Hall County Quality Growth Study
Center for Quality Growth and Regional Development
2004
ABSTRACT
Hall County is experiencing unprecedented growth in part due to the attraction
of the nearby Atlanta metropolitan region, the recreational
opportunities afforded by Lake Sidney Lanier, the availability of
moderately priced housing, and its transportation infrastructure, among
other things. To help Hall County's leaders and citizens respond to the
challenges posed by the forecasted growth, the Center for Quality Growth
and Regional Development explored Hall County's economic development,
transportation, green infrastructure, and livability opportunities and
constraints. The findings and recommendations contained in this report
are intended to improve quality of life, preserve the subregion's
environmental and cultural character, and strengthen the local economy
for the present and the future. This study is part of an overall effort
conducted in partnership with Georgia Tech's Economic Development Institute
(EDI).
