Community Work Program Appendix 3 Appendix 3 November 2017 COMMUNITY WORK PROGRAM APPENDIX 3 APPENDIX 3 NOVEMBER 2017 2040 COMMUNITY WORK PROGRAM The purpose of the Community Work Program is to identify specific implementation actions the local government, or other entities, intend to undertake over the course of the next five (5) year planning period. This includes, but is not limited to, new facilities, expansion of facilities, new ordinances, revisions of existing ordinances, administrative actions, community improvements or investments, infrastructure, financing arrangements, or other programs or initiatives to be put in place to implement the plan. To facilitate the division of work among various County Divisions, the community work program is segmented by the following elements: Land Use, Transportation, Housing, Community Facilities, Natural and Historic Resources, Human Services, Economic Development, Public Safety, Disaster Resilience, Intergovernmental Coordination, Military Compatibility, and Place-Making.

  • 137 CHAPTER 5 NATURAL RESOURCES ELEMENT What Are
    Chapter 5 Natural Resources Element (June 20, 2005 Draft) 137 Roswell, Georgia, Comprehensive Plan 2025 CHAPTER 5 NATURAL RESOURCES ELEMENT What are the natural features which make a township handsome? A river, with its waterfalls and meadows, a lake, a hill, a cliff or individual rocks, a forest, and ancient trees standing singly. Such things are beautiful; they have a high use which dollars and cents never represent. If the inhabitants of a town were wise, they would seek to preserve these things, though at a considerable expense… Henry David Thoreau, Journal, 1861 (Quoted in Dramstad, Olson, and Forman 1996) The Natural Resources Element provides the City with the opportunity to inventory natural and environmentally sensitive resources; to consider the issues, problems and opportunities associated with those resources; and to develop goals, policies and strategies for their appropriate use, conservation and protection that are consistent with those established for other Plan elements. An assessment of natural resources must be conducted to consider how they can most wisely and responsibly be utilized, developed, managed or preserved in order to yield maximum long- range benefits to the community. The assessment should also consider the potential vulnerability of the community's natural resources to land development and other human activities and evaluate whether protecting them is important to the future health and economic well being of the community. Levels of community support for conservation of various natural resources should also be considered. The results of this assessment should be considered in the development of needs and goals and an associated implementation strategy that sets forth any special treatment or protection to be provided these resources over the planning period.

  • 222 CHAPTER 8 URBAN DESIGN ELEMENT Urban Design Has Been
    Chapter 8 Urban Design Element (June 20, 2005 Draft) 222 Roswell, GA, Comprehensive Plan 2025 CHAPTER 8 URBAN DESIGN ELEMENT Urban design has been a key public policy concern in Roswell for more than three decades. The architectural design of development within the Historic District has been reviewed and approved by the Historic Preservation Commission (see Chapter 6 of this Comprehensive Plan), formerly established as an Civic Design Commission before the Historic Preservation Act of 1980. In addition, for more than two decades, a Design Review Board has reviewed the architecture, site design, landscaping. Long before the adoption of design guidelines was the “trendy” thing for proactive municipalities to do, Roswell prepared, adopted, and implemented design guidelines for selected areas of the City. Together, these programs of architectural and site design review have helped Roswell to preserve its past, ensure quality development, and guide its future in a way that maintains and enhances its character. An Urban Design Element is not required by State rules for local planning, but given it’s past emphasis on urban design, Roswell prepared and adopted an Urban Design Element in 2000, as a part of its 2020 Comprehensive Plan. In 2000, the need to recognize all adopted design guidelines was the primary concern of the Urban Design Element. Another concern at that time related to the character and design of the City as a whole. Having divided the City into different design districts, there was some concern that the City and its Design Review Board might be losing sight of its character as a whole.

  • Comprehensive System-Wide Recreation Master Plan 2001 - 2010
    COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEM-WIDE RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2001 - 2010 For The CITY OF ROSWELL RECREATION COMMISSION JANUARY 2001 Prepared By ROBERT G. BETZ AICP, INC. Lilburn, Georgia INTRODUCTION The Roswell recreation system is an excellent example of what can be accomplished through the application of sound planning principles, the timely expenditure of acquisition and development dollars and the exercise of diligence in system-wide operation and maintenance practices. It is truly one of the finest systems in the southeastern United States. This, the Comprehensive System-Wide Recreation Master Plan is the fifth update to the original Action Plan for Recreation, prepared in 1969. With the exception of the 1992 Update to the Master Recreation Plan that covered an eight-year period, updates have been prepared at roughly five-year intervals. Each update has focused on the identification of land acquisition needs, making improvements to existing parks and facilities and establishing development priorities for new parks. A system-wide recreation master plan is an expression of a community's objectives, needs and priorities for leisure space, facilities, programs and service delivery. As such, it provides guidance for municipal policy formulation and the decision-making process as relates to the quality and location of recreation opportunities. It is therefore the intent of the 2000 Update to the Master Recreation Plan to accurately reflect community desires while presenting imaginative new recreational opportunities that are both functional and realistic and practical to implement. The preparation of the Comprehensive System-Wide Recreation Master Plan (the 2000 Plan) encompasses the ten-year period beginning in fiscal year 2001.
