SUMMARY:New FCC Guidance Impacts Local Control of Wireless Facilities (CM Law |1.5)
DESCRIPTION:Recent federal legislation on collocations\, FCC non-binding guidance and now state level legislative proposals could dramatically impact your community’s planning authority and local zoning of wireless facilities towers. In this webinar\, BB&K telecommunications attorneys will provide an overview of the challenges and opportunities facing local governments as they attempt to protect local interests while complying with federal requirements governing zoning of wireless facilities and to defeat damaging state legislative proposals that are sweeping the nation. The webinar will cover: Federal laws on siting wireless facilities; as well as the newly passed collocation law; the FCC’s recent efforts to preempt and limit local governments’ zoning authority\, including the “shot clock” order; the FCC’s guidance about local authority over collocations\, including one interpretation that could greatly expand what facilities the telecommunications industry may add to existing towers\, poles and other platforms without any local oversight; what the guidance does not say about governments’ and special districts’ ownership of wireless communications facilities and their concerns for public safety and security; the FCC rulemaking\, expected to launch this summer\, which could transform this guidance into binding rules\, fashion new “shot clock” requirements and develop national model siting rules; the newest threats being seen in state legislatures to further undercut local government zoning authority under the guise of promoting public safety; and how local governments can positively influence and shape the rulemaking proceeding. \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:What NOT to do: Lessons Learned from the Failure of Others (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:A wise person once said\, “Learn from others mistakes\, you can’t possibly live long enough to make them all yourself.” No one who has been a party to a failed development or was taken in by a fraudulent real estate scheme thought that the project would turn out badly for them or their municipality. Unfortunately\, in the world of economic development there are plenty of examples of poorly-designed projects\, terrible advice\, real estate fads\, and clear fraud. As planners and economic developers\, we have a duty to our clients to provide sound advice and analysis to protect the interest of the municipality\, and ultimately the taxpayers. In this webinar we examine a few failed projects that damaged the financial position of the municipality that undertook them and consider what lessons we can learn from these unfortunate situations. “The wise learn from other people’s mistakes and fools from their own.” –Old Proverb. “The way of fools seems right to them\, but the wise listen to advice.” –King Solomon\, Circa 950 A.D. \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Hopewell Borough Walking Tour (CM | 2.0 Pending)
DESCRIPTION:Reschedule for 5/11 to 6/15 due to rain.   \nPlease RSVP to APA-NJ Central Area Representative\, Paul Gleitz at pgleitz@gmail.com. \n\nOriginally settled in the early 1700’s and later incorporated in 1891\, Hopewell Borough today remains one of New Jersey’s Great Places. New Jersey Monthly magazine consistently ranks Hopewell Borough as one of the “10 best small towns in NJ” and one of the “25 best places to call home in the Garden State.”  In 2012\, Hopewell Borough’s main thoroughfare\, Broad Street (CR 518)\, was named a Great Place in New Jersey by the American Planning Association-New Jersey Chapter (APA-NJ). Great Places offer better choices for where and how people work and live. They are enjoyable\, safe and desirable\, places where people want to live\, work and visit every day.  New Jersey’s great streets\, neighborhoods and public spaces are defined by many criteria\, including architectural features\, accessibility\, functionality and community activity. \nBroad Street\, with its many unique restaurants\, unique and antique shops\, specialty service or professional establishments and centuries-old residences\, is the focal point of the community. A concerted effort by town officials\, business owners and residents to retain the character\, charm and historic integrity of the Borough lead to funding in 2005 from NJDOT through a federal Transportation Enhancement (TE) grant to begin streetscape improvements in the central business district.  Phase I of the project included the removal of deteriorated concrete and bituminous sidewalk and curbing\, installation of new red and grey brick sidewalks\, hitching posts\, landscaping\, pedestrian scale lighting\, and other improvements.  Encouraged by the success of Phase I\, the Borough sought funding for Phase 2 for an additional $917\,000 grant from the NJDOT TE grant program in 2008 to continue the work.  Phase 2 improvements\, which added new handicap sidewalk ramps\, street furniture and ornamental planters in addition to the elements in Phase I\, were completed in 2011.  Supplementing the partnership with the State and federal government through grants\, the County of Mercer assisted with additional streetscape improvements. These improvements have accomplished much to increase pedestrian safety and slow vehicular travel\, so much so that Hopewell Borough is now featured as a key model for the Complete Streets initiative.  \nPlease join APA-NJ as it celebrates one of its 2012 Great Place in New Jersey award winners with a Walking Tour of Broad Street\, Hopewell Borough.  The Hopewell Borough Mayor\, Council members and other local stakeholders will walk with us and discuss the efforts made to retain the historic qualities of the area while seeking and investing grant monies into streetscape improvements.  Members are invited to attend a Cruise Night on Friday\, May 10th from 5pm to 8pm to see Broad Street as an active center of community life and return on Saturday morning\, May 11th from 10 am to noon for a walking tour with Borough officials to discuss the various factors that went into keeping Hopewell’s Broad Street such a unique place.  2 CM credits will be sought for the Saturday morning walking tour. \n\n\n\n\n		\n				\n						\n		\n								\n			\n		\n							\n			\n				\n						\n		\n								\n			\n		\n							\n			\n				\n						\n		\n								\n			\n		\n							\n			\n				\n						\n		\n								\n			\n		\n							\n			\n				\n						\n		\n								\n			\n		\n							\n			\n				\n						\n		\n								\n			\n		\n							\n			\n				\n						\n		\n								\n			\n		\n							\n			\n				\n						\n		\n								\n			\n		\n							\n			\n	\n	\n	\n\n

SUMMARY:Valley Arts District Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Come explore Orange’s Valley Arts District – a strikingly rich multicultural community nested in the Valley of West Orange and Orange. This is a terrific opportunity for planners to uncover the history and vibrant culture in the Valley Arts District. This area of Orange and West Orange has been experiencing a true renaissance where residents and visitors can now enjoy theatre\, arts education\, locally grown foods\, affordable artist live-work space\, public art\, and live music all within easy walking distance of each other and public transportation. This revitalization has been spurred by the Housing and Neighborhood Development Services (HANDS)\, Inc in their efforts to provide long-term affordable commercial arts and residential spaces to attract artists to the developing neighborhood. \nThe narrated one hour walk will include a tour of former industrial and commercial buildings rehabilitated by HANDS and now occupied by local artists\, innovators\, entrepreneurs and arts-based non-profit organizations. In addition to learning about the work of HANDS\, you’ll discover Orange’s origins as New Jersey’s “Hat City\,” see some hidden gems and get a peek at the growing artist community. Highlights along the tour will include examples of a community earth oven\, a hydroponic greenhouse\, a youth arts studio\, No Name Hat Factory formerly owned by the Stetson brothers\, and much more. Participants will also hear about future efforts for the neighborhood as part of the Creative Orange initiative – part of Creative New Jersey’s statewide effort championing creativity as a tool for discovering innovative approaches for a sustainable community and a dynamic economy. \nThe tour will begin and end at Hat City Kitchen\, 459 Valley Street in Orange and will be narrated by HANDS senior staff and Executive Director\, Patrick Morrissy. \nRSVP to Tiffany Robinson by email at ecdc.nj@gmail.com by June 13.

SUMMARY:Utilizing LEED for Neighborhood Development to Strengthen Your Municipal Sustainability Efforts (CM |1.5)
DESCRIPTION:USGBC and the Land Use Law Center at Pace University have recently launched two new\, free resources to help municipalities utilize the LEED for Neighborhood Development rating system to support their sustainable planning goals. While certification under the rating system is often best suited to development projects\, many elements of the rating system can be utilized as an open-source tool to strengthen local government planning efforts. These two resources explore in great detail the ways in which the rating system can be utilized translating those into direct action for planners complete with numerous case study examples. \nClick here to register.
