Regional Planning Councils (RPCs) are quasi-governmental organizations that are designated by Florida law (''Ch. 186, Florida Statutes'') to address problems and plan solutions that are of greater-than-local concern or scope, and are to be recognized by local governments as one of the means to provide input into state policy development. With regard to transportation-related issues, RPCs are empowered to provide technical assistance to local governments on growth management matters; coordinate land development and transportation policies in a manner that fosters region-wide transportation systems; review local government comprehensive plan amendments, evaluation/appraisal reports, and Developments of Regional Impacts for consistency with state and regional plans; and, review the plans of independent transportation authorities and metropolitan planning organizations to identify inconsistencies between those plans and applicable local government plans. ==RPC Products== In addition to various studies of the resources of the region, the principal product of each RPC is the ''Strategic Regional Policy Plan (SRPP)''. The ''SRPP'' identifies key regional resources and facilities, examines current and forecast conditions and trends (including expected growth patterns), and establishes regional goals and policies that guide a program of actions to address identified problems and needs. An example of strategic subject areas that a ''SRPP'' may address includes affordable housing, economic development, emergency preparedness, natural resources and regional transportation. RPCs may also be involved in a variety of other programs other than growth management, such as emergency preparedness programs planning, GIS services, statistical analysis, small business development and public health projects. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Regional Planning Councils」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
