HOW TO USE THE 2030 PLAN AND IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK

The 2030 Plan and Implementation Framework in and of itself does nothing. As mentioned previously, the County does not have the authority to mandate compliance with this or any other comprehensive plan. With the variety of local government jurisdictions in Hamilton County, and the close identity most residents have with their particular community, it would be inappropriate to engage in centralized, top-down planning for the future of the County. That is not what Community COMPASS is about.

Community COMPASS and the 2030 Plan and Implementation Framework grew from a voluntary partnership of Hamilton County communities, from collaboration on the most pressing challenges facing our region, and from consensus-building on how to best address these challenges. This broad acceptance of Community COMPASS, and the open and inclusive process to create the 2030 Plan and Implementation Framework will hopefully result in wide adoption of this plan as a decision-making framework for organizations across the public, private, and civic sectors in Hamilton County. Adoption is voluntary, and participation in various implementation efforts is open to all who can bring their experience, resources, and expertise to a particular project. Several Community COMPASS initiatives are already underway and more are sure to follow with the completion of the 2030 Plan and Implementation Framework.

Community COMPASS initiatives already in progress include the following:

  • Community Revitalization Initiative/First Suburbs Consortium of Southwest Ohio

  • Hamilton County Caucus of OKI Representatives

  • Analysis of Hamilton County's Comparative and Competitive Advantages Using Business and Industry Clusters

  • Economic Forecasting of Hamilton County Policies and Programs using Regional Economic Modeling, Inc.
    .

    The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
