SUMMARY:NJRA RTI Workshop: Municipal Incentives for Redevelopment - Tax Abatement (CM | 7.0)
DESCRIPTION:Tax abatements can be a powerful tool for municipalities to attract investments and redevelopment to their communities. This workshop will discuss the constitutional statues that authorize the granting of short and long-term tax exemptions and the procedural process for granting tax abatements for residential and commercial projects including establishing the PILOT payment. In addition\, the workshop will provide an opportunity to participate in the discussion on the pros and cons\, and the costs and benefits\, of tax abatements from different perspectives. HMFA and DEP tax abatement programs will also be discussed. \nProviding long-term tax exemption is an important municipal incentive to attract development but the key question is when municipalities’ should decide to use it. We will discuss the factors to consider when deciding whether or not to use tax abatements. The session will also discuss specific provisions in the municipal ordinances\, valuable terms in financial agreements\, and tactical strategies to avoid the potential public nightmare associated with granting tax abatements. An exercise will also be conducted to assess the potential economic and fiscal benefits of two projects. \nFor more info\, visit:  www.njra.us/rti

SUMMARY:Webinar: New Ideas for Bike-friendly Communities (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:Bicycling is continuing to grow as a viable option for both recreation\, as well as transportation.  While many communities have enjoyed growth in recreational bicycling\, there are many trends for bicycle facilities that improve the climate for the bicycle as transportation. This webcast will explore new ideas for planning\, designing and implementing bicycle facilities that planners can use right now in their communities.  Attendees will discover the qualities that define bicycle-friendly communities in Europe\, Canada and the United States.  Speakers will show examples of successful bike planning efforts and built bicycle facilities while discussing in detail the appropriateness of various solutions for a range of applications and plans.  The session will show how planning for bikes can be an integral part of a multi-modal transportation system.  Attendees will hear about two case studies\, one for a plan and implementation of a multi-use bike path in a downtown urban setting and another about how Indianapolis has created a city-wide bike network and achieved bronze level Bike-friendly Community recognition.  Attendees will learn how these communities worked with local stakeholders and planners to bring new ideas to successful implementation and take away new approaches that they can immediately use in their communities. \nThis webcast is sponsored by the Indiana Chapter. \nRegister Here:  https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/790070123

SUMMARY:Leading Community Building Emerging Planning Concepts For Diverse Communities (CM | 2.0)
DESCRIPTION:This session will be a forum in which experiences in building more unified and integrated communities are shared and participants are given an opportunity for questions\, comments and feedback. \nThis forum contains two sections – a presentation and a panel discussion – on the tools and strategies that are most promising to respond to the problem of communities being perhaps diverse but still not integrated. It has been documented through numerous national studies that even within diverse jurisdictions housing\, schools and civic realms remain largely separated by race\, ethnicity and/or socioeconomics. This reality is both inequitable and costly (and no longer just a burden on some groups – it harms us all). OPEN has worked for over 40 years developing practical local solutions and we’d like to share our approach to tackling this issue\, describe a theoretical model and present case studies of integrated successes. We especially want feedback from you on how to expand the toolkit and strategies. \nTakes place in Room 113. \nRSVP to ecdc.nj@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Webinar: Using GIS to Improve Planning Decisions\, part 1: Identifying Factors that Influence Rural Land Parcelization (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:GIS can be a valuable tool for providing information for planning decisions.  In this first of a two-part series\, we will look at the parcelization process in rural communities.  Parcelization\, or the division of land in smaller lots\, is highlighted as a critical step in the transformation of rural communities from places that rely on the landscapes perennial yield of raw natural resources to places that packages and sell the landscape itself for consumption and development. Understanding the relative influences of landscape factors on land division can assist decision makers in allocating land protection resources. This webcast is sponsored by the Wisconsin Chapter. \nRegister here:  https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/576635219

SUMMARY:Looking Back to See Forward: Viable Land Use Policies for the 'New Normal' (CM | 2.0)
DESCRIPTION:Join ULI-NNJ and economist Claude Gruen\, the author of New Urban Development: Looking Back to See Forward\, recently published by Rutgers University Press\, for a luncheon discussion of the unintended economic consequences of land use regulatory and zoning constraints on housing production. \nIn New Urban Development\, Mr. Gruen makes the connection between the artificial restrictions on housing supply\, imposed by local zoning ordinances since the 1970s\, and the resultant escalation of housing prices that eventually led to the mortgage crisis and financial meltdown of 2007. In New Urban Development\, he reviews what history and the new economic realities suggest about the changes needed to land use law and regulation at the federal\, state\, and most importantly\, local level\, and concludes with a comprehensive proposal of thirteen discrete new policies for the “New Normal.” These recommendations include planning and zoning for development above that likely to be required by demand growth\, mandating minimum densities in urban areas\, changes to affordable housing policy to take the burden of low- and moderate-income housing off of the backs of market-rate housing developers\, and the creation of a private alternative to public urban redevelopment. \nULI-NNJ invites you to think outside the box— the policy recommendations contained in New Urban Redevelopment may seem radical at first\, but\, in the words of President Obama’s former chief of staff\, “A crisis is too good an opportunity to miss.” Mr. Gruen’s presentation will be followed by a response panel of New Jersey’s top land use legal practitioners and planners. All attendees will receive a copy of New Urban Development. \nVisit: http://nnj.uli.org

SUMMARY:The Market-to-Affordable Housing Opportunity
DESCRIPTION:Affordable housing is getting increasingly difficult to plan for and build. The housing market at this time\, however unfortunate\, is full of market-rate units that aren’t worth what they used to be worth. Some towns in New Jersey have established Market-to-Affordable programs that allow the municipality to purchase underpriced units\, buy down the price even further\, and turn them into affordable housing rental or for sale units. This panel discussion will talk with a couple of the administrators of these programs about how they work\, and one tax assessor who must re-evaluate the price of the units for tax purposes. \nVisit: http://www.ahpnj.org/ahpn_centralregion_MTA041311.pdf

SUMMARY:New Urbanism and Communities of Color (CM | 2.0)
DESCRIPTION:New Urbanism has gained considerable acceptance in the last 20 years\, it remains controversial in a number of circles. Many critics believe that\, while the New Urbanism contains many attractive ideas\, it has not been able to effectively deal with a wide range of issues associated with inner-city communities and metropolitan growth that simply did not exist in the early twentieth century when it’s planning and design predecessors were being implemented. This workshop will address these concerns as well as carefully look into the principles of New Urbanism and its application in urban settings while taking a retrospective approach to developing a clearer understanding of urban settlement patterns in communities of color\, identifying typologies of traditional neighborhood design\, and explore place-determinants to help further develop a knowledge-base of meaningful precedents. This in turn\, can be applied to the development of future self-sustaining and livable communities. \nThe intent of this workshop will be to convey a thoughtful and selective awareness of New Urbanism principles and traditions with the effort to assist the contemporary community planner in deriving relevant strategies for the desired New Urbanism as it should more effectively respond to the social\, economic and physical needs of inner-city communities. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Webinar: Special Assessments Create Special Benefits: Avoiding an Unconstitutional Taking (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:In the summer of 2010\, the South Dakota Supreme Court unanimously upheld a circuit court appeal of a special assessment levied by the City of Pierre to replace curb and gutter. The Supreme Court decision confirming a “taking” had occurred ended a long process which began with a special assessment notice to the affected citizens in the December of 2007. The presentation will focus on balancing the special assessment fee with the “special benefits” that must be received by the assessees to avoid a “takings.” The presentation will also discuss community organizing\, preparation to become a witness\, and the AICP Code of Ethics. The presenter was a witness\, an assessee and petitioner in the case\, a community organizer\, and assisted in preparing the legal briefs. The presentation will discuss the material from an assessee’s or petitioner’s perspective.  This webcast is sponsored by the Western Central Chapter. \nRegister Here:  https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/606230747
