Floodplain Zoning Policy Framework and Policy Guidance Note. 2015

December 1, 2015

The Floodplain Zoning Policy Framework aims to integrate flood risk management into the land use planning process in Georgia. The purpose of this report is to present the floodplain zoning policy and the associated development control rules to help guide future developments in the Rioni basin away from the highest flood risk zones, and to enhance climate change resilient flood risk management within the Rioni floodplain. The Floodplain Zoning Policy for Rioni basin will eventually form the basis of national policy with application to other basins in Georgia.
