SUMMARY:2011 SCAPA Summer Conference
DESCRIPTION:Shaw Afb And The Sumter Community: A Coordinated Comprehensive Planning Approach \nSCAPA’s mid-year conference will give attendees an opportunity to visit a vital Department of Defense asset in the State for a chance to learn more about its contributions to overall planning efforts. Many practicing community\, city and regional\, planners lack a full understanding about military installation planning and the staff charged with directing planning activities of the military installations located in South Carolina. Trained planners are a key resource for the survival and future economic impact that a military base brings to a local community. The day –long session focuses on the Military Planning Community and the contributions made to the State of South Carolina by these facilities. For more information go to SCAPA.org or contact Pat Collins at jpcol44@bellsouth.net.

SUMMARY:Planner's Network Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:An official “organizing meeting” will be held on Thursday\, June 16th at 6:30 P.M. at the Central Library of the Atlanta-Fulton County Library System in the 2nd Floor Meeting Room. During this meeting\, we will be going in to greater detail about: \n\nWhat a Planner’s Network Chapter can be expected to do within a community\nSome of the opportunities for action within Atlanta (specifically in regards to the proposed construction of a new Atlanta Falcon’s stadium)\, and\nThe general structure of the type of Chapter that we would like to set up.\n\nIf some of you are still a little unsure about the benefits of membership within a Planner’s Network Chapter\, below is a copy of the excellent e-mail that Moki Macias sent last month. \n“Why a Planner’s Network chapter for Atlanta? \nA group of graduate students in the Georgia Tech School of City Planning have been engaged in social justice planning issuesfor the last several years — but we realize that to become a powerful voice for progressive planning in Atlanta we must join together with a much broader network of residents\, practitioners\, and advocates who are engaged in this work\, as well as connect to others who are pushing forward these critical conversations across the country. \nWe know that Atlanta\, as many of you have in fact taught us\, has a long history of struggle–with both major injustices and hard-fought victories–around issues of equitable development\, affordable housing\, quality public services and infrastructure\, and public participation in the decisions that shape our neighborhoods\, public spaces\, and city as a whole. There are many informal and formal networks that have carried this work forward. The Planner’s Network is another opportunity to knit together a wide range of people — neighborhood leaders\, Grady nurses\, city planners\, MARTA riders\, students\, housing advocates — that can share information\, collaborate on activities\, and frame issues through a progressive planning lens. \nThere are numerous issues right now that could benefit from the energies of such a network\, such as the proposed new Falcons Stadium\, which is going forward with remarkably little transparency or public engagement (particularly shocking after the experiences of Peoplestown and Lightening residents with the last two stadiums that were built in Atlanta!). We’ve attached a flyer about the upcoming Community Townhall on this issue – hope you can come out on the 29th! \nBenefits of Membership \n\nA platform for collective agendas\, calls to action\, and events related to racial\, economic\, environmental and social justice in Atlanta\nAccess to a network and listerve of local folks interested in progressive planning issues\nAccess to the national Planner’s Network listserve\, events\, conferences\, and publications\nOpportunities for leadership & skill-building”

SUMMARY:Real Estate Finance from Simple to Complex (CM Approved)
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will parse the fundamental components of real estate finance so that participants will better understand the financial pro formas that real estate developers present to planners and economic developers when seeking public approvals for projects.  Three finance exercises involving realistic real estate developments will then be conducted.  The first will demonstrate a simple project involving equity and debt but that does not involve public participation.  The second will be a project that requires a public-private partnership and the consequent effects on the finances of both parties.  The third will get a little more complicated as an urban redevelopment project involving not only a public-private partnership but also tax credits and tax increment financing\, demonstrating the impacts on the financial pro forma and the economic value of the investment to the developer and\, separately\, to the public entity. \nThis webcast is sponsored by the Economic Development Division. \nREGISTER ONLINE

SUMMARY:Georgia Conservancy’s “Drinks and Discussion”
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER \nOur city streets are not just a means of driving from one place to another. They’re among our most vital public spaces that should foster walking\, biking and a sense of community. \nOur often overlooked city streets will be the focus of the Georgia Conservancy’s next “Drinks and Discussion” on May 26 at the Conservancy’s offices in Midtown Atlanta. \nTo spark the conversation\, Rebecca Serna from the Atlanta Bicycle Coalition will talk about the Atlanta Streets Alive program and the street festivals they have planned this summer. \nIn addition\, a representative from the city of Atlanta will be on hand to discuss the streetcar line that will soon be built in downtown Atlanta. \n“The goal of the night is to spread the word about alternative modes of transit and smart street design\,” says Georgia Conservancy urban designer\, Deanna Murphy. “For the health of our planet and community\, streets shouldn’t just be for automobiles.” \nWe’ve got the drinks. You bring the discussion.

SUMMARY:Complete Streets (CM | TBD)
DESCRIPTION:.Mobility is for Everyone! \nREGISTER ONLINE or for more information call 770-813-3370 \nThe streets of our cities and towns are an important part of our communities. They allow children to get to school and parents to get to work They bring together neighbor sand parents to get to work. They bring together neighbors and draw visitors to neighborhood stores. These streets ought to be designed for everyone whether young or old\, on foot or on bicycle\, in a car or in a bus –but too often they are designed only for speeding cars or creeping traffic jams. \nNow\, in communities across the country\, a movement is growing to “complete” the streets. States\, cities\, and towns are asking their planners and engineers to build roads that are safer\, more accessible\, and easier for everyone. In the process\, they are creating better communities for people to live\, play\, work\, and shop. \nTraining provided by:Brad StraderPresident and Managing PartnerITE certified Professional Transportation Planner Chair\, ITE Transportation Planning Council \nCourse Cost: \n\n$45 Government and Council Member\n$65     Non-Member\n\nYou will learn: \n\nWhat are “Complete Streets”\nWhat do “Complete Streets” policies do\nThe many types of “Complete Streets”

SUMMARY:Form-based Zoning (CM | TBD)
DESCRIPTION:Why Your City Planning is Pushing This! \nREGISTER ONLINE or for more information call 770-813-3370 \nForm-based codes foster predictable built results and a high-quality public realm by using physical form and design (rather than separation of uses) as the organizing principle for the code. Form-based codes offer a powerful alternative to conventional zoning\, allowing communities to consider more than land use and density. \nThis half-day course is an interactive course\, answering the following questions by using examples from around the country as well as visiting a local site. The course will provide a basic understanding of form-based codes: \n\nhow they are different\nhow they can be applied\nhow they can help implement more sustainable communities\n\nCourse Cost: \n\n$45     Government and Council Member\n$65     Non-Member

SUMMARY:Rethinking Planning: Is There a Better Way
DESCRIPTION:Denver planner and this year’s Serenbe Institute Visiting Fellow\, Jeff Winston\, will present a lecture\, “Rethinking Planning:  Is There a Better Way\,” at 4:00 PM Saturday\, May 7 at the Serenbe Institute Studio.  It will be immediately followed by a reception at Brigitte and Shelton Stanfill’s house.  There is no charge and everyone is invited. \nIn more than 25 years of professional practice\, Winston Associates has completed more than 35 comprehensive plans—for towns\, cities and regions.  The time is right to take a fresh look at the current state of planning—how well it really works\, how it’s perceived by the general public\, and how can it be made more transparent\, understandable\, less expensive and actually used in day to day decision-making by communities. The question posed is: does this require modest adjustments to what we do today\, or do we need to reexamine our approach from top to bottom?
