Message From The President

I’m honored to serve as president of the California County Planning Commissioners’ Association and excited for the year ahead. CCPCA has always been a place where commissioners, planners, and staff learn from one another and strengthen the work we do in our communities, and I’m looking forward to building on that tradition.

I want to extend my sincere gratitude to Jerry Morrow for his dedicated service as president and his ongoing role with the organization. His leadership and steady guidance have positioned us well for the future. We’re already preparing for our 2026 conference in the fall (details soon!), and I’m eager to bring everyone together for meaningful conversations, shared learning, and renewed connection.

Thank you for the work you do every day across California. I’m proud to serve alongside you.

Richard Way
President, CCPCA
