STEPZ connects Central Ohio’s planning community with the skills and insights needed to lead through change and shape the region’s future.
The Central Ohio region is experiencing rapid growth and change. As development accelerates, it is essential that both 
planning staff and elected officials
 are equipped with the tools and knowledge to guide their communities effectively. At the same time, as experienced Department Staff, Administrators, Planning Commission Members, and Board of Zoning Appeals Members leave their roles, new personnel are stepping in — often learning complex procedures, protocols, and best practices on the job.
To minimize the transitional challenges that come with this turnover, 
STEPZ
 offers a 
semi-annual workshop series
 that provides planning staff and officials at all experience levels with consistent, high-quality training to help them better serve their communities and make informed decisions.
At STEPZ, our goal is to build a stronger, more confident planning community across Central Ohio — one that’s ready to meet today’s challenges and shape the region’s future with knowledge, professionalism, and collaboration.
The second iteration of STEPZ Workshop will take place on 
Tuesday, May 20th
. This focused half-day session is designed specifically for planning staff to strengthen their understanding of zoning processes, development challenges, and strategic growth management.
If you’re a member of a planning department — whether serving a township, village, or a city — join us to deepen your expertise, sharpen your skills, and connect with planning professionals from across Central Ohio.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
Led by experts in the field, the workshop will offer a series of engaging discussions covering critical topics, including:
Best practices in 
site planning
Sustainability strategies
 for building resilient communities
Planning for 
EV charging infrastructure
Ethics and legalities
 to keep in mind while making planning decisions
Effective techniques for 
public engagement
Participants will gain practical insights and tools they can apply directly to their daily work, helping to ensure that planning processes are informed, defensible, and responsive to the evolving needs of Central Ohio communities.
