In 2018, Churchill, Monroeville, and Wilkins united to adopt an Implementable Comprehensive Plan.  

Churchill, Monroeville and Wilkins share an eastern location in Allegheny County; some major transportation and commercial arteries; typical Western Pennsylvania geography of ridges and valleys; a school district that includes Churchill and Wilkins; and their time of origin and period of significant growth.

These three communities have been popular bedroom communities with Monroeville and Wilkins also serving as a thriving commercial core for the east end of the county. They have much to offer.

They also have an imperative to welcome and guide change through community planning. The reason? They face many challenges such as declining population, aging population, a trend toward online retail shopping, a decline in suburban office parks and aging housing stock.

Churchill, Monroeville and Wilkins elected to pursue multi-municipal community planning, which means they worked together to create this long-term plan for how they want to change. The implementable comprehensive plan is a step-by-step guide to help the communities change in the ways they want to and need to.
