Member Services

PTRPC is dedicated to supporting a wide range of initiatives, including comprehensive planning and economic development. Our services encompass marketing data research, coordination with industrial prospects, and collaboration with various agencies and organizations involved in economic development. Our team assists in identifying funding opportunities and navigating the approval process for infrastructure projects, such as public water supply, sanitary sewage collection and treatment, and transportation planning. This includes local streets and roads, highways, airports, mass transit, and, in some cases, rail systems.

PTRPC is also engaged in park, recreational, and open space planning, as well as the development of ordinances, including subdivision regulations, zoning ordinances, and mobile home park regulations. Additionally, we coordinate programs for county and municipal members in collaboration with state and federal agencies, address health and healthcare facility needs, and support planning for compatible land use.

Furthermore, Pioneer Trails prepares grant applications for the implementation of capital improvements and the initiation of various programs.
