Strategic Plan Legislative Committee’s Strategic Plan

In December of 2019 the APA-NC Executive Committee endorsed the Legislative Committee’s Strategic Plan. The plan identifies a vision statement for the Legislative Committee, its goals and objectives, and the actions to be undertaken by the Committee in pursuit of those goals. Emphasis is placed on building positive relationships with legislators, advocating for beneficial legislation with our partners, helping members of the public recognize the value of planning, and assisting local governments in adapting to changing legislation. The plan has a five-year horizon (until 2025), and will be supplemented by an annual work program. Please visit the Legislative Committee Strategic Plan for more details.

The Legislative Committee is comprised of planners from across the State who are interested in legislative advocacy and issues. We are always looking for planners and interested members to join us in our efforts. Please reach out to the Legislative Chair for more information on how to get involved.

Legislative Committee Vision Statement

The APA-NC Legislative Committee will inform and equip North Carolina planners to better participate in the legislative process and build lasting relationships with strategic partners and the General Assembly in pursuit of beneficial planning legislation. We will serve as an objective source of information on the anticipated impacts of proposed legislation, and will raise awareness of the value of planning in North Carolina communities. We will provide assistance to planners and local governments in adapting to changes in planning-related legislation.
