The Chatham County Comprehensive Conservation Plan offers a strategic, multi-faceted approach to managing and conserving natural resources. It integrates the latest scientific research, environmental and land use data, and local and regional planning initiatives. The Plan identifies key natural resources in the county and outlines strategies to protect a resilient network of natural areas, surface waters, working lands, and wildlife corridors. It is designed to serve as both an educational resource and a guide for reviewing development proposals and making future land use decisions. Additionally, it can help secure funding for ongoing conservation planning and projects.
