The growth plan puts school partnerships on a five-year calendar

For 2027–31, Chattahoochee Hills’ adopted comprehensive plan puts school partnerships on the city’s to-do list: coordination with local schools and school boards, with up to two meetings a year.⁠[1]

City Council unanimously approved the plan October 6, according to draft action minutes. Our earlier adoption report covered the approval but left its date unresolved; the draft minutes examined for this account identify October 6 in both the heading and footer.⁠[2]

The school provisions address needs the plan itself identifies. Its issues summary describes education and youth recreation as constraints on growth and calls out gaps in K–12, workforce and continuing education. Its broader strategy seeks potential partnerships with Fulton County Schools, Chattahoochee Hills Charter School, private schools and universities.⁠[1]

There is a potentially confusing entry elsewhere in the document. The backward-looking Report of Accomplishments marks an earlier task—supporting improved performance and perception of educational options—as canceled, explaining that it was “No longer a priority for government action.” That entry gives no cancellation date.⁠[1]

That is not the same as removing education from the new plan. The forward-looking work program explicitly retains school coordination as item CF.6, with work marked for every year from 2027 through 2031.⁠[1]

The scale of that commitment is coordination, not a school-building project: CF.6 estimates its cost as staff time, lists the General Fund as the funding source and names the city, Chattahoochee Hills Charter School and Fulton County Schools as responsible parties. Those are planning assignments—not evidence that the meetings have already happened.⁠[1]
