SUMMARY:Embracing New Urbanism in Your Comprehensive Plan (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:For some time now\, many planners have struggled to demonstrate to the public how development that embraces new urbanist principles can benefit a community rather than increase traffic\, increase crime\, increase demand on services\, which is a common perception of new urbanism and all of which we as planners know to be typical planning myths. The purpose of this session is to present how many communities are rethinking their long-term development policies that may once have embraced low-density\, suburban development to incorporate more new urbanism principles such as a focus on infill development over greenfield development; a desire to create walkable neighborhoods with access to local businesses; and an understanding that high-density development is not the “plague” on society that some of the public may once have believed. This change in policy direction is often the direct result of a comprehensive planning effort that strives to engage the public in a transparent\, open dialogue with a strong educational component on the benefits of new urbanism. This webcast will look at how a number of communities have succeeded in shifting their development policies to embrace new urbanism through the comprehensive planning process. The intent of this session is to outline how the comprehensive planning process is an ideal setting to introduce\, educate\, or reevaluate the incorporation of new urbanism principles in the future development and redevelopment of a community. Participants should be able to gain further insight on how best to engage and educate the public about new urbanism principles; to be careful in the format of the public participation (e.g.\, not misusing images or graphics to sway support\, utilizing appropriate information and data\, etc.)\, and to consider the various avenues of implementation (e.g.\, form-based code\, development incentives\, PUDs\, etc.). \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Town Centers: their conditions to success\, economic opportunity\, and preferences toward inviting\, walkable places (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:The success of several town center developments during the late 1990’s/early 2000’s dispelled conventional wisdom regarding the superiority of enclosed suburban shopping malls\, demonstrating in economically measurable ways a preference by many toward open-air\, mixed-use\, pedestrian-oriented places with attractive public space. What followed was a frenzy of town center and lifestyle center development—including well-conceived projects and poorly-conceived ones—that thrived\, met expectations\, or failed. Dismissed by some as artificial urban replicas\, successful town centers nevertheless serve as value-adding catalysts for other land uses\, such as office and hotel\, and provide a model for a better-integration of uses than is found at conventional shopping centers and office parks. While typically found at suburban interchange locations\, town centers offer valuable lessons for existing retail districts; further\, town centers have\, in some instances\, been successfully integrated into urban environments. This session highlights many of the conditions (with emphasis on market analysis and urban design) that lead to viable town centers\, primarily through case study of town centers across the country. Case studies of public/private partnerships will also be provided. The success of the town center strategy\, which focuses on the creation of great places to create value premiums\, has broad implications for planning\, since it has provided market validation of a number of planning and urban design principles. That these successes have occurred\, often in the absence of regional policies that support placemaking\, could point to a broader cultural shift and future support for place-friendly policies. \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Designing Downtown NOW: Real Tactics and Tools to Enhance Your Businesses and Districts (CM | 3.75)
DESCRIPTION:APA Member Discount Code (10% off):  APA-NJDRMI2012 \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER NOW \n\nAt the 2012 National Main Street Conference in Baltimore\, one of the highest-rated sessions that was so completely overfilled they had to literally bar the doors was Give your District New Life in Two Days for Less than $2\,000. \nWell\, we’ve taken that session and its presenters and expanded it for New Jersey in New Jersey at the upcoming DRMI in Atlantic City on July 25. \nThe APA-NJ is a key promotional partner for the event and as such 3.75 AICP CM Credits are offered for full day attendance. \nAgain\, this DRMI is all about making change happen NOW(!) as in over the next 3-12 months\, not making plans to do things later. It’s about doing things that may need some coordination and effort\, but not a ton of money. It’s about tangible and the visible changes for both your storefronts and merchandising and the district itself. You and your firma and organizations should receive a lot of great take-away’s from the entire day (including lunch)\, but any business and property owners you engage with should absolutely come for the morning session to walk out with actionable\, effective and affordable ideas for improving their storefronts\, inside and out! \nAnd since it’s in Atlantic City\, you always have the option to “Do AC” either the evening before or after or both\, depending on how you want to approach things. We hope to have a hotel deal through MSAC out to you shortly…stay tuned for that! Please share this with your organizations\, stakeholders and partners. We look forward to seeing you all there!

SUMMARY:A Tale of Three Waterfronts  (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:For decades\, the waterfronts of our port cities were the drivers of regional economic development. But as markets changed in the mid-Twentieth Century\, these areas in many cities became derelict eyesores\, economic black holes that sucked the energy out of these once-thriving urban centers. Over the past few decades\, however\, new approaches to the function and utility of urban waterfronts have given these districts a new vitality and vibrancy. This webinar will present the waterfront redevelopment stories of three small cities: Portland\, Maine; Portsmouth\, New Hampshire; and Burlington\, Vermont. It will highlight the economic\, social\, and environmental forces at play as these cities work to redefine themselves. \n Click here to register.
