The City of Albany and Dougherty County, recognized as Qualified Local Governments, invites proposals from qualified and experienced consulting firms or collaborative teams to develop the 2046 Albany-Dougherty County Comprehensive Plan. This comprehensive planning initiative aims to create a sustainable vision for the community's future that reflects its residents' unique needs and desires. The selected consulting team will facilitate community engagement by organizing interactive public workshops and meetings. These sessions will gather input from community leaders, stakeholders, and residents to collaboratively identify the planning and development goals that will shape the future of Albany and Dougherty County. Key factors to be considered during this planning process will include local economic conditions, potential future land use scenarios, historic preservation efforts, demographic trends, and natural growth patterns — all of which will inform the identification of critical capital improvement projects that will be identified in the Community Work Program.
