Benton Place
People who live, work and own businesses in Catoosa County are invited to help plan the community’s future by sharing their input through a community survey or by attending a series of public stakeholder meetings.
Catoosa County Government, the cities of Ringgold and Fort Oglethorpe, and the Northwest Georgia Regional Commission are updating the Catoosa County Joint Comprehensive Plan, a working document that covers a broad range of activities in economic development, housing, transportation, natural and historic resources and more.
Officials said, "The county and cities need public feedback on projects that affect everyone living and working in the community. This helps to update the comprehensive plan to better represent the community’s diverse needs and desires. The plan must be updated every five years to remain eligible for many state and federal grants, loans and programs."
The community survey can be found at this

•Thursday, March 20 at 6 p.m. at the Catoosa County Administration Building, 800 Lafayette St. in Ringgold;
•Thursday, April 17 at 6 p.m. at The Colonnade, 264 Catoosa Circle in Ringgold; and
