Public Input Wanted on Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area
Feedback wanted on commercial services for the Sandy Springs treasure.
The Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area is still asking for public input on where to make changes to its commercial service operations within the park.
Potential changes include allowing food vendors, guides and rentals within the park.
A Commercial Services Strategy study is currently being prepared to identify opportunities where enhancements can be made to the park’s mission and the visitor experience through public/private partnerships.

- 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
