Community-Based Planning
Community-based planning is a local voluntary planning process that is designed to build, strengthen and support community structures. The overall intent of community-based planning is to develop a comprehensive and well-managed plan that jurisdictions can utilize to guide local community development initiatives. The process directly engages community leaders and the broad-based citizenry in an active effort to move their community from today’s reality to tomorrow’s possibilities. With a basic understanding of community and community development, along with the techniques involved in the process of community-based planning, local constituents become actively involved at the community level and serve as an influential resource in moving the planning process forward.
