Plan for the future – what is Imagine 2050?

One of our biggest responsibilities is to create a regional development guide every 10 years. Our latest guide – Imagine 2050 – envisions the future we collectively want for this region in 30 years. It’s informed by the values and desired outcomes spelled out in the current comprehensive plans of the 7 counties and 181 cities and townships in the Twin Cities metro region.

Imagine 2050 includes policies for how we will plan for and interact with land, transportation, water, housing, and parks and trails. Local governments will use it to guide a wide range of plans and actions for shared infrastructure like roads, sewers, regional parks, housing, water supply, and more.
