Consortium Partners
The Consortium Partners were the 11 organizations that committed to the grant through a legally binding agreement with HUD. HUD required that the traditional principal city (City of St. Louis), the county with the largest population (St. Louis County), the Metropolitan Planning Organization (East-West Gateway) and a regional public engagement organization (FOCUS St. Louis) be included in the planning process. The remaining Consortium Partners were selected based on their willingness and capacity to contribute to OneSTL. Each of the Consortium Partners was represented on the Steering Committee and was actively engaged in building a regional plan for St. Louis.
The Applied Research Collaborative provides a “one-stop-shop” that consolidates data from a variety of sources. In so doing, ARC promises to make a variety of community improvement efforts more informed, better planned, and easier to implement.
The Applied Research Collaborative is a partnership between three of the region’s leading research institutions:
The City of St. Louis harnesses the strength and spirit of its diverse community to create an economically, socially and ecologically vibrant City for present and future generations -- one that dynamically serves those who live, work, and play in the City's rich and celebrated historic landscape.
The fundamental purpose of the Great Rivers Greenway District is to make the St. Louis region a better place to live, by creating a clean, green and connected region. Through this work, Great Rivers Greenway strives to build a vibrant legacy for future generations.
Metro Transit is best known as the operator of the public transportation system for the St. Louis metropolitan region, with MetroLink, MetroBus and Metro Call-A-Ride. But did you know that Metro Transit also oversees operations of the St. Louis Downtown Airport, the Gateway Arch trams and the Gateway Arch Riverboats.
The St. Louis County Department of Planning consists of three divisions:
- Current Planning
- Comprehensive Planning
- Community Development
The Department provides both countywide services as well as municipal-type services to the unincorporated areas of St. Louis County. The three divisions work in conjunction with each other, as well as independently, to meet the changing demands and needs of St. Louis County.
St. Louis County has developed ten priority goals to guide the implementation of our sustainability agenda. Reaching these goals will require substantial commitment, but will yield a common sustainable future for our citizens and communities. This is an opportunity to position ourselves as leaders in the new green economy and to advance a more prosperous future with an even higher quality of life.
