About MARC

The Mid-America Regional Council, commonly referred to as MARC, serves as the association of city and county governments and the metropolitan planning organization for the bistate Kansas City region.

MARC seeks to build a stronger regional community through cooperation, leadership and planning. Through MARC’s leadership, area jurisdictions and diverse community interests sit down together to address the region’s problems and identify the opportunities for cooperative solutions. These efforts, in turn, enhance the effectiveness of local government.

As a voluntary association, MARC strives to foster better understanding and cooperation on issues that extend beyond the jurisdiction of a single city, county or state. These issues include transportation, child care, aging, emergency services, public safety and 9-1-1, environmental issues and a host of others.

MARC’s Board of Directors consists of 33 locally elected leaders representing the nine counties and 120 cities in the bistate metropolitan Kansas City region.

MARC plays an active leadership role in strengthening the metropolitan community by providing:

• A forum for addressing regional objectives and diverse community issues;
• Long-range planning and public policy coordination;
• and technical assistance and services to enhance the effectiveness of local government.

For more information about MARC, please call us at 816/474-4240 or stop by our offices located at 600 Broadway, Suite 200, in downtown Kansas City, Missouri.
