Strategic Plan for St. Simons Island
GREENPRINT
The Greenprint, or strategic plan, was developed in 2004 with extensive public input by St. Simons Land Trust consultants. For the first time, it identified areas of focus and provided a guideline for our activities.
The focus of the plan was updated in 2008 following a series of community meetings to seek additional public input. At these meetings, we initiated a conversation with island residents about the need for a pro-active land conservation program to protect 500 additional acres of land over the next five years.
We believe that an aggressive and better-funded conservation program could be directed to creating a better balance of open space and developed properties. Using both public and private funds, the amount of protected open space could be increased and the public could gain greater access to active and passive parks located throughout the island.
