Great ideas from around the region
Local governments and other partners are implementing Metro Vision, helping the region advancing toward its desired outcomes in ways that best fit local circumstances. Communities can learn from each other’s ideas and experiences with common challenges or taking advantage of similar opportunities.
Principle: Metro Vision offers ideas for local implementation: Local governments can use Metro Vision as they make decisions about land use, transportation planning and a range of related issues. Metro Vision also helps local governments coordinate their efforts with one another and other organizations.
DRCOG offers a forum
Metro Vision Idea Exchanges allow the region’s residents, planners, local government staff and other stakeholders to share information and ideas. The virtual forums identify local and regional success stories worth continuing, as well as emerging and ongoing challenges requiring action. DRCOG hosts four to six Metro Vision Idea Exchanges each year. Topics range from transportation accessibility and housing market trends to water planning and public health policy.
