Councils of governments (CoGs—also known as regional councils, regional commissions, regional planning commissions, and planning districts) are regional governing and/or coordinating bodies that exist throughout the United States. CoGs are normally controlled by their member local governments,[1] though some states have passed laws granting CoGs region-wide powers over specific functions,[2] and still other states mandate such councils.[3]
