SUMMARY:Building Inclusion into the Millennial City
DESCRIPTION:Building Inclusion into the Millennial City\nby Rolf Pendall \nDirector\, Metropolitan Housing and Communities Policy Center\, Urban Institute \nTuesday\, March 8\, 4:30 p.m.Gov. James J. Florio Special Events Forum\,Civic Square Building33 Livingston Avenue\, New Brunswick\, NJDirections \nThe U.S. city was built for the baby boom. Its bones were formed when the U.S. was in its final decades of legal apartheid and fleshed out over four decades of rising inequality. The baby boom is still here and will continue to shape cities\, suburbs\, and rural areas. But we now need to accommodate a new generation— the millennials—whose coming of age will require millions of new rental housing units. Where will this housing be built? How will established housing and communities adapt to meet their needs while also allowing Baby Boomers to live comfortably well into old age? How do the answers to these questions differ depending on where we look? In this lecture we will look at recent trends\, chart out national future prospects\, suggest alternative scenarios for local areas with a special focus on the Boston to Washington corridor\, and identify policies\,  practices\, and incentives that could make millennial cities more inclusive in 50 years than baby boomer cities are today. \nRolf Pendall is Director of the Metropolitan Housing and Communities Policy Center at the Urban Institute.  In this role\, he leads a team of over 40 experts on a broad array of housing\, community development\, and economic development topics\, consistent with Urban Institute’s nonpartisan\, evidence-based approach to economic and social policy. Pendall’s research expertise includes metropolitan growth trends; land-use planning and regulation; demographic change; federal\, state\, and local  affordable housing policy and programs; and racial residential segregation and the concentration of poverty.   \n1.5 AICP certification maintenance credits.\nLecture and reception free and open to the public. RSVP requested by visiting http://bit.ly/catlin-2016 \nThe Robert A. Catlin Memorial Lecture honors the legacy of Robert A. Catlin\, Bloustein School professor\, who died in July 2004. Catlin began his career as a staff planner for governmental agencies and community organizations in several cities\, including Los Angeles\, Washington\, D.C.\, and New York. He also served as dean of the College of Social Science at Florida Atlantic University\, dean of the Camden College of Arts and Sciences at Rutgers\, and provost and vice president for academic affairs at California State University\, Bakersfield. He was inducted as an AICP Fellow in 2001. At the Bloustein School\, he specialized in urban revitalization and the impact of race in public policy decision-making. \n  \n

SUMMARY:(Webinar) The Central Social District - the Key to Tomorrow's Successful Downtowns
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW\nFor decades\, the terms Central Business District\, CBD and downtown were used almost interchangeably because\, functionally\, downtowns were dominated by retail stores\, office based businesses\, professionals and government agencies\, along with some hotels and maybe entertainment venues. Today\, in downtowns large and small\, the CBD functions are being rivaled or even surpassed by their Central Social District (CSD) functions. That includes housing\, restaurants and watering holes\, and vibrant entertainment niches that include not only venues for formal entertainments such cinemas\, theaters\, museums and concert halls\, but also lively parks\, plazas\, and other gathering areas. Your downtown’s competitive advantage is therefore changing in important ways. Looking beyond the draw of speciality retail and entertainment\, innovative downtown leaders and community planners are seizing on the opportunity to re-brand and fully embrace the downtown as the “heart of the community” where people come to gather\, celebrate\, meet friends\, and make new ones.  Art venues\, libraries\, and a myriad of informal entertainment venues are seen as increasingly important components of downtown revitalization because they improve quality of life and create more vibrant experiences for downtown visitors. But how do they fit into the overall fabric of a downtown\, both economically and physically? What other downtown assets can be leveraged and tied into these types of interventions? This webinar will explain how the concept of the central social distric (CSD)t can be used as a planning tool to integrate new approaches into downtown in a smart\, strategic way. Presenters will discuss downtown business niches  and how they can be grown using the CSD concept. Case studies from two communities will illustrate how the CSD concept supports (and in fact drives) downtown economic development. Participants will also learn about innovative ways to help fund this next wave of downtown investment.

SUMMARY:Fixing Flooding: One Community at a Time
DESCRIPTION:CONFERENCE BACKGROUND:  Flooding\, even from small storm events\, has been affecting the quality of life of New Jersey’s residents.  Based upon a preliminary land cover analysis of New Jersey\, the state has covered 12.1% of the land with impervious surfaces\, which is 1\,055 square miles of impervious cover or 675\,200 acres of impervious cover.  During a one-inch rainfall event\, 18.3 billion gallons of stormwater runs off these surfaces.  Many of these impervious surfaces are directly connected to our local waterways\, meaning that every drop of rain that lands on these surfaces drains directly to a stream\, river\, lake or bay without any treatment or having the opportunity to infiltrate into the soil.  Pollutants accumulate on these impervious surfaces and are washed into New Jersey’s waterways during storm events.  Additionally\, these impervious surfaces prevent rainfall from infiltrating into the ground to replenish the state’s aquifers.  Limited infiltration of rainwater results in reduced base flow to the local streams that rely on groundwater during the dry summer months.  \nGreen infrastructure can be used to reduce the impacts from these impervious surfaces.  Green infrastructure practices such as porous asphalt\, bioretention systems\, and rain gardens can be very effective at capturing\, treating\, and infiltrating stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces.  Green infrastructure practices also can provide an opportunity to collect and use rainwater for non-potable uses.  Many green infrastructure practices provide ancillary benefits such as providing pollinator habitat\, sequestering carbon\, reducing the heat island effect\, and improving air quality. \nOver the last several years\, green infrastructure practices have been implemented across New Jersey.  These projects have clearly demonstrated the effectiveness and resiliency of green infrastructure technologies.  Water resources planning over the last 12 years has resulted in the creation of regional stormwater management plans\, watershed restoration and protection plans\, green infrastructure feasibility studies\, and impervious cover reduction action plans.  All of these plans are good tools to identify opportunities for retrofitting existing development with green infrastructure practices.  Green infrastructure technology has proven to be a cost effective means to reduce the impacts of impervious surfaces.  The final step is to further empower local communities to advocate for green infrastructure and to implement practices. \nPURPOSE:  The purpose of the conference is to educate stakeholders and engage them in addressing the impacts of stormwater runoff from impervious cover.  The workshop will acknowledge on-going efforts by the Sustainable Raritan River Collaborative and showcase their work.  It will also provide attendees an opportunity to network and develop new partnerships so they can better achieve the goal of a sustainable Raritan River Basin. \nREGISTRATION:  To register for this conference\, please click here.   \nRegistration will close at 11pm on Friday\, February 19th!

SUMMARY:Policy Briefing: Regulatory Reform
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW\nNew Jersey\, with its 566 municipalities and multiple layers of government has a complex regulatory system.  Developers find navigating this process time consuming and costly.  Local officials on the other hand want to have a level of assurance that the project they are approving will meet their needs and specifications.  This Policy Briefing is two-fold and will explore both multiple layers of government regulations and MLUL requirements for preliminary approval process.  Experts in the field will consider the merits of existing regulations and whether or not there are viable alternatives.\n \nThe first of two panels will discuss overlapping regulatory oversight.  Do these multiple layers result in better outcomes or is there a way to consolidate similar requirements\, while insuring that important environmental resources are protected?  \n \nDave Fisher will kick off part two of the morning with an overview of proposed amendments to the MLUL to revise the preliminary permitting process.  A panel representing different perspectives will respond to the proposed legislation.

SUMMARY:Webinar: APA’s New Aging-in-Community Programs
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW\nWhile aging in place enables older adults to live at home independently\, Aging in Community promotes social capital—a sense of social connectedness and interdependence – with systems of support and caring to maximize one’s ability to remain at home in their community. Aging demographics challenge the shape of our policies\, planning and physical environments. A 2010 Metlife survey of 1400 local governments revealed that limited progress has been made in undertaking a comprehensive assessment to create a livable community for all ages. Planners play a key role in the provision of structures and services that support or hinder resident well-being\, productivity\, and prosperity. APA has developed a toolkit to help planners and public officials to address the unprecedented challenges of aging communities: a web portal of resources on ‘Aging and Livable Communities’; A policy guide on Aging in Community; a multigenerational planning framework for decision-making; and a new Planning Advisory Service report\, Planning Age-Supportive Communities\, with practical guidance to help communities develop aging-supportive programs. Leading players share the back stories behind the documents.
