Chattooga County has expanded the boundaries of its Urban Redevelopment Area, adding new parcels of land to the county’s long-running revitalization initiative.

According to county records, the update was approved through a formal resolution signed by the county commissioner. The amendment adds additional parcels in the northern section of the existing redevelopment zone and updates the county’s official redevelopment map.

County officials say the move is intended to support economic development, encourage housing opportunities, and improve the overall quality of life for residents. Leaders also say the expansion creates a more cohesive redevelopment footprint and provides greater flexibility for future planning and investment efforts.

While no specific projects tied to the newly added parcels have been announced, officials say the changes are designed to help position the county for long-term growth and future redevelopment opportunities.

The amendment reportedly took effect immediately upon adoption and is now part of the county’s official redevelopment framework.
