Supporting Our Members
Since 1962, the Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council has provided its member governments with cutting-edge technical assistance and unique opportunities for regional collaboration.
Planning activities are primarily focused in the areas of economic development, emergency preparedness, environmental planning, resiliency planning, planning/design visualization, and geographic information systems; however, additional programs and projects that support federal/state/local government, non-profit, and private entities are also undertaken to meet the needs of the region.
The Council is a cost-effective resource when time, expertise, or sources of funding are limited. Public agencies can directly contract with the TBRPC without the need for a public procurement process, allowing our staff to serve as an immediate extension to your planning department.
Contact us to discuss your member benefits and planning support needs.
