Pathway to a Resilient Future Regional Strategies for East Central Iowa

The East Central Iowa Council of Governments (ECICOG) is developing a pathway for a more resilient future for East Central Iowa.

All information, progress updates, feedback opportunities, and documents for this planning effort will be posted on this website.

Community Engagement

ECICOG is hosting listening sessions designed to build a resilient future through emission reduction strategies. These interactive gatherings will share regional environmental impacts and gather community input on priorities for a thriving future. Participants will be guided through a series of stations to provide feedback. Content generated during these sessions will be used to write a regional resilience plan. The event schedule is available in the Key Dates!
