Braselton releases comprehensive draft plan for public review

After months of analysis, meetings with the community, and assessing many ideas, Braselton’s draft comprehensive plan is ready for review and feedback.

Braselton hired a consultant team to develop the town’s 20-year Comprehensive Plan Update. The goal is to update the existing 2030 Comprehensive Plan to create a 20-year policy document that guides the future growth of the town and promotes the needs, goals, and objectives of the community.
