Tyrone will present more details about its Town Center Plan at a community event on April 30. From 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. in Shamrock Park, attendees can learn more about the town’s ongoing Livable Centers Initiative project and offer input on the process. The LCI study is being funded by a $160,000 grant from the Atlanta Regional Commission to map out the town’s vision for its future development. The POND Co. was chosen in late 2020 to assist with the plan’s formulation.
Residents provided initial input during a 2017 comprehensive plan discussion; a steering committee comprising local residents and business and property owners is now guiding the downtown master plan. The plan will analyze land use, transportation, jobs, businesses and housing before doing a market analysis and devising a concept plan for implementing new designs and policies. Updates will be delivered via newsletters, public meetings and social media. Details are at www.tyrone.org/LCI.
