INTRODUCTION: PROGRESS IN THE MAKING Why plan ahead? Successful local governments in the State of Georgia are perpetually looking towards the future in an effort to identify upcoming trends in evolving fields such as the economy, housing, transportation, education, and environmental protection. This allows them to continuously have a competitive economy and provide a proper quality of life for their citizens. Proper planning also allows local governments to be cost efficient by identifying future issues and expenses far enough in advance to proactively address them prior to their becoming larger issues. Having a current and valid comprehensive plan also allows local governments to maintain their Qualified Local Government (QLG) Status, with the Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA). Maintaining QLG Status keeps local governments eligible to receive State grants, as well as government-backed low interest loans. Planning Requirements The State of Georgia has minimum planning standards that DCA is tasked with administering. These minimum standards were updated in 2014 and all plan updates must adhere to the new rules. A full plan update is required every 10 years, however the Joint Steering Committee looked at some elements, like population projections, as far forward as the year 2030. This joint comprehensive plan has been prepared in accordance with the Georgia Planning Act of 1989 and the corresponding Rules of Georgia Department of Community Affairs, Chapter 110-12-1, Minimum Standards and Procedures for Comprehensive Planning (effective March 1, 2014). The following elements have been addressed in this 10-year update: Community Vision and Goals – This includes a Vision Statement for each municipality and joint community goals, agreed upon by each community. Report of Accomplishments – A table summarizing the status of the projects from the previous five-year work program. Projects determined to be “underway” or “postponed” have been included in the newly created work program. Needs and Opportunities – A list created by the joint stakeholder committee that reflects the current state of each community and opportunities for growth and development. Community Work Program – A list of specific projects to accomplish within the next five years. This list of projects are designed to address each of the needs and opportunities. Land Use/Future Development Guides - – a spatial organization system created through maps of each jurisdiction. These are used to show how people interact with the land 27 and how development will change the landscape in the future. Calhoun and Gordon County plan for future land use through zoning. Fairmount, Plainville, Ranger and Resaca currently have no zoning ordinances in places and rely upon Future Development Maps for land use decision-making. Gordon County – Past, Present and Future Gordon County was officially created by an act of the Georgia General Assembly on December 19, 1835. Prior to becoming Georgia’s 94th county, the area was explored by Hernando Desoto and was home to New Echota, capitol of the Cherokee Nation from 1825 to 1835. The Cherokee lands were later distributed among white settlers during a land lottery. The Native Americans were removed from the land in what later became known as the Trail of Tears. The land in this area was widely regarded for its agricultural uses, thanks to nutrient rich soil. The City of Calhoun, originally known as Dawsonville, developed along the Western and Atlantic Railroads, as well as the banks of the Oostanaula River and Oothakalooga Creek. Local residents voted for Calhoun to become the county seat in 1851 and the city became incorporated the following year. Gordon County saw significant action during the Civil War during The Battle of Resaca, part of General Sherman’s famous Atlanta Campaign. An estimated 7,000 troops, both Federal and Confederates,

  • Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Lady Antebellum Has Spent Plenty of Time in All Three
    747 Planes, trains and automobiles. Lady Antebellum has spent plenty of time in all three. Driven by the need to continually evolve, the country trio always seems to be in transit, pushing toward a newer, bolder sound one minute and hitting the road for a worldwide tour the next. Sometimes, those two things happen at once. With 747 , Lady Antebellum's fifth album, the band captures the speed and spirit of its critically- acclaimed live show in 11 new songs. Bandmates Charles Kelley, Hillary Scott and Dave Haywood may have formed the group in Nashville, with all three singers harmonizing for the first time around Haywood's piano, but they earned their stripes on the road. That's where Lady Antebellum truly came alive, mixing the rootsy stomp of forward-thinking Country music with the swooning, sweeping sound of three voices that were born to mesh. As the shows got bigger, so did the band's ambition. Written during the 2014 Take Me Downtown Tour, 747 — whose title rustles up the image of a fast-moving plane bound for bigger, better places — doubles as a metaphor for the group itself. After spending years at the top of the Country charts, Lady Antebellum is ready to pull up the wheels and climb even higher. "We started discovering more of an 'in your face' sound that we'd never explored before, so we began writing towards that mentality," says Kelley, who remembers walking into a dance bar after a Lady Antebellum concert and feeling the need to compose faster, fiercer songs that could live in that environment.
