SUMMARY:Community FoodBank Tour
DESCRIPTION:Managing a Supply Chain on a Shoestring Budget \nThe Community FoodBank of New Jersey’s 280\,000 square foot facility in Hillside\, NJ distributes 3 million pounds of food a month. Using their fleet of 19 trucks\, the FoodBank picks up from major supporters\, including Shoprite\, as well as organized food drives and federal programs. Community Foodbank also purchases product to meet food needs. \nDuring our tour\, we will see how an organization deals with great variability in product intake and shipping\, has developed cost effective approaches to adding refrigerated storage (which can be replicated in other settings)\, integrates the use of volunteers into the distribution process\, and uses environmentally sustainable processes – all on a shoestring budget. \nCost: $30 member and non-members \nLearn more and Register by visiting: \nhttps://cscmp.org/wp/Events/ViewRTEvent.asp?EventID=18397 \n

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:2011 Complete Streets Workshop (Sussex\, Warren\, Morris Counties) (CM | 2.5)
DESCRIPTION:A Complete Streets Workshop\, focused on providing municipal and county officials with information on planning for Complete Streets in both suburban and rural areas.  \nThe event is being sponsored by the County of Sussex\, and in cooperation with Morris and Warren Counties\, the NJDOT and the Sussex County YMCA.  \nThe Complete Streets Workshop will feature presenters from NJDOT\, from Michael Baker Jr.\, The RBA Group\, and will also include two transportation attorneys who will address liability concerns with respect to Counties and municipalities.  \nThe workshop will also include case studies from a County and municipal perspective demonstrating that there is no singular design prescription for Complete Streets; each one is unique and responds to its community context.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Planning for an Aging Society: Technologies for Safe Transportation Mobility (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:An overwhelming majority of older Americans wants to age in place despite speculations for a strong future demand for denser\, more walkable residential environments and grey flight\, residential movement of older households from suburbs to urban areas\, which is postulated based on life course theory. This webcast will present transportation mobility and traffic safety issues we face in an aging society given the residential patterns of older adults. Then existing and new technologies that potentially enhance the mobility and safety of older adults will be presented and discussed along with planning and policy options that can facilitate the implementation of such technologies. \nRegister Here:  https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/999541563

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

SUMMARY:Webinar: A Framework for Assessing Aging in Place Technologies (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:According to a recent AARP survey\, “eighty-nine percent of Americans want to stay as long as possible in their current houses … [and] … the prospect of going to a nursing home is a constant fear.” However\, the current built environment does not support the growing number of increasingly fragile individuals either in their homes\, or in the community. Planners and policy makers must advance infrastructure supporting aging in place within a comprehensive and inclusive planning strategy. This session briefly reviews aging research and presents a matrix of individual\, cultural\, health\, economic\, legal\, infrastructure\, and environmental systems within which to consider aging in place technologies. \nRegister Online: https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/773696730

DESCRIPTION:2011 marks the start of the baby boomers entering retirement and increasing the 65+ population to a projected 70.3 million by 2030.  The aging of America is an extraordinary opportunity to critically examine the built environment from the perspective of older people with the goal of creating communities that one can spend their lifetime or age-in-place.  This webinar presented by the Private Practice Division will explore ways in which we can transform the built environment in our communities to meet the needs of an aging society and to make our communities more aging-friendly.  Topics covered include:  the findings from a survey of local aging-friendly policies and programs in the San Francisco Bay Area\, strategies and best practices for planners such as the development of Naturally Occurring Retirement Communities (NORCs) and complete streets. \nRegister Online:  https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/306696906

SUMMARY:BOCEP: Introduction to Environmental Planning (CM | 14.0)
DESCRIPTION:2/23-4/2  14 CM Credits \nUsing land use planning measures to respond to advance sustainability and resilience of both the natural and built environment requires at least a basic understanding of the environment and of ecological principles. The American Planning Association has recently established a Certified Environmental Planner credential in recognition of the expertise required in these areas. This will be a seminar style course encouraging interaction and shared knowledge among participants in identifying planning measures that are appropriate to address the relationships between and among land uses and ecological systems. The course will begin with an introduction to how the environment works and how to find and use environmental data. Participants will choose an issue regarding air\, water\, land or other environmental impacts and examine how planning solutions mitigate or merely shift these impacts. We will conclude with examinations of policies on sustainability\, climate change and other topics of interest to course members. We will interact using discussion boards\, webinars and online chats scheduled at mutual convenience.  \nhttp://policy.rutgers.edu/pdi/bocep/courses

SUMMARY:Webinar: Planning for an Aging Population (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:With the Baby Boomer Generation retiring and a large segment of the population entering old age\, planners have a new set of demands for planning communities and developments that address these changing demographics.     This session features two prominent urban planners who have extensive practical and research experience in planning for and housing the elderly population.   Mr. Gourguechon will address what it means to grow old\, the issues of stereotyping and ageism\, finding purpose and meaning in life as we age\, and the special needs of the elderly for housing\, living arrangements\, public safety\, education\, and mobility.  Pertinent demographic\, economic\, and health care statistics and studies will be discussed and initiatives that planners can pursue to alleviate the concerns of functional limitations and quality of life will be identified.   Professor Heumann will focus on the role of urban planning in providing sufficient care for senior adults and implications for service demographics\, standards of living\, and care providers.   He will discuss a range of specialized neighborhood and housing models that have been developed to accommodate the senior population\, including Community Development Corporations\, different forms of Home Help\, and the Neighborhood Warden model which can help to monitor and care for seniors in the community.   Both speakers will address the important role that planners have to play in this significant societal change.  \nThis webcast is sponsored by the Women in Planning Division of APA. \nRegister Online:  https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/861456690

SUMMARY:Webinar:  Impacts and Opportunities of an Aging Population (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:The “Impacts and Opportunities of an Aging Population” webinar will explore the new world that is being created by the seismic demographic shift that begins on January 1\, 2011 when the first of the Baby Boomer generation celebrates their 65th birthday. Over the next 20 years (2030) the older adult population will double to 71 million and\, by 2050\, the population of our seniors will be equal to that of our youth (109\,090\,000 vs 109\,147\,000).  The sheer number of people growing older will create more demand for walkable neighborhoods and mixed used developments that place businesses and services used by an older population in close proximity to residential neighborhoods.  Communities that have also incorporated universal design standards into their overall planning and building codes will also be in a better position to enable their residents to “age in place” in naturally occurring retirement communities – thereby reducing the demand for high-cost institutional care.  The impact and opportunities of an aging population goes beyond traditional city planning and extends into public policy and strategic planning.  An increasingly frail population can impact the usage of traditional government services such as 9-1-1 emergency services\, can increase local prison costs and can increase the Medicaid match that local governments are responsible.  Although there are significant challenges that communities face with an increasingly older population base\, there are tremendous opportunities a retirement population brings including a strong core of volunteers\, a population that discretionary income and a population with a desire to contribute.  \nThis webcast is sponsored by the Florida Chapter. \nRegister Online:  https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/610107874

SUMMARY:Webinar: Healthy\, Active and Vibrant Communities (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:In the last two decades\, communities across the nation have come to value bicycle and pedestrian facilities – sidewalks\, bike lanes\, shared use paths – as significant community assets. Bicycle and pedestrian facilities provide direct benefits to residents and employees\, connecting people to local destinations and increasing access to recreational opportunities. These facilities also provide indirect benefits\, such as strengthening sense of community\, increasing social interaction\, improving public health\, improving safety\, reducing congestion and pollution\, and promoting social equity. Creating a bikeable and walkable environment doesn’t happen overnight. It takes vision\, timing\, collaboration\, determination\, and community support.  \nThis webcast is sponsored by the Missouri Chapter. \nRegister Online:  https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/514339851
