Community Guide to the Consolidated Plan

Turn your Consolidated Plan into a clear, visual guide residents can actually use.

You already created the plan. Brevi Studio turns it into a polished, plain-language guide that helps residents, staff, partners, and elected officials understand the needs, funding, priorities, and next steps.

Community Guide Consolidated Plan Your City

The challenge

Don't let a five-year plan live only as a dense PDF.

Cities invest months of work into Consolidated Plans, but the final documents are often long, technical, and difficult for residents to navigate. A community guide gives staff a clearer way to explain what the plan means and gives residents a more accessible way to understand what comes next.

The plan is important

It captures needs, priorities, funding choices, and the public process behind them.

The PDF is hard to use

Long technical documents can make it difficult for residents to find the story.

Residents need the story

A guide helps people understand what the plan means for their community.

The product

A resident-facing guide built from your city's own plan.

The Community Guide translates the Consolidated Plan into a visual booklet and PDF that can be shared at meetings, posted online, and used by staff when explaining the plan.

  • Plain-language explanations
  • Local data and funding visuals
  • Priority needs and goals
  • Year-one funding overview when available
  • How residents can stay involved
