Just Industry

Goal 2

Vision Statement

Development, industry, and community partners in East Point are socially responsible stewards, supporting healthy communities for all residents.

Goal Description

East Point should engage with residents to articulate a clear vision for the City as a home for equitable, sustainable industrial jobs, integrate this new vision into zoning code, and establish regulatory/finance mechanisms such as Impact Fees to ensure that communities are protected and directly benefit from a healthy industrial base. The City should solicit community input immediately around establishing a Community Benefits Ordinance that ensures that entities receiving incentives for development establish Community Benefits Agreements with communities impacted by their project.
