Central Arkansas Planning and Development District

Central Arkansas Planning and Development District Providing programs designed to generate community and economic growth!

The Central Arkansas Planning and Development District, established in 1968, is a non-profit, multi-county, multi-purpose, and multi-funded Planning and Development Organization serving Lonoke, Prairie, Monroe, Faulkner, Pulaski and Saline Counties. The District is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of each respective County Judge, the Mayor from the largest city, and a representative of t

he business and minority community from each of the designated counties. Every incorporated municipality within the designated counties are members of the Central Arkansas Planning and Development District. Congress first established the Planning and Development District concept in 1965 by Public Law 89-136, known as the Public Works and Economic Development Act. The Development District Program, as a major instrument of the Economic Development Administration, is designed to foster economic growth through multi-county planning and investment. The Planning and Development Districts in Arkansas, because of the control and accountability maintained through the local governing body, are being used as a service delivery system by both the federal and state government. This is indicated at the federal level through various forms of legislation, that mandate implementation on a regional basis, such as the Workforce Investment Act of 1998.
