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: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:New (Webinar) Data Tools for Supporting Analysis of Equitable Development and Environmental Justice
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW\nUnderstanding the challenges andopportunities communities face—economic\, social\, and environmental—is a prerequisite for making investments that achieve their goals. To respond to this need\, environmental justice stakeholders have begun developing analytical tools that can give communities rich and accessible information for supporting local goals for environmental protection and equitable development in cities and regions. This webinar will cover two of these tools – EPA’s EJSCREEN\, an environmental justice screening and mapping tool\, and the National Equity Atlas a comprehensive data resource to track\, measure\, and make the case for inclusive growth developed by PolicyLink and the Program for Environmental and Regional Equity. The presentations will explain what these tools are\, how they have been used in real world scenarios to advance equity in local and regional development practices\, followed by questions and answers.

SUMMARY:(Webinar) The New “Cottage” Industry: Housing\, Lodging\, and the Sharing Economy
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW\nThe new Sharing Economy has enabled the availability of private short-term rental properties like never before. Web-based clearinghouses for short-term rentals\, such as VRBO and AirBnB\, have changed the economic and regulatory landscape of short-term rental markets. These changes are felt in municipalities of all sizes. While some communities experience strains on the availability of long-term rental housing\, others value the short-terms rentals as a supplement to traditional lodging options. This session will explore the relationship of the short-term rental sector of the sharing economy to land use and tax regulation and social and economic factors in resort and destination communities. Sponsored by the Small Town and Rural Planning Division.
