Get oriented to PLan Chattanooga

Plan Chattanooga is a “comprehensive plan” for the city. It provides for the first time in Chattanooga’s history a planning framework equal to our peer cities in the U.S. The plan outlines growth challenges and infrastructure needs over a 20-year planning horizon and strategies for implementation. It is organized into a citywide framework with shared goals, policies, and concepts, and eight area chapters.

You can comment on the plan chapters and the Place Type policy map using the tools below.
