About the NEOSCC Proposal

The Northeast Ohio Sustainable Communities Consortium’s (NEOSCC) Vibrant Northeast Ohio initiative is focused on advancing a quality, connected twelve-county region amidst today's economic climate and stretched resources. Through a diverse group of member organizations and region-wide engagement, the NEOSCC initiative will develop concrete plans while producing collaborative capacity for  action. The aim of these efforts is to create a vibrant and resilient Northeast Ohio that increases our quality of life; connects our communities; welcomes diversity; restores and protects our natural resources; and creates a competitive economic framework for the vitality of our region.

In order to manage the three-year planning process, the Northeast Ohio Sustainable Communities Consortium (NEOSCC) was established in January 2011. The NEOSCC will develop a coordinated and integrated approach to planning efforts for land use, transportation, economic and workforce development, and infrastructure investments for a 12-county planning area comprised of Ashtabula, Cuyahoga, Geauga, Lake, Lorain, Mahoning, Medina, Portage, Summit, Stark, Trumbull and Wayne counties.

A small staff, participating members of the consortium, community leaders, and consultants, will lead the program work. During the course of the plan development, a variety of engagement efforts will be launched to facilitate input from stakeholders throughout the entire Northeast Ohio region.
