We’re hard at work finalizing Area Plans with updated insights and community input. Here’s where things stand:
December 2024 Updates
July 2024 Updates
The Plan Hamilton Team is preparing Draft Concept Maps that layout future land uses and key projects for each Area. They are seeking your input to help inform the Plan draft document and future Place Types map (more Place Types and Area Plans info HERE). This summer, the RPA staff will be joining Hamilton County Commissioners and others for meetings and events countywide. So be on the lookout for upcoming dates and please make sure to join our mailing list or follow chcrpa on Facebook.
For a preview of findings, see the 6/25 presentation on Areas 9 & 12 HERE.
