Welcome to APA Ohio
Our chapter of over 1,500 members is the oldest association of citizen and professional planners in the country. Our history goes back to 1919 with the establishment of the Ohio Planning Conference, a group of interested planning officials who understood the value of planning in our communities. Since that time, the association and its members have changed and evolved but our mission has remained the same -- to promote good planning for the betterment of all Ohioans.

2019 APA Ohio Statewide Planning Conference
In October 1919, a group of future-oriented civic-minded Clevelanders organized the first Ohio State Conference on City Planning. The Ohio Planning Conference, later merging with the American Planning Association, was the first organization of its kind and remains the oldest association of citizen and professional planners in the country. Our 1,500 members share passion and understanding of the value of planning in our communities. We are champions of the built environment and stewards of place.
Over the past one hundred years, the association and its members have changed and evolved but our mission remains the same – to promote good planning for the betterment of all Ohioans.
Join APA Ohio October 2-4 in Cleveland to reflect on the past and prepare for the future.
Sponsorship opportunities and the call for sessions will be announced on March 1.
