Residents of Chatham County are invited to share their thoughts and learn about a new off-road trail proposal at a public meeting Thursday. The Green Island Road path proposal aims to enhance recreational and transportation pathways with a 2.1-mile multipurpose trail connecting Green Island Road to Diamond Causeway.
What’s Happening: The proposed Green Island Road Path will link the cul de sac on Green Island Road to Diamond Causeway, tying into existing paths on the north side. The project seeks to provide a safe, accessible route for both recreation and commuting.
Why This Should Catch Your Attention: Your input is crucial to ensuring the project aligns with community needs and priorities. This is your chance to tell county officials what you want before they make decisions.
Meeting Details:
• Date: Thursday, Dec. 5
• Time: 4 to 7 p.m.
• Location: Skidaway Island Baptist Church, 2 Westridge Road in Savannah.
What’s Next: Attendees can expect a presentation on the project and an open forum for questions and feedback. This meeting is a chance to influence the project’s development and learn about its anticipated impact. For further details, visit the Green Island Road Path Project page online.
In The Know: While much attention is given to national politics and the workings of Congress and the White House, local government meetings are where the decisions that impact your daily life are made. City Council, County Commission, School Board Meetings, and Town Halls are where your elected leaders discuss and decide the issues that most effect your family and your community. These meetings are open to the public.
Each week, The Georgia Sun highlights some of the meetings and local government actions you need to know about in your community to keep you informed and to make sure you know what decisions your elected officials are considering and how your tax dollars are being spent.
