Community Planning Assistance Program
The Montgomery County Community Planning Assistance Program provides technical assistance in the fields of comprehensive planning, zoning, land use, transportation, landscape design, economic development, and other disciplines on a fee-for-service basis.  Townships and boroughs can benefit from this program by entering into a planning assistance contract with our commission.  Under the contract, which typically lasts for three years, the cost of the professional planner is evenly shared between the municipality and the county.  Presently, 18 townships and 13 boroughs are participating in this program.  In addition, four regional planning organizations in Montgomery County have entered the program for assistance in drafting and implementing regional plans.  For further information about the program, contact John S.
