ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS
1. What is FRAMEWORK? FRAMEWORK is a collaborative initiative that
includes 15 jurisdictions who will focus on understanding the impacts
and potential benefits of the anticipated investments from Intel and from
the public and private sectors. The objective is to work with the Licking
County communities who will be most immediately impacted to establish a
development plan and strategic approach to managing growth to ensure our
communities remain healthy and are successfully positioned for the future.
2. Why is this being done? The announcement in early 2022 that Intel plans
to construct two new leading-edge processor factories in Licking County will
fuel unprecedented development. Documenting a vision of what Licking
County wants to look like is important. If we do not, outside developers
and other organizations will direct our growth and that will likely not be
in alignment with our County’s goals and values. FRAMEWORK will include
insight and a “toolbox” that can be used by local jurisdictions for specific
implementation priorities.
3. What are the benefits of FRAMEWORK? The benefits of implementing
the recommendations include unprecedented local government alignment
on development policies and projects. This alignment has the potential
to receive greater external funding than possible through individual
pursuits. With respect to future investors, they will have a clear idea of local
expectations and will be able to operate in a predictable environment.
4. Will the community be able to participate? Yes. FRAMEWORK is an
open and inclusive process. There will be public input opportunities held
throughout the process, including in-person and virtual opportunities.
Anybody who cares about the future of Licking County will be able to
participate and contribute their ideas and insight.
5. How long will this process take? It is anticipated the process will take eight
to twelve months. Completion would be in Spring/Summer 2023.
6. Who is involved? The Thomas J. Evans Foundation is serving as a neutral
convener for FRAMEWORK, a public/private partnership, and is providing
leadership and staff support to the project. The Leadership Team includes
an elected representative from each participating jurisdiction plus
leadership from the private sector partners.
7. How will FRAMEWORK be funded? FRAMEWORK will be funded with a
public/private partnership. The private sector has come forward with
65% of the funding with the 15 jurisdictions participating providing the
remaining 35%.
