It’s Our Region, It’s Our Plan

Make a difference in local planning decisions for the region over the next 30 years. Launched in 2008 by the Berkeley-Charleston-Dorchester Council of Government’s (BCDCOG) Regional Land Planning Committee, Our Region, Our Plan is a 24-month planning process designed to create a shared vision of the tri-county region for the year 2040.  The project is seeking your input in many ways but you can contribute quickly by participating in their online survey.

Our Region, Our Plan

• Promotes thinking and decision-making on a regional scale to address shared concerns and realize common goals.

• Raises public awareness of issues and opportunities important to the economic health and quality of life in the region

• Invites the entire community to plan for our future including business and industry, community organizations, and all citizens – particularly those whose experiences and voices are too often underrepresented or overlooked.

• Provides an understanding of the costs and benefits associated with future growth and development decisions.

• Provides an opportunity to learn about alternative choices and consequences for the future of the region

• Provides a common framework, understanding, and geographic database to inform and guide local and countywide planning efforts.
