The Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grant Program supports collaborative planning across metropolitan and multijurisdictional areas. This grant is for integrating housing, land use, economic development, transportation, and infrastructure investments. Its purpose is to help jurisdictions tackle critical challenges like economic competitiveness, social equity, energy use, climate change, public health, and environmental impact. The Program prioritizes partnerships, including nontraditional ones (e.g., arts, culture, public health, food systems), to develop strategies for long-term development and reinvestment. Successful proposals will demonstrate a commitment to regional issues, utilize data for progress monitoring, and involve stakeholders and residents in decision-making, aiming to create more livable and resilient communities.

Description: | The Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grant Program (Program) supports metropolitan and multijurisdictional planning efforts that integrate housing, land use, economic and workforce development, transportation, and infrastructure investments in a manner that empowers jurisdictions to consider the interdependent challenges of: (1) economic competitiveness and revitalization; (2) social equity, inclusion, and access to opportunity; (3) energy use and climate change; and (4) public health and environmental impact. The Program places a priority on investing in partnerships, including nontraditional partnerships (e.g., arts and culture, recreation, public health, food systems, regional planning agencies and public education entities) that translate the Livability Principles (Section I.C.1) into strategies that direct long-term development and reinvestment, demonstrate a commitment to addressing issues of regional significance, use data to set and monitor progress toward performance goals, and engage stakeholders and residents in meaningful decision-making roles. |
