The Chatham County – Savannah Comprehensive Plan
Plan 2040 Has Been Adopted!
Plan 2040, our Comprehensive Plan, is a shared vision for the future of our community. The Comprehensive Plan is a guide for the short- and long-term growth, redevelopment, and preservation
of Chatham County, Garden City, Pooler and Savannah. It reflects the community's values and goals, and lays out strategies to achieve them. Continued progress of our community must
follow a strategic approach that balances a desirable built environment, economic development, natural resources, transportation options, and a high quality of life for all of our residents.
Plan 2040 is a five-year update of Chatham County and the City of Savannah’s existing Comprehensive Plan that will be used by local officials as a guide to help make policy decisions
regarding the community's growth and development for the next twenty years.
Thank you for everything you have contributed to this plan which will guide our communities’ decisions over the next 20 years and shape our communities for generations to come.
We could not have done this without you. You can view each of the full Comprehensive Plans for
Garden City,
Pooler,

County. Plan 2040 can be downloaded in PDF format using the links below.
