Planning is not often seen for what it is – a community’s choice to actively invest in and guide its future. ​

Good planning helps to create communities that offer choices for where and how people live. Good planning should help communities to thoughtfully envision their future. It should identify and resolve issues, capitalize on opportunities, and leverage assets.  It should be based on community values and the fundamental planning and design principles that have withstood the test of time:
  • Create pedestrian-oriented public spaces;
  • Create accessible recreational opportunities;
  • Promote transportation options;
  • Practice environmental stewardship;
  • Develop cities and villages that meet multiple needs; and
  • Utilize design characteristics that are indigenous.​​
Some call this sustainability. We call it good planning!

​We understand the difficulties many communities face today —tighter resources, budget cuts, pressure to do more with less —it takes a combination of creative thinking and careful analysis to overcome those obstacles. 
“I had the privilege of working with Ingalls Planning & Design on our Comprehensive Plan.  Ingalls Planning & Design led the citizen engagement process and did a wonderful job of obtaining input from our residents and community stakeholders.  They also connected well with our Local Planning Committee.  I would highly recommend Ingalls Planning & Design to anyone looking for planning services.”
