Welcome to the Indiana County
Office of Planning and Development

In 1987 the Indiana County Board of Commissioners established the Indiana County Office of Planning and Development (ICOPD). Since its establishment, the ICOPD’s role in County government has continuously evolved to meet the ever changing needs of the County.

The Office of Planning and Development continues to take a pro-active approach to addressing county-wide concerns and issues. Our cooperation with the 14 boroughs and 24 townships throughout the County contributes to the balance between existing land uses and growth considerations so that the quality of life in Indiana County can be improved for future generations.

The overall purpose of the Office of Planning and Development is to facilitate orderly growth and development that contributes to the public’s health, safety, and welfare.
