Unprecedented economic development is happening in Licking County. In addition to change that is already underway, in early 2022 Intel announced that it is prepared to initially invest $20 billion to build two leading-edge processor factories. FRAMEWORK includes 15 jurisdictions who are focused on understanding the impacts―and identifying the potential benefits―of anticipated investments from the public and private sectors, catalyzed by the investment from Intel.
FRAMEWORK is a planning initiative created to align communities on a desired future.
“So impressed with the work done to this point with Framework. Pulling all these jurisdictions together, having these cities, townships and villages giving input is crucial for the future of all involved, and not just Licking County. The amount of information that has been gathered is astronomical, not leaving one stone unturned was a huge task which Planning NEXT has handled admirably.” – Mayor Mike Compton, Pataskala
