Pike County to hold Community Collaboration Meetings to gather input on Implementable Comprehensive Plan
Come out and share your voice at the Pike County Implementable Comprehensive Plan Community Collaboration Meetings on August 16th and 17th!
Learn about the planning process, review results from the Comprehensive Plan Community Survey, and give your feedback on the future priorities for the County related to transportation, housing, land use, preservation, infrastructure, economic development, and much more.
Three Community Collaboration Meetings will be held at different locations in the County to reach as many people as possible. The meeting schedule is:

All meetings are ‘open house’ style and will be staffed by the County’s Comprehensive Plan Consultant Michael Baker International and County staff. Learn more at www.pikepa.org or by calling 570-296-3500.
The County updates it’s comprehensive plan to provide a framework for future growth, development, and preservation activities. The Comprehensive Plan Update will utilize the PA Department of Community and Economic Development Implementable Plan model to create a plan that is actionable and measurable. The planning process will continue with an expected adoption in Spring 2024.
Pike County’s Community Planning & Mapping Office is responsible for the administration of the project. Pike County has contracted with the firm Michael Baker International to manage the planning process and draft the Implementable Comprehensive Plan Update. Michael Baker has also brought in The Institute, an economic research and applied research consulting group based in Wilkes Barre, PA, to support the project.
