Community planning is the process of designing and organizing spaces within a community to improve the quality of life for its residents. This involves considering factors like housing, transportation, parks, and public services. Planners work with local governments, organizations, and residents to create a vision for the future of the community. Effective community planning aims to balance economic growth with environmental sustainability and social equity. It often includes public input through meetings and surveys, allowing residents to voice their needs and preferences. Ultimately, the goal is to create vibrant, accessible, and inclusive spaces for everyone in the community.
