Save Gas Money! MAP Workshops Come to You

Your community's planning officials don't have to spend money on gas to drive very far to attend MAP training programs. MAP's on-site workshop program brings the training to you. At an on-site workshop an instructor comes to your location, at a time and date convenient for your participants, and presents a comprehensive educational program, addressing the specific needs of your community.

Photo and Artwork Contest

The MAP is having a photo and artwork contest!

As we launch a refreshed Michigan Planner magazine, website and other printed material, we seek to showcase high quality images to help tell our stories.  A picture is worth a thousand words and we'd love to feature yours.   Images could make the cover of the magazine, or the inside, or used in other MAP educational and promotional material.  Deadline is January 2, 2019.   Click here  for all of the details.  

 MAP Creates Resource for Master Planning for Resiliency and Sustainability

This information portal is designed to help communities plan for, protect, and preserve their waterfronts. Michigan is a state rich in lakes and rivers and home to the longest freshwater coastline in the world. The list of communities that do not have some sort of waterfront is much shorter than the list of communities that do. http://www.michigancoastalcommunities.com.
