Regional, Local & Water Resources Planning services include land use, water resources, municipal, hazard/flood mitigation, main street revitalization, and historic preservation planning in addition to local government support and training/workshop/conference development and coordination.
Flood & Hazard Mitigation Planning services involve risk assessment, establishing goals and objectives, and mitigation strategies, along with adoption and approval and a stakeholder and public outreach process. G/FLRPC can develop flood & hazard mitigation plans and evaluate appropriate mitigation activities to reduce or eliminate the long-term risks posed by these hazards to the communities of our region.
Historic Preservation Planning involves long-range vision, goals and objectives and recommended implementation actions. The preservation planning process establishes the basis for public policy; identifies economic opportunities based on heritage and architectural character; and provides the foundation for the protection of historic resources.
Main Street Revitalization planning at G/FLRPC involves assisting communities with Main Street issues. G/FLRPC views the region's Main Streets as current, former, or potential community centers. The role of land use, environmental resources, economic development, and the condition of Main Streets are all related and G/FLRPC is able to assist communities with many of these issues.
Municipal Planning includes comprehensive planning, land use controls, and other planning local planning services.
Water Resources Planning encompasses a variety of services, which advance the overall goal of protecting and improving water quality and quantity. As a regional agency, G/FLRPC is able to examine and coordinate water resource issues at a watershed wide level. Services include watershed management planning, wellhead protection and implementation of state and federal regulations. Assistance is provided to member municipalities with land use regulation and their relationship to water quality, proposal and grant development, and outreach and education.
Brownfields are abandoned, idled, or under-used industrial and commercial facilities where expansion or redevelopment is complicated by real or perceived environmental contamination. |
