Joint Land Use Study

Military Installation Resiliency Study (MIR)
The goal of a Military Infrastructure Resiliency Study is to provide critical information and recommendations that enable communities to make informed decisions related to resiliency and to work in partnership with the Fort Riley Garrison Command to respond to, address, and mitigate activities that are either impairing or may impair the installation mission.
2021-2026 FHEDD Plan
The vision of the Flint Hills Economic Development District is to increase regional prosperity by being a globally competitive, business-friendly region comprised of healthy communities that sustain a high-quality of life.
Additional Services
We also provide community planning, grant, and technical assistance to our member jurisdictions. We understand and value the importance of working collaboratively, as we are stronger together and more effective. Industry markets, workforce, public health, access to healthcare and mental health services, emergency services and environmental issues do not stop at jurisdictional boundaries. These issues require cooperation and coordination between communities. The Flint Hills Regional Council exists to support the facilitation of collaborative efforts that bring mutual benefit to the region.
Our meetings are open to the public.
We welcome your support and service!
