In the past few years, the COG Board of Directors has identified the issues and priorities where COG could add value in deepening understanding and setting direction to help address our region’s biggest, interrelated challenges.
In 2022, COG integrated these priorities into Region United, our planning framework for 2030, and area leaders are happy to see several early indicators of the success and utility of this approach. Jurisdictions have welcomed new COG grants to create affordably priced housing near transit. Increased efforts are underway for comprehensive electric vehicle infrastructure planning to help advance our climate goals. Broader application of and engagement with COG’s Equity Emphasis Areas informs decisionmakers across the region.
