Our Mission
The National Capital Planning Commission works with federal agencies as it seeks to preserve and enhance the extraordinary historical, cultural, and natural resources and federal assets of the National Capital Region to support the needs of the federal government and enrich the lives of the region's visitors, workers, and residents.
Strategic Plan
NCPC prepares a Strategic Plan that sets the goals that chart the agency's course over the next four years and the strategies used to gauge successes.
Strategic Plan
Core Activities
NCPC's work includes:

NCPC also coordinates the planning efforts of federal agencies that construct and renovate facilities within the National Capital Region; represents the federal government on a number of local and regional planning boards; and encourages public participation in all aspects of the agency's work.
Commission and Staff
The 12-member Commission meets monthly (except August) to adopt, approve, or provide advice on plans and projects that impact the National Capital Region. The Commission is supported by a staff of planners, architects, urban designers, landscape architects, and other professionals.
