Phase III – Building a Clear and Shared Regional Land Use Framework
The purpose of Phase III of Going Places initiative is to develop a clear and shared land use vision, represented by the 2040 Regional Growth Framework for the Miami Valley Region. Building upon the findings from the first phase assessing the existing conditions and the seven alternative future land use scenarios built from the future landscape exploration phase, the final phase is to select a final preferred scenario, develop a 2040 Regional Growth Framework, and build consensus around it.
We have designed three presentations that will take you through all the material that was presented at the five public Open Houses held in August, 2011.
Development in this scenario will be concentrated around regional assets and in areas that already have the infrastructure to support it.

You helped us to pick a final land use scenario…now come see the result!
Over 1,200 people from all over the Miami Valley Region have told us how they would like to see land used in the Region over the next 30 years. The results are in, and we're excited to share them with you at one of our 5 open houses!

The 2040 Regional Growth Framework is not to set traditional land use designations such as future residential, commercial, or industrial areas. Instead, it is to provide a framework for promoting a desired future land use patterns at the regional level by identifying areas that are preferred by the general public and appropriate for future development, re-development and preservation. However, the 2040 Regional Growth Framework is more than a map. It also represents core values, principles, and characteristics that the Region shares. As such, the 2040 Regional growth Framework is intended to serve as resources and guidelines enabling the Region to make progress with a shared vision. Also, it is to provide a regional perspective during local communities’ future land use policy and/or land development efforts.
View the Phase III 2040 Regional Growth Framework Development, which provides a roadmap of how the 2040 Regional Growth Framework will be developed during Phase III.
Preferred Scenario Development
People in the Region were given several opportunities to vote on the seven Future Land Use Scenarios that were the result of Phase II. This report presents the final results of the voting process and an analysis of the responses.
As part of the preferred scenario development process, a phone survey designed to elicit the values of the residents of the Miami Valley Region as they related to the future of land development in the Region was conducted.
The Going Places Policy Roundtable workshop was held on June 8, 2011 at the Center for Regional Cooperation from 10:00 am to 11:30 am.
The purpose of the workshop was to discuss and solicit input from local jurisdictions and interested organizations on the subject of implementation concepts for the Going Places land use plan as the details of the final preferred scenario are currently being put together. The results of this workshop will be used as a basis for further staff evaluation of best practice concepts.
