Boonslick Regional Planning Commission

What Boonslick Regional Planning Commission does

Boonslick Regional Planning Commission (BRPC) is a state-chartered regional planning commission established on May 27, 1968 by Governor Warren E. Hearnes under Chapter 251 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri. Headquartered at 111 Steinhagen Road in Warrenton, Missouri, BRPC is one of 19 regional planning commissions covering the state's 114 counties and serves as a shared-service body for 30 local governments — three counties (Lincoln, Montgomery, Warren) and 27 municipalities — across 1,645 square miles.

BRPC delivers a portfolio of professional planning, technical assistance, and program administration services spanning community and economic development, workforce development, transportation planning, GIS/mapping, solid-waste management, and homeland security coordination. It administers the East Central Missouri Solid Waste Management District (Region I) and operates the East Central Missouri Recycling Center, which serves four counties. Since 2006 it has held designation as lead Regional Planning Commission for the Region C Homeland Security Oversight Committee, coordinating emergency preparedness across seven Missouri counties and 15 disciplines. Core technology use centers on GIS-based mapping integrating GPS-collected field data with Census and other public datasets for geo-spatial analysis.

BRPC is funded through a hybrid model: voluntary population-based membership fees from its 30 member jurisdictions, an annual grant from the State of Missouri, and fees retained from administering state and federal programs. It has cumulatively assisted over $260 million in grant-funded regional projects since 1968. Current leadership comprises Executive Director Teresa Lee (since 2022) and Chairman Ryan Poston (since 2020); the organization has roughly 8-10 listed staff plus rotational board representation from member communities.
