Grenada County Build Better Together 2040 Plan

Plan Amendment Process

The Grenada County 2040 Plan should be a flexible document that allows for adjustment to changing conditions
over time. Shifts in political, economic, physical, technological and social conditions, and other unforeseen
circumstances, may influence and change the priorities and fiscal outlook of the community. As Grenada County
evolves, new issues will emerge while others will no longer be as relevant. Some action statements will be found
impractical or outdated while other plausible solutions will arise. To ensure that it continues to reflect the
overall goals of the community and remains relevant over time, the Plan must be revisited regularly to confirm
that the Plan elements are still on point and the associated goals and action strategies are still appropriate.
When interim Plan amendments are needed, and eventually more significant Plan updates, they typically
involve:
 Reviewing the community’s base conditions and anticipated growth trends;
 Re-evaluating the Plan findings and formulating new ones as necessary; and

 Adding, revising or removing action strategies in the Plan based on implementation progress.

Annual Progress Report

County staff should prepare an annual progress report for
presentation to the Board of Supervisors. This ensures that the
Plan is consistently reviewed and that any needed modifications
or clarifications are identified for the next Plan amendment
cycle. The Annual Progress Report should include and highlight:
 Significant actions and accomplishments during the last
year, along with the status of each programmed task from
the Plan.
 Obstacles or problems in implementing the Plan.
 Proposed content amendments that have come forward
during the year.
 Recommendations for needed actions, programs and
procedures to be developed and implemented in the
coming year, including capital projects, other Annual Report - City of Decatur, Georgia
programs/projects to be funded, and priority coordination
needs with public and private implementation partners.
