Forward Together Webinar Series | Community Benefits of Planning

Benefits of Community Planning

The community planning process, whether preparing a comprehensive, recreation, housing, downtown, economic development, or other planning initiative, brings together residents, business owners, volunteers, and people of all ages and backgrounds to help shape and improve their communities. The process has innumerable benefits, including managing growth, identifying areas in need of improvement, taking advantage of funding opportunities, balancing a community's vision with reality, and bringing the community together to tackle its most pressing issues. This webinar will discuss the different types of community planning efforts and the benefits it provides communities, along with a review of local and regional examples.
