ROLE OF NORTERHN SUBURBS IS CHANGING
Full Description:
The Atlanta region will continue to face significant growth over the next 25 years, adding 2.3 million residents and 2 million jobs. With more growth than ever on the south side, the northern suburbs, in particular Cobb, north Fulton and Gwinnett counties, will need to manage growth much smarter than in the past.
Water quality and quantity, air quality and traffic congestion will demand more transparent, cost-effective and coordinated solutions. Unlike the prior three decades, during which the northern suburbs encountered primarily residential growth, they are now becoming major employment centers, with more than half of the new jobs in the region coming to the north side. Making our air quality and transportation concerns more complicated, these jobs will be filled from within their counties, from Atlanta and now from the exurbs as residents look for affordable housing.
