The Treasure Coast Regional Planning
Council is
the Treasure Coast's only regional forum where elected and
appointed
leaders
regularly
come together to discuss complex regional issues, develop
strategic regional responses for resolving them, and build
consensus for setting and accomplishing regional goals. Elected
officials serve annual terms and gubernatorial appointees
serve three-year terms. TCRPC is made up of nineteen elected
officials and nine gubernatorial appointees. |
| |
|
|
| Council operates a number of programs
and services for regional planning and economic development
designed to satisfy the needs of its public and private sector
customers and foster the healthy and orderly growth of the
Region. |

TCRPC is a not-for-profit
organization created by and for local governments to provide planning
and technical
assistance services to assist in carrying out Florida's growth
management programs. TCRPC was established in 1976 through an interlocal
agreement between Indian River, St. Lucie, Martin, and Palm Beach
counties. Membership includes all four counties and 49 municipalities. |

It works quickly and efficiently in bringing
communities together to: |
|
| |
 |
provide a forum and mechanism
by which local governments can avoid and resolve inter-jurisdictional
conflicts in a positive manner |
|
allow for cost sharing and savings between
local governments and minimize the need for duplicative efforts |
|
assure that state and federal goals and objectives
are carried out with respect for local and regional desires
and conditions |
|
establish a local government think tank for
early identification of opportunities |
|
respond to local government requests for assistance.
Council responds to over 1,000 requests annually for planning
assistance |

TCRPC provides the necessary
leadership to develop coherent policy and strategies by which different
agencies and levels of government can act cooperatively. It provides
both state and local policy makers with information they need to
solve problems and build a better future for their residents. It
is a strong advocate for local governments in issues where federal
and state involvement and interest are a concern. |
|
| |
|

TCRPC works exactly as
it was intended, and it does its job well. It is a nationally recognized
leader in grass roots community involvement, education and urban
design programs aimed at revitalizing communities and keeping the
Region competitive.
This regional council is not afraid to raise new issues and has the unique ability
to address them. It is difficult to influence except by facts and logic. It represents
the conscience of its local jurisdictions. |
