From Vision to Reality

Since 2010, the Creating Sustainable Places Coordinating Committee has led a regional effort to make the Kansas City region more vibrant, connected and green,

With funding from a three-year HUD Sustainable Communties Planning Grant, and building on existing local and regional plans, we have a lot of accomplishments to celebrate:

Guiding principles for sustainable development.
New tools for visualization and analysis.
New data and maps, including an updated Natural Resources Inventory.
A sustainable code framework for local governments and indicators to evaluate progress.
An equity network that is working to make sure everyone in the region has the opportunity to participate, contribute and connect.
Demonstration projects that tie it all together.

Please join us as we celebrate the successes that are making our regional vision a reality and talk about where we go from here.
