2026 Ceds Web Header(1)

South Central Minnesota is building a fiveyear regional plan through 2030. Over the next year, well gather ideas from across the region to build a shared picture of where were headed, where we want to go, and how well get there. Think of it as a community vision board, built with input from everyone who calls this place home: residents, workers, farmers, business owners, educators, and students. We’ll update this page throughout the year with new surveys, events, and draft materials.

How can you participate?

     • Take a survey (3–7 minutes each)
     • Join an event (forums, roundtables, and focus groups)
     • Invite us to your event — we’ll come to you!
