The Future of the Region edition of Visions is published in June and highlights the winners of the annual Future of the Region Awards program which takes place in March. The Annual Report edition of Visions magazine is published in December and highlights the year in review for the Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council.

Both editions of the magazine include feature articles on timely issues in regional planning as well as three departments which include: Regionally Speaking, Regional Round-up and Council Capsules.
