Project stages
The project work stages and their progress.
Review of existing studies, data collection, and preparation of the project work plan.
During the initial phase of the project, existing data and previous studies were collected and reviewed, the project area was assessed through preliminary site visits, meetings were held with key stakeholders, and the city's main challenges were identified. This phase established the project's work plan and methodology, providing the foundation for the implementation of the subsequent planning stages.
Development of the Vision and Strategic Framework
The purpose of this phase is to establish a shared vision and strategic directions for the future development of Ozurgeti. The process is informed by research findings and builds on insights into the city's needs and development potential gathered through the active participation of the local community, the municipality, central government institutions, and other key stakeholders.
Concept Development
During this phase, the Spatial Development Concept for Ozurgeti is being prepared. It defines the city's fundamental spatial structure and the principles guiding its spatial organization, establishes the functional and spatial framework, and identifies priority development areas, strategic projects, and key interventions. The Concept is presented to stakeholders and the wider public for consultation and feedback before being refined and finalized. It subsequently serves as the foundation for preparing the General Plan and guiding the city's long-term development.
Preparation of the General Plan
Building on the Spatial Development Concept, the Ozurgeti General Plan will establish the principles of land use and functional zoning, define the development directions for mobility and the transport network, set out the framework for engineering infrastructure, green and recreational systems, and identify the key measures for protecting cultural heritage and supporting the city's sustainable development. The General Plan will be prepared in accordance with applicable legislation and established spatial planning standards.
Priority Investment Project List
In parallel with the preparation of the Spatial Development Concept and the General Plan, a Priority Investment Project Package will be developed. The package will identify the key projects required to support the city's development, establish their implementation priorities and phasing, and outline potential sources of financing.
