Wisconsin has nine Regional Planning Commissions (RPCs) that provide planning assistance on regional transportation planning issues, assist local interests in responding to state and federal programs, act as a coordinating agency for programs and activities, and provide planning and development assistance to local governments. Specific examples of RPC services include: comprehensive community plans, zoning and subdivision ordinances, grant writing, geographic information system map production, revolving loan fund administration, economic development planning, socio-economic data collection and dissemination, and public policy advocacy on issues affecting a region.
