Integrated Community Sustainability Planning demands that the community consider every environmental system.  In this sense, the ICSP is a collaboration on a desired vision based on a set of agreed upon sustainability principles. It is a bottom-up participatory process that engages those affected by decisions and those who will be responsible for implementing the Action Plan. Integrated Community Sustainability Planning brings planners, facilitators, councilors, administrators, engineers, architects, teachers, doctors, entrepreneurs, youth, seniors, and residents into the same room to talk about their common environment.

Morrison Hershfield’s environmental team conducted site visits to the Town of Hardisty to provide the range of services.  The team also met with the municipal team members to obtain their further input on sustainable planning matters and ideal planning criteria. 

As a consultant, we offer an integrated team of planners, facilitators, engineers, designers, and scientists to help communities prepare the ICSP and Action Plan. We offer a wide range and depth of expertise, all under one roof, that is difficult to match. Not only do we practice sustainability, but we are leaders in sustainable design, community planning, facilitation, research and analysis, and assessment.
