planning meetings is scheduled for 5:30-7:30 p.m. Thursday at Dorchester Academy, 8787 E. Oglethorpe Highway in Midway.
Thursday’s meeting is open to the public and will focus on the McIntosh/Holmestown area.
The purpose of the community-planning meetings, which are scheduled for each month in different locations in the county, is to review recent development trends in the area and receive public input regarding future decision-making about land use, zoning and transportation.
Information received from these meetings will be used to formulate the 2040 Liberty County Comprehensive Plan, a guide for the development of Liberty County and its communities during the next 25 years.
The Comprehensive Plan will be used by city and county elected officials to make decisions on proposed land-use developments, as well as transportation and infrastructure investments.
Planning-commission staff will present current maps of land use and transportation plans for the community.
The McIntosh/Holmestown Community includes unincorporated areas of Liberty County, encompassing approximately 29,422 acres of land primarily zoned agricultural.
Information gathered at the meeting will be used to update future land-use and transportation plans for the community.
