UPDATE: Johnson Ferry-Shallowford Master Plan meetings resume

Johnson Ferry-Shallowford community, Johnson Ferry-Shallowford Master Plan

We noted last month that another round of public meetings for the Johnson Ferry-Shallowford Master Plan were resuming in early 2019.

The first meeting next Tuesday, Jan. 15, at 7 p.m., at Chestnut Ridge Christian Church (2663 Johnson Ferry Road). Additional meetings are scheduled for Feb. 12 and March 12, at the same time and venue.

Representatives from the Cobb Community Development Department and other county government agencies will be on hand, and this first meeting will include a presentation to “re-familiarize” the public with the master plan scope and process, followed by breakout sessions.

Topics include land use, parks and recreation, transportation and stormwater management.

The master plan concept that is developed from the JOSH meetings will be incorporated into the Cobb 2040 Comprehensive Plan.

Citizens can offer feedback online, and view documents, maps and other information related to the study area, by visiting the Cobb government website with JOSH information.

The master plan process is similar to others done in the county at the behest of district commissioners. District 2 commissioner Bob Ott, whose constituency now includes the Johnson Ferry-Shallowford area, has had previous master plans conducted for the Powers Ferry and Johnson Ferry corridors and Vinings.
