Local Technical Assistance

PlanRVA works closely with each of the member jurisdictions' elected leaders, appointed boards, and staff to support local planning and project implementation.  

 

The functions within PlanRVA’s core services on behalf of our localities may include: 

  • Convene partners on common interest issues 
  • Research and sharing best practices or solutions 
  • Help to seek funds for specific projects or programs 
  • Grant administration and management services 
  • Data research and analysis 
  • Marketing and communications support 
  • Other general planning assistance required to prepare studies, reports, or plans 

 

Local planning assistance is carried out across all of PlanRVA’s program areas. These services may be provided directly by PlanRVA staff or through the PlanRVA bench of consultants for marketing/communications or planning/engineering professional and non-professional services.
