SLIDE 21 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.
SLIDE 22 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.”
SLIDE 23 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
SLIDE 24
- 1. Kane County Planning Cooperative

90%of the new growth will be due to the land use decisions

SLIDE 29 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
agencies involved in planning
- open to elected officials,
planning commission members, appointed officials, staff, private sector planners
SLIDE 30
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.
SLIDE 31 “GO TO 2040 calls attention to the importance of collaborations between communities for transportation, housing, economic development, and
- ther 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”
SLIDE 32 Kane County Planning Cooperative
- 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
Examples
SLIDE 33
Kane County Planning Cooperative
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.
Addressing GAPS in resources
SLIDE 34 Kane County Planning Cooperative
- 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
- ther partners
Addressing GAPS in resources
SLIDE 35
Kane County Planning Cooperative
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.
Addressing GAPS in funding
SLIDE 36
Kane County Planning Cooperative
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
