2040 Plan Implementation Strategy Proposes an innovative expansion of the • implementation efforts of the 2020 and 2030 Land Resource Management Plans Fulfills the key role for counties as • described in the GO TO 2040 Plan developed for our region and adopted by the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) in 2010.
CMAP’s GO TO 2040 Implementation Strategy “Counties have a key role in the promotion of livability through their land use planning responsibilities. Many counties have regional planning commissions that provide guidance on long-range planning activities. With involvement from these groups, counties can play a key role in bridging the regional ideas and principles in GO TO 2040 with their implementation at the local level. In many parts of the region, counties also provide valuable technical assistance to municipalities and help to negotiate boundary and joint land use agreements.”
2040 Plan Implementation Strategy Promotes the 2040 Plan’s convergence of land use, transportation and health through the following four activities: 1. Creation of a Kane County Planning Cooperative 2. Continue the Planning Workshop Series 3. County Funding Decisions Consistent with Plan Goals 4. Coordination with Municipalities
1. Kane County Planning Cooperative Is the central core of the 2040 Implementation integrating health, transportation and land use
2. Continue the Workshop Series � Healthy Communities � Workshop Series
3. County Funding Decisions Consistent with Plan Goals
4. Coordination with Municipalities 90% of the new growth will be due to the land use decisions of our 30 municipalities!

Kane County Planning Cooperative • is the central core of the 2040 Implementation • integrated planning: health, transportation and land use • will fill GAPS in local planning resources • will provide education and information on critical issues • partners include all agencies involved in planning • open to elected officials, planning commission members, appointed officials, staff, private sector planners
Kane County Planning Cooperative The primary goal is to fill the GAPS for addressing current critical topics common to many of Kane County’s municipal and other partners by providing a local forum for education, analysis, communication, problem solving and by integrating health, transportation and land use planning.
“GO TO 2040 calls attention to the importance of collaborations between communities for transportation, housing, economic development, and other issues. These can often allow participating jurisdictions to access more funding and derive more benefit for themselves than they could by going it alone… Counties … can often act as the sponsors or facilitators of these efforts. Collaborations can also encompass both the public and private sectors”
Kane County Planning Cooperative Examples of GAPS • Hot topics common countywide or in sub-areas • stalled developments • model ordinances for emerging issues • Municipalities with no or overextended planning staff • Inter-jurisdictional transportation/planning / health / economic development policies and projects • Exposure to Health Impact Assessments as a planning and policy assessment tool • Availability of professional planning resources for municipal planning commissions
Kane County Planning Cooperative Addressing GAPS in resources County planners from three departments – Development, Health and Division of Transportation (KDOT) with support from CMAP, will work to enhance existing local efforts with expertise from the county and support an integrated implementation of the 2040 Plan across the county. Cooperative planning provides an opportunity to maximize resources in the most efficient manner.
Kane County Planning Cooperative Addressing GAPS in resources • Continue Healthy Communities Workshop Series • sometime in late 2012 or early 2013 • supported by Riverboat grant • nationally known speaker • Host 2 to 3 local forum meetings • focus on hot topics • bring in regional resources • Provide technical assistance to municipalities and other partners
Kane County Planning Cooperative Addressing GAPS in funding Collectively, the County and its planning partners do not have the resources to address future planning needs without competing for outside funding. Federal, state and private foundation grants are becoming more and more competitive, limiting awards to projects which are clearly tied to adopted plans and involving collaboration.
Kane County Planning Cooperative Addressing GAPS in funding Projects integrating Health, Transportation and Land Use have the greatest funding opportunities: Kane County is already a leader in this area, so partners can benefit from County successes
