What is Planning? Planners in Your Community

Do you ever wonder what planners do — or how planning shapes your community? A planner’s job is to work with residents and elected officials to guide the layout of an entire community or region.  

As planners, we know that great communities don't "just happen."  But we also know that planners work with a host of community members to generate the ideas and energy to make communities where people thrive.
