Community Action Group

A Community-Based effort to support and promote Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay

In 2003, Governor Perdue established action groups in each of the thirteen (13) Georgia communities privileged to have a military installation.  The action groups were given the name of Community Action Groups, or CAG.  The purpose of CAG is to provide an interface between the Georgia Military Affairs Coordinating Committee (GMACC) and Georgia’s Military bases as well as focusing community efforts to promote and support Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay.

 Objectives:

• Supporting the Mission of Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay

• Supporting Local Governments

• Facilitating Economic Development

• Improving Quality-of-Life in Camden County

The responsibilities are to:

• Evaluate base or installation in terms of mission value, quality of life, and excess capacity

• Undertake action to resolve community-based issues

• Report to the GMACC board of directors those issues best addressed at the state or local level

• Raise funds for operational expenses or for local projects and/or studies

• Report quarterly to the board of directors of GMACC

Additional information on responsibilities of the Community Action Group and the work performed and products produced can be found in the Library.
