About Us

Mission Statement:

We exist for our cities, counties and customers.

The Southwest Iowa Planning Council was formed in 1975.  Our goal is to promote regional cooperation as well as to serve the counties and cities within our region with community and economic development activities to improve the quality of life for all residents of Southwest Iowa.

We are governed by a 17 member Policy Council, which includes one supervisor from each county board, six citizens who are appointed by the county boards and three that are selected by the Council.  These members represent business, education, human services, economic development, etc.

The Policy Council is designed to provide a strong communication link between SWIPCO and the residents of Southwest Iowa.  This channel of communication and the support of our member governments keeps SWIPCO aware and responsive to its members’ needs and concerns.
