SUMMARY:Phased Re-Planning and Legal Challenges in a COVID-19 World
DESCRIPTION:Register Now \n  \nWith phased reopening underway\, planning and zoning departments across the country are trying to accommodate new methods of operation in a COVID-19 world\, as well as how those changes will carry over once we are out of the pandemic. Many planners are now armed with new tools authorized by executive order. But are these planning tools enough? Are there legal barriers that could impede their success? This program will focus on legal and planning issues which are likely to arise as businesses reopen and the pandemic concludes. Topics to be discussed will include legal issues with executive orders\, virtual hearings (and whatever hybrid form they may soon take)\, relaxation of zoning regulations and local codes\, expedited permitting processes\, and actions that can be taken now to be better prepared for the next pandemic. The program will also address equity considerations related to these issues. Each panelist will offer a different perspective on this topic as a law professor\, mayor\, and land use attorneys representing private developers and municipalities. The discussion and best practices shared are intended to assist planners in other disaster situations.

SUMMARY:Webinar: COVID-19 Effects on Real Estate Demand
DESCRIPTION:Presented by APA New Jersey\nPlease Note: Due to capacity\, this webinar is limited to APA Region 1 Members only. APA Membership ID is required at registration. \nRegister Now \nAs the Metro New York economy begins to reactivate through phased reopening\, uncertainty remains as to the lasting effects on real estate demand. At the root of this question is whether initial reports of households relocating to the suburbs are just a short-term blip or part of a continuing trend. Additional questions include the potential for rebound in the homeownership rate (and corresponding decrease in rentership)\, financial feasibility and optimal program mixes for apartment projects already in the development pipeline\, and the long term viability of retail and office uses. \nThis is the event you cannot afford to miss! Get your laptop and come into Jeffrey Otteau’s living room to hear his forecast for the near- and long-term impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic on real estate demand. Mr. Otteau is a 40-year valuation expert who has lectured across North America and is followed more than 10\,000 real estate professionals\, developers and bankers who rely on his forecasts to provide forward guidance on emerging real estate trends. He has been recognized as one of the most influential people in the real estate industry with television appearances on CNBC\, Bloomberg\, NBC News and Fox 5 News and frequently quoted in the New York Times and Wall Street Journal. When Jeffrey Otteau talks\, it’s worth listening to what he has to say. Here’s a sampling of topics to be covered in this webinar:\nState of the Economy: What began with accelerating economic growth and rising consumer enthusiasm has quickly shifted to sheer panic as unemployment is already higher than during the Great Depression. Learn about the real-time effects on the economy to this point\, and what it tells us about the future. \nReal Estate Market Impacts: Although we are in uncharted waters\, it’s clear that the short-term impact on real estate markets has been crippling. This fast-paced roundup will examine what’s happening at the sector level for apartments\, commercial real estate and home sales as the economic shutdown choked off market demand and begins to recover. \nConsequences for Construction Spending: While the shutdown has already caused a slowdown for ongoing projects\, and new construction starts\, the long-term effects are even more concerning. Will activity bounce back quickly\, or will there be permanent consequences that carry forward to future years as developers and governments deal with financial constraints? Is an infrastructure spending bill on the horizon\, or will it remain stalled? Find out the forecast for spending in this essential economic sector. \nRecovery Timeline: How long will it take to find our way back? While declines in asset values and construction spending have already occurred\, the more difficult questions are for ‘How Long’ and by ‘How Much”. And while much uncertainty remains\, we’ll tell you about our projections for what happens next in the economy\, real estate markets and construction sector so you can adjust your planning models during this challenging time.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Coronavirus Economic Shocks: A New Planning World?
DESCRIPTION:Register Now \nThe “Great Contraction” has sent New Jersey into economic freefall. In just two months\, total employment in the state has fallen to the same level as 1985\, thirty-five years ago. In addition to deep short-term recession woes\, the shocks of the coronavirus are accelerating the pace of structural change and raising profound questions and uncertainties about the future. \nFor example\, the “office” is central to the economy of New Jersey. Will the magnitude of distress in office markets caused by the pandemic match the distress of bricks and mortar retailing caused by the rise of e-commerce? While the post-pandemic office has yet to be invented\, there will certainly be a rebalancing of office ecologies\, with significant planning implications. \nBuilding dense\, walkable\, transit-dependent\, mixed-use\, LWP (live\, work\, play) environments was a planning and development mantra of the past decade. Low-density\, automobile-centric suburbs were viewed as fading obsolete relics of the twentieth century\, while the “cool quotient” of urban areas soared. Can these pre-pandemic structures endure and adapt to post-pandemic health strictures? Will there be a pandemic-induced “resprawling” of New Jersey? \nThese are just some of the questions that the planning profession must confront. Join James W. Hughes and Joseph J. Seneca\, co-authors of the new Rutgers Regional Report monthly series labeled “Fast Track Research Notes.” Its first issue – Coronavirus Economic Shocks: New Jersey versus The Nation – was released on June 1. This webinar will be moderated by Charles Latini\, President of APA New Jersey. \nThis has been submitted for 1 AICP CM credit.

SUMMARY:Webcast: Women in Planning: The Road to FAICP
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\n  \nFemale planners only comprise of 22 percent of the FAICP College of Fellows membership within APA. While there is a gradual increase in the number of female nominations and inductees throughout recent years\, the current gender disparity of membership is alarming. The AICP College of Fellows program\, which began in 1998 to “recognize planners whose career exhibits excellence\,” is regarded as the highest honor the AICP bestows upon a member. Join the APA Women & Planning Division for a lively discussion highlighting the importance of supporting\, amplifying\, and inducting more influential women planners into the FAICP class. A panel of distinguished women planners will discuss the importance of FAICP\, the rigorous nominations process\, the importance of nominating women\, will share their own experiences in creating submissions as well as what the experience was like to be inducted into the College of Fellows.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Taxation: Zoning\, & Licensing for Short-Term Residential Rentals
DESCRIPTION:Register\nIn 2015\, with the Pope and tons of visitors heading to town\, Philadelphia became the largest city in North America to legalize short-term residential rentals (such as ones listed on AirBnB\, HomeAway.com\, and through other booking agents). With changes to the city’s zoning and tax code\, a system was put into place that addressed the interests of property owners renting spare rooms and entire units\, the guests they hosted\, neighbors and traditional hotel operators. An interdisciplinary group worked together to ensure local legislation matched the reality of activity already occurring and the needs of the community. This session will cover the challenges faced and policy options considered\, plus a comparison to other cities and counties across the United States.

SUMMARY:Webinar: A Dozen Tools for Accelerating Local Sustainability Leadership
DESCRIPTION:Register\nOver half of the world’s population now lives in cities\, where built environment decisions endure for decades\, impacting social and economic prospects for generations. In response\, a new class of sustainability appraisal tools has emerged that gauge equity\, resiliency\, and resource efficiency at neighborhood\, city\, and urban component scales. These tools can provide stakeholders with inclusive and transparent systems that support and accelerate local leadership on critical issues of sustainability. In the face of a faltering national commitment\, the use and advocacy of these tools by communities takes on even greater significance and urgency. The webinar will examine major U.S. tools for assessing the sustainability of neighborhoods\, cities\, and their components\, including: 2030 Districts\, APA Sustaining Places\, EcoDistricts Protocol\, Enterprise Green Communities\, Envision for infrastructure\, LEED for Neighborhoods\, LEED for Cities & Communities\, Living Community Challenge\, STAR Community\, Sustainable SITES\, and WELL District. Each tool will be reviewed in terms of assessment scope\, intended users\, rating procedure\, costs\, and output. And a set of evaluation criteria will be presented for judging and selecting the best tools for community and neighborhood needs. Webinar learning objectives include: understanding the value of urban sustainability assessment\, recognizing the qualities of an appraisal tool\, learning the range of available tools\, and knowing how to select a tool.

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Comprehensive Planner: Taking a Systems Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Register\nSteve Whitman and Chris Parker will explore the many problems facing communities of all sizes\, and the underlying issue of ecosystem services. They will explore how thinking holistically and using a systems perspective can provide a new way forward for communities. While planning documents may take a systems perspective\, land use regulations seldom do. This integrated approach provides for the regeneration of lost ecosystem services\, and the resulting projects will help your community become more adaptive and resilient over time. Case study examples will be shared to highlight how to apply this approach\, and to serve as a call to action so more planners become part of this collaborative effort.

SUMMARY:Webcast: Reshoring - The Urgent Need to Bring Manufacturing Back to America
DESCRIPTION:Register \nAmerican companies’ are on a quest to Reshore production. According to a 2014 study\, 54% of US manufacturers over $1billion in revenue are considering Reshoring some or all of their manufacturing. Site evaluation and the correct site selection are critical to the success of these projects. Establishing manufacturing at the right site has an economic multiplier effect on communities. Manufacturing jobs pay well and workers use their wages to buy homes\, cars and other goods in the local community. Everybody wins. Reshoring is a very popular idea among businesses\, their customers and governments where jobs growth will have the most impact. But it’s not that simple. Reshoring requires a carefully crafted journey through innovation\, automation\, localization of products and site/community selection. You will learn about the major components in this decision and what you need to develop a business case to bring manufacturing back to specific communities. We will also learn about some reshoring failures\, where selecting the wrong site had devastating results.

SUMMARY:Webcast: Housing for People with Disabilities: A Civil Rights Lens
DESCRIPTION:Register \nThis presentation will discuss significant changes in housing for people with disabilities over the last several years. Enforcement of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Supreme Court’s decision in Olmstead v. L.C. – which requires public entities to offer their services to people with disabilities in “the integrated setting” – has led to statewide system reform of housing systems\, moving away from congregate disability-specific housing to expanding access to scattered-site supportive housing. Ms. Barkoff will discuss the requirements of the ADA and Olmstead and describe the housing provisions in recent Olmstead settlement agreements. The changing landscape of disability housing has also been impacted by changes in the disability service system\, including new requirements for settings in which publicly-funded community-based services can be provided. Ms. Barkoff will explain how these changes in the service system may lead to change in housing systems. Finally\, Mr. Frost will describe implementation of an Olmstead settlement agreement in his home state of New Hampshire. \nCM 1.5

SUMMARY:Webcast: Responding to the FCC New Collocation Rules – How to Avoid "Deemed Granted”
DESCRIPTION:Register \nThe FCC adopted new rules at its Oct. 17 meeting that are likely to require changes in the way local governments respond to applications for siting wireless towers\, and for adding antennas to\, and modifying\, existing structures. The rules could necessitate an immediate review and revision of wireless siting ordinances in many communities\, and have important implications for the way states and localities deal with siting of wireless facilities in historic districts and environmentally sensitive areas. The change in the rules may also affect the approach of public agencies\, schools\, special districts and local governments to leasing of their own property. \nCM 1.5

SUMMARY:Webcast: Recent Changes to the National Flood Insurance Program: What can a planner do?
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\nSeventy years ago\, efforts to control floodwater in the United States focused on structural projects such as dams\, levees\, and seawalls. This approach did not reduce flood losses and development continued in flood hazard areas. A broader strategy developed over time to include both the management of floodwater and damage-prone development. Established by the U.S. Congress in 1968\, the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) provides a general framework to mitigate future flood losses that communities must adopt and enforce as a condition for federally backed flood insurance protection. Mounting flood losses and recent catastrophic events\, however\, have bankrupted the NFIP. This financial instability led to the adoption of the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act in 2012 (BW-12) to extend the NFIP for five years and make significant changes in insurance and mapping requirements. The insurance requirements were designed to make the NFIP self-supporting\, but had significant unintended consequences. The Homeowner Flood Insurance Affordability Act of 2014 now repeals and modifies certain provisions of BW-12. This presentation will review some of these changes and outline steps that planners can take to mitigate present and future impacts of the new law. Planners are best trained to synthesize the multi-disciplinary nature of hazard mitigation planning and can be at the forefront of achieving reductions in losses to life and property as well as creating safer communities. \nCM 1.5

SUMMARY:Webcast: Meeting Local Housing Needs with Smart Growth Tools in 2014
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\nAre you a local government planner facing resistance to the development of affordable housing land use tools or affordable housing developments? Are you finding that either because of the housing bubble burst\, the economic recession\, or changes in ideology over the role of government\, that tools previously put in place to further the development of affordable housing are being rolled back? This webinar is designed to help you make the case for implementing the most effective smart growth policies for ensuring that your community has an adequate supply of housing for the continuum of need: from workforce housing to seniors who need help to age in place. We will specifically address inclusionary zoning\, community land trusts\, accessory dwelling units\, and tools for avoiding and overcoming NIMBYism. \nCM 1.5

SUMMARY:Webcast: Is It Time to Stop Planning “Complete Streets”?
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\n“Complete street” is a transportation term that refers to a corridor designed for all modes of transportation. Washington\, DC has made national news for its emphasis on the fundamental modes of transportation – walking and biking. It’s also home to one of the most recognizable mass transit systems. So why would the District Department of Transportation propose a scenario that eliminates complete streets? How do they propose safely accommodating users from so many different modes of travel? This webcast will cover the following: 1) Trade-offs associated with physically separating travel modes; 2) Corridor planning vs. network planning; 3) Transportation mode hierarchy; and 4) Placemaking treatments based on street function. \nCM 1.5

SUMMARY:Webcast: Drought Planning Toolbox: State Strategies for Mitigation and Adaptation
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\nDrought is becoming an increasingly important issue for planners at the local\, regional and state levels. Drought impacts vary by region\, but it affects everything from the most obvious — water supply — to ecosystems\, the built environment\, regional economies and human health. Mitigation and adaptation to drought requires attention and collaboration among planners\, water engineers and natural resource experts. In 1998\, more than one-third of the U.S. was affected by drought. The event began on the West Coast\, spanned the Rocky Mountain region and\, eventually\, the upper Midwest. In 2007-2008\, a drought impacted Georgia\, resulting in inter-state conflicts over water rights. Today\, California is in the midst of a truly historic drought event. Tools and techniques\, such as those outlined in the APA Planning Advisory Service report\, “Planning and Drought\,” are emerging to bring together the various disciplines involved in water management and land use. The Drought Planning Toolbox webinar will feature speakers from California\, Colorado and the Susquehanna River Commission who will share their experiences and best practices from their regions in preparing for and responding to drought. Highlighted strategies will focus on mitigation\, adaptation and drought planning; participants will learn about drought plans adopted by states and regions and key elements of drought mitigation and adaptation. Participants also will learn about how collaboration and intergovernmental coordination is essential for drought adaptation and resilience efforts. And finally\, participants will be provided information on how strategies have been put into practice in California\, Colorado and the Susquehanna Basin states. \nCM 1.5
