Based in Omaha, Nebraska, it serves as a forum for member governments to address regional issues that cross jurisdictional boundaries. Its work centers on multimodal transportation planning and collaborative community planning, bringing together local officials to address mutual and overlapping concerns in transportation, solid and hazardous waste, community and economic growth and development, air quality, energy and data, with the aim of safeguarding public health, safety and welfare across the MAPA region. MAPA serves local governments and public agencies within the Omaha-Council Bluffs metropolitan area, supporting planning and policy efforts that span multiple jurisdictions. The organization partners with cities and public entities to advance studies and initiatives, as shown by collaborations with the City of Valley in 2023 and other regional projects.
