The Planning and Economic Development Committee plays a role in shaping the future of the Greater Hilltop by advising the Columbus Land Bank, evaluating built environment needs, and establishing avenues for citizens to actively engage in the planning process. Committed to strategic growth, the committee ensures responsible land use and fosters a resilient community through targeted recommendations, making the Greater Hilltop a model community for thoughtful urban development. Meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month at 6:00 P.M. at the Hilltop Branch of the Columbus Public Library (511 S Hague Ave).
