Public Input Requested for Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area

The Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area is currently seeking public input on potential changes to commercial service operations within the park, including food vendors, guides and rentals.

The park is preparing a Commercial Services Strategy study to identify opportunities where it can enhance the park’s mission and the visitor experience through public/private partnerships.

The purpose of the study is to:

• Determine the desired future conditions of the park for visitor use and private business
• Analyze potential business opportunities that have been recommended by visitors, volunteers, current business operators and park staff
• Create a tool for quickly and easily evaluating existing and potential businesses
• Prioritize business opportunities and outline an action plan for potential implementation

More detailed information on the development of the Commercial Services Strategy for the park can be found online.

For further information, or to provide feedback, please contact Kelly Chang, or William Gordon, Jr. at 678-538-1227. Comments will be accepted until Wednesday, July 20.
