Planning & Zoning

Plan 2040

Our Mission

The mission of the Planning and Zoning Department is to effectively manage community change in the short and long term with regards to land use, transportation, historic preservation and overall development, in order to create a sustainable, livable, and economically successful future for the citizens of Henry County.

The means by which the Planning and Zoning Department is to effectively manage community change is the comprehensive review and approval of all developments within the City of Stockbridge and unincorporated areas of Henry County. In addition, the Planning and Zoning Department interprets and implements the goals and objectives of the Joint Comprehensive Development Plan and interprets the regulations and requirements of the Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances.
