Regional Development Plan

Last modified Tuesday, July 29, 2008 14:12

The Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) has developed a Regional Development Plan (RDP) that sets forth policies to guide future development decisions in the region.The Regional Development Plan includes two main components – Regional Development Plan Policies (PDF) and a Technical Report. RDP Policies seek to integrate land use decisions with transportation, environmental and other public investment decisions.  These policies serve as recommendations to local governments for endorsement or implementation within their local planning efforts and also guide ARC’s regional planning efforts.

The Technical Report is developed pursuant to the Georgia Planning Act and is submitted to the Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA) for review and approval.  In addition to the Technical Report, ARC also annually submits a Regional Work Program to DCA outlining programs and strategies ARC is implementing to address regional needs and to achieve regional goals outlined in the Technical Report.
