A message from the City Planning Commission

January 11, 20201

Dear RCO members,

Happy New Year! The new year is seen as a fresh start and that is true here at the City Planning Commission. We have made some internal staff changes and want to keep you updated. In order to be more effective and to better serve you and the general public, we have assigned a staff person per District. District planners (formerly community planners) will continue to provide support, advice and help to you for any zoning or development need.

Attached please find an updated map of district planners with their contact information. If you’d like to see the district boundaries on an interactive map, check out our mapping site here. New district planners are being trained in all aspects of community planning and they are working to get to know the neighborhoods. In the coming weeks, they may reach out to introduce themselves. If you have any concerns or questions, please contact the district planner assigned to your area.

Thank you for your support and patience as our planners grow into their new roles.

Eleanor Sharpe

Executive Director

Philadelphia City Planning Commission
