Sustainable Communities Task Force

Cape Fear Council of Governments

The COG was awarded $1.13 million to develop a Lower Cape Fear Regional Plan for Sustainable Development. The Regional Plan for Sustainable Development will integrate choices and decisions surrounding housing, economic development, transportation, energy, water and environmental quality. The plan will build upon the values unique among the region’s communities, and include a variety of viable options for transportation, workforce housing and that works in collaboration to advance common goals. Once completed, the regional plan will be used as a guide for local and regional entities when creating or amending their plans, policies, regulations or programs and will be used to align the plans, policies and regulations that already exist in the region.

Anticipated Project Benefits

  • The plan will enable the Lower Cape Fear region to meet the challenges of economic competitiveness with revitalization.
  • The plan will enable the region to meet the challenges of rapid population growth with social equity, inclusion and access to opportunity.
  • The plan will enable the region to meet the challenges of climate change and energy use in a manner that minimizes impacts to public health and the environment.
