Joel Hensley, Principal Planner, will provide an overview of STLCO 2050 and discuss how the plan establishes a long-term vision for St. Louis County while guiding the development of a sustainable, equitable, and fiscally responsible community. From transportation and land use to housing, workforce access, and infrastructure investment, STLCO 2050 serves as a framework for thoughtful, coordinated growth across St. Louis County. A defining feature of STLCO 2050 is its foundation in community input. Shaped by resident feedback, the plan reflects the priorities of those who live and work throughout the county. Joel will share how this collective vision was developed and how public engagement helped inform strategies that guide future growth and investment.

To achieve these outcomes, STLCO 2050 also confronts several critical challenges impacting the county today, including:

• Population stagnation
• Rising infrastructure costs and long-term maintenance burdens
• A job-skills mismatch, including a missing “middle” of available jobs
• Housing diversity and affordability challenges
• Social and environmental resilience
