Testimonials
Your Voice Matters
We value citizen input, and our work has earned recognition from respected organizations,
including the American Planner's Association and the Orton Foundation.
Orton Family Foundation Case Study
The Newton Community has done more, committed more and achieved more in the way of collaborative planning than any other small-scale community we know of in the US. And, this has occurred during the worst economic downturn in modern times.

University of Georgia School of Environment and Design, Advisor to the Orton Family Foundation
Economics of Land Use
I work with local governments across the southeast on issues related to the economics of land use and I can assure you that Newton County is one of a very small number of communities where the various leaders actually talk to each other in an organized way.

Economic development and sustainability goals
One great example is the Leadership Collaborative established by several municipalities and the county in Newton County GA to come to grips with the ever- outward expansion of metro Atlanta.
