Crawford County Planning Commission

Roy Brant began as a citizen planning in 1978 with the Crawford County Planning Commission.  In 37 years he actively promoted planning in his home county and statewide.  At Crawford County, Roy used this skills as a political scientist (he taught political science at Edinboro University) to set up the committee structure that endures to this day and is the principal interface of the planning commission with the community.  Roy tirelessly promoted planning at municipal meetings, and promoted county interests at PennDOT regional meetings, DEP hearings, and the like.  He was instrumental in creating a county airport authority to take over the struggling Meadville airport.  Statewide, Roy sat on the APA-PA Board of Directors 1980-2014 and on the State Transportation Advisory Committee 2004-2015.
