The Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code (MPC) provides incentives to municipalities engaging in multi-municipal planning. Developing a multi-municipal plan also provides a method for municipal leaders to enhance their community's future quality of life.
Multi-Municipal Planning Basics is a free program specifically for those interested in learning more about multi-municipal planning. Training content is based on the “Growing Smarter” amendments to the Pennsylvania MPC and will cover a variety of topics including:
Bring a Training “Buddy”
If you are interested by the prospect of multi-municipal planning as a tool for effective land use management in your community, then this program is for you. However, as the name implies, “multi-municipal” means the participation of more than one municipality. Therefore, when registering for this free program, it is recommended that you bring at least one official from a neighboring community. Others from your community, including interested citizens, may also attend.
Even if you and your training “buddy” haven’t formally started work on a joint project, you will want to attend this training together. By attending with a neighbor, you will obtain the program’s maximum benefit by being able to contemplate the “real world” circumstance of your community and those that surround and impact you.
There is no fee for this program
