SUMMARY:South Hoboken Waterfront Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Please RSVP to APA-NJ Professional Development Officer Christopher Brown \n\nThe City of Hoboken’s South Hoboken Waterfront has been named a Great Place in New Jersey for 2013 by the American Planning Association-New Jersey Chapter (APA-NJ).   The City will be hosting a Walking Tour on Friday\, October 18 from 2pm-4pm. The Walking Tour will highlight the South Hoboken Waterfront and present the processes which were involved in its industrial-to-recreational transformation.  The walking tour will begin at Pier A Park\, on the corner of Sinatra Drive and Newark Street. Participants are strongly encouraged to commute to Hoboken via public transit. \nThe Hoboken Waterfront first served as a recreational port in the 19th century\, when steamboats carried Manhattanites looking to escape the bustle of urban life to the sanctuary of nature. Two centuries later\, the former resort community of Hoboken has evolved into a thriving city\, and the waterfront has become a leafy sanctuary for people across the region. The Hoboken Waterfront has transformed in recent decades from an industrial seaport into a bustling recreational center. \nThe most prominent feature of the Hoboken Waterfront is the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway\, which stretches in its entirety approximately 18.5 miles along the Hudson River across nine (9) municipalities. Pier A Park is located on a pier in the Hudson River extending from the southern end of Hoboken\, (just north of the Hoboken Terminal) north to First Street. Pier C Park is located to the north of Pier A Park\, on a pier starting at the intersection of Fourth Street and Sinatra Drive. The portion of the  Hudson River Waterfront Walkway along this area is a wide sidewalk plaza that extends from Hoboken Terminal north to Fourth Street and is situated on the east side of Frank Sinatra Drive. \nThe South Hoboken Waterfront is a source of civic pride to Hoboken residents and serves as an outlet for physical activities and a temporary escape from an urban setting. Its proximity to the multi-modal transit hub at Hoboken Terminal lends itself to being a regional open space destination in the tri-state area. Visitors can access the Waterfront’s open space facilities via NJ Transit Rail\, NYNJ PATH subway trains\, Hudson-Bergen Light Rail\, NJ Transit Bus\, Hoboken Hop Shuttle Bus and NY Waterway Ferry.  \n* This tour has applied for Certification Maintenance Credits for AICP Planning Professionals.

SUMMARY:Leaky Pipes (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:Leaking underground water infrastructure is posing increasing public health threats. Planners have recently rediscovered our roots in public health\, but the problem of leaking underground infrastructure has not captured the attention of the planning profession. To the extent that aging water infrastructure is studied at all\, it is primarily in the context of cities in developing regions\, not in the U.S. Although APA and some other civic leadership organizations have highlighted the state of deterioration of U.S. water infrastructure\, much greater attention has been paid to the efforts to implement green infrastructure. The buried infrastructure of pipes is out of sight\, and seemingly out of mind as well. \nThe presentation is based on water quality research conducted by other scholars and practitioners in the Milwaukee metro area\, a literature review\, and interviews by Nancy Frank with a small sample of planning directors in southeast Wisconsin. \nThis presentation describes the scope of the problem in terms of public health risks. federal and state drinking water\, water quality\, and stormwater laws require permittees to address leaky infrastructure\, but local implementers often interpret these requirements in ways that ignore the potential infectious disease risk posed. Planners arguably have a role to play in quantifying the magnitude of the challenge and identifying cost-effective strategies for making accelerated progress in repairing our aging pipes in order to reduce the risk of infectious disease\, reduce costs\, assure a fair and equitable distribution of costs\, and identify innovative programs to achieve these goals. \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Calculating Developer Contributions (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:Public actions—such as investments in infrastructure and the provision of public services—can dramatically increase the dollar value of private land. While local governments seek to capture a portion of that value to address various needs\, planners often don’t know how to determine if a given request is reasonable. This session shows how to calculate the increase in value of private land due to public actions and develop a reasonable figure for developer contributions. This knowledge is particularly helpful to those working in urban design and preservation where much of what is achieved is through negotiating developer contributions. This session was first presented at the APA National Conference in Chicago in 2013. \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Where The Boom Babies Grew Up - Post WWII era Suburban Tracts and Complexes (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:As we move toward more transit oriented development and work to retrofit our existing suburbs\, we search for opportunities to use existing infrastructure and land area efficiently. As we evaluate these opportunities\, it is important to fully understand the residential developments in these suburban areas of the post-WWII era — both lower density modest single-family house tracts and garden apartment complexes with acres of green space. Which of these – if any – are worth preserving intact …and why? And how might we make such qualitative judgments especially where redevelopment offers a way to provide more affordable housing? This concerns not only the physical features of these tracts and complexes but the associations some of them may have with significant people or events. We need to understand what tradeoffs are appropriate when hard decisions are being made about where retrofitting and redevelopment should occur. \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Green Parking\, Sustainable Urban Mobility and Placemaking (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:86% of Americans drive to work (with an average trip distance of less than 20 miles)\, 75% drive alone\, and have done so pretty consistently over the past 25 years\, according to the US Census and the APA. We already paved paradise and put up a parking lot. In response\, the Green Parking Council (GPC at www.greenparkingcouncil.org) works to transform parking facilities and lots from the public face of a fossil-fueled\, congestion-producing culture to an enabler of sustainable urban mobility and an accelerator of neighborhood-scale sustainability. This webinar session will highlight trends in transport\, and explore sustainable mobility and solutions emerging from local and national partnerships. Successes around the country will be showcased\, and strategies noted that scale up the movement. GPC’s tools include: Energy efficient technologies; Hosting of bike-sharing\, car-sharing\, carpooling\, and mass-transit\, EV charging; Responsible storm water management\, Integration of intelligent transportation; Placemaking: parking assets right-sized\, as well-designed\, responsible neighbors; Resiliency: parking garages as energy storage and deployment centers in times of crisis; Green Garage Certification: a program inspiring parking assets to be a positive force in the built environment. \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Success Stories in Sustainability:  The Common Ground Program (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:The Common Ground Program is a community gardening and urban agriculture program created by the city of Lawrence\, Kan. In the winter of 2011\, the city surveyed its vacant and underutilized properties\, identified appropriate sites for agriculture and made these sites available through an application process for citizens. During the 2012 growing season\, five pilot sites were opened to the public through partnerships with neighborhood associations\, nonprofit organizations and schools. The five sites include two neighborhood community gardens\, a youth-focused garden in a city park\, a community orchard for free picking\, and a market farm coordinated by college and middle school students. This webinar will provide an overview of the Common Ground Program\, an outline the goals of the project goals\, community benefits and lessons learned. The webinar will also provide insight on funding sources and potential partnerships that other communities or organizations may utilize in pursuing similar efforts. \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Webinar - Planning for Climate Change in New Jersey: Tools for Planners (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:New Jersey’s leading experts in climate change have been busy creating an assortment of tools to help us visualize the potential future impacts of climate change.  What’s more\, they are looking for ways to help communities prepare for and to adapt to “a new reality” that includes frequent changes in temperature\, precipitation and sea level.   Living in a state that is on pace to bear the impacts of climate change more quickly and harshly than others\, New Jersey planners should be familiar with the most current research and best practices for addressing climate change. \nSpeakers from the New Jersey Climate Change Adaptation Alliance will demonstrate historical observations in climate that have scientists so concerned\, and what we can expect for the future.  They will provide the results of a recent survey that tested New Jersey’s planners knowledge and beliefs about climate change.  Most critically\, they will present the leading best practices in climate change preparation.  The session will also feature a presentation by Richard Lathrop from the Center for Remote Sensing and Spatial Analysis (CRASSA) at Rutgers about the NJ FloodMapper tool\, as well as other available tools that can assist planners in addressing Climate Change at the local and regional levels.    \n“A changing climate and rising sea levels will have a devastating impact on New Jersey’s economy\, the health of our residents\, the State’s natural resources\, and the extensive infrastructure system that delivers transportation services\, energy and clean water to millions of New Jerseyans.”  – New Jersey Climate Change Adaptation Alliance \nPart 1: Climate Change Trends and Projections in New JerseyDr. Marjorie Kaplan\, Associate Director\, Rutgers University Climate Institute \nPart 2: Survey Says: What New Jersey’s Planners think about Climate Change Raimy Schutzman\, Master’s Degree candidate\, Rutgers Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy \nPart 3: Today’s Leading Practices and Methods for Preparing for Climate Change Stacy Perrine\, Senior Research Associate\, Rutgers Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy \nPart 4: Tools for Visualizing Climate Change Impacts and Resiliency PlanningRichard (Rick) G. Lathrop\, JR\, Director of the Walton Center for Remote Sensing & Spatial Analysis \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER NOW \nThis event is brought to you by our APA-NJ Northeast Area Representative Jessica Giorgianni and co-sponsored by the APA-NJ Hazard Mitigation and Recovery Planning Committee and the New Jersey Climate Change Adaptation Alliance

SUMMARY:Functional Classification: So Important That No One Wants to Talk About It (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:Functional classification is a transportation topic that is often left for engineers to sort out\, but it has a huge impact on urban planning. Anyone involved in urban planning – including community stakeholders – should be part of the dialogue surrounding the function of public streets. Functional classification is a way that transportation professionals group streets according to the type of traffic they serve and the degree of access expected to adjacent land uses. Few transportation issues are as important as functional classification\, and yet it is one of the least understood or debated. Despite the Federal Highway Administration’s advocacy of flexible design standards\, typical practice in the United States has been very rigid\, leading to unintended negative consequences. For new urbanism\, that means streets that require almost highway speeds and lane widths—physical impacts that are contrary to the overall purpose of new urban planning. For example\, in some areas an Urban Principal Arterial might require a minimum 45 MPH design speed and minimum 12-foot wide lanes\, even if the surrounding land uses need more appropriate (i.e. livable\, sustainable) solutions. This webcast will incorporate very specific examples that are typical of public transportation networks throughout the United States. \n Click here to register.

SUMMARY:The State of Takings After Koontz (CM Law | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:Last month\, the US Supreme Court handed down its decision in Koontz v. St. Johns River Water Management District. In this complex 5-4 decision\, the court ruled that monetary conditions attached to land use permits are now subject to the heightened scrutiny tests of nexus and rough proportionality found in Nollan and Dolan – and that these tests also apply to permit denials\, as was the case here. What does this important decision mean to planners? Depending on your point of view\, this ruling could be seen to “threaten the heartland of local land use regulation” (Justice Kagan’s dissent) or it could be viewed as a minor shift in law and practice. Because of the complexity and ambiguity of the court’s ruling\, it’s not perfectly clear. To help you understand what Koontz means\, join with two of the country’s leading experts in land use law: Professor John Echeverria of Vermont Law School and Dwight Merriam\, Esq.\, FAICP of Robinson & Cole LLP. \nClick here to register.
