Hello, planning friends. I hope you are all having a great summer.

I have three exciting Central Massachusetts Regional Planning Commission (CMRPC) opportunities to share:

The successful applicant will be able to lead complex planning processes with minimal supervision and possess working knowledge of land use and zoning principles.

The successful applicant will aid partner communities with community development planning and needs assessments, project eligibility discussions, project selection recommendations, public outreach, field surveys, grant applications, as well as aspects of budgeting, grant administration and grant compliance. The community development project planner will coordinate grant-funded projects generally implemented by consultants/contractors that typically include plans (ADA, infrastructure, and environmental), architectural and engineering designs, building and public works construction, and occasionally oversight of housing rehabilitation and/or social service partnerships. Additional roles from time to time may include support for portions of community master plans, hazard mitigation/climate resilience plans, development of shared municipal services, or other grant seeking.
