Community engagement in the Outer Banks LRTMP

Community input helps guide the Outer Banks Long-Range Tourism Management Plan and strengthens sustainable tourism growth.

Creating the Outer Banks Long-Range Tourism Management Plan (LRTMP) grew into a shared community effort, bringing in dozens of local leaders, hundreds of tourism-related stakeholders, and thousands of Dare County residents and non-resident property owners. Feedback from the community helped make the plan stronger, more relevant, and more sustainable. Ongoing involvement and open two-way communication with community stakeholders will remain important to the plan’s success. Future Outer Banks Visitors Bureau initiatives will continue to support community engagement.
