Relocalizations offers a wide range of city and town planning services
but are formulated within a strategic relocaization framework. To do this, it is recommended that an initial municipal locality diagnostic be conducted. This is a 15 point analysis that assesses the strengths and weaknesses of a community for implementing relocaization strategies and a comprehensive plan.

** Note that most communities, particularly small ones, do not take the time to develop a set of economic development policies to guide their economic development activities. To make the most efficient use of time and resources and avoid pursuing projects and businesses that do not fit the community, it is always recommended to prepare economic development policies and plans.

This planning practice is citizen focused and locally anchored. Our work begins with a foundation of effective public participation and engagement. Without it, implementation of plans and programs will be exercises in futility or will not receive the public support necessary to fund or staff. The broader the support, the more effective the planning. The practice also focuses on you, the hiring client, and we listen closely to ensure that your goals and objectives are met. By factoring in the various perspectives and goals, we can develop a product that is community-driven, meets client goals, and can be implemented.
