TB Resolution 2025-117d: Resolution Proclaiming October as Community Planning Month
Whereas, change is constant and affects all cities, towns, and counties; and
Whereas, planners can help navigate this change with data-driven insights and expertise that provide better choices for how people work and live; and
Whereas, the Town of Ithaca Chronology of Policy Decisions Establishing and Supporting Comprehensive Planning Process dates to 1937, established the Town of Ithaca as a leader in community
planning; and
Whereas, community planning provides an opportunity for all residents to be meaningfully involved in making choices that determine the future of their community; and
Whereas, the full benefits of planning require public elected and appointed officials who understand, support, and demand excellence in planning and plan implementation; and
Whereas, the month of October is designated as National Community Planning Month throughout the United States of America and its territories, and
Whereas, the American Planning Association endorses National Community Planning Month as an opportunity to highlight how planning is essential to every community, and how planners are
uniquely positioned to identify solutions to communities’ most difficult housing, transportation, and land use questions, and
Whereas, the celebration of National Community Planning Month gives us the opportunity to publicly recognize the participation and dedication of appointed Planning Board members who
have contributed their time and expertise to the improvement of the Town of Ithaca; and
Whereas, we recognize the many valuable contributions made by the professional planners of the Town of Ithaca and extend our heartfelt thanks for the continued commitment to public service
by these professionals; now therefore be it
Resolved that each year, the month of October is hereby designated as Community Planning Month in the Town of Ithaca in conjunction with the celebration of National Community Planning
Month.
