MORPC's Mission: To enhance the quality of life and competitive advantages of the central Ohio region by working through local governments and other constituents.

The Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) is the place where visions and ideas about our growing region are created, designed, discussed, and embraced. We are a voluntary association of local governments serving central Ohio. A catalyst for regional change, evidence of our work is seen everyday through planning, programming and public policy in the areas of economic development, energy, environment, housing, transportation and land use.
