4.04 The Century Plan (TCP) update and discussion  
PURPOSE & ACTION: CMAP is developing a new regional vision for northeastern Illinois - The Century  
Plan - and invites voices across government, civic spheres, business, and communities to prioritize  
what the region will need to thrive by midcentury. It will serve as our “north star” and define what we  
must do together, why it matters to the region, and provide policy guidance on how we get there. To  
support this engagement, CMAP has assembled a report that surfaces major trends that impact  
residents’ quality of life - including issues that affect the region's long-term economic growth. Staff will  
provide an overview he State of the Region report and facilitate a discussion on what the region must  
do together to thrive over the next 20 to 30 years.
