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

SUMMARY:Webcast: Creatively Transforming Streets for People in Los Angeles and Santa Monica
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\nLearn how Los Angeles\, Atlanta\, and Santa Monica used different\, yet equally practical\, applications of “tactical urbanism” to transform their streets in months\, not years. One pilot project involved a transformative streetscape master plan; the other uses “pop-up” demonstrations of a potential “Neighborhood Greenway” design to get residents involved. Hosted by the Urban Design and Preservation Division. \nCM 1.5

SUMMARY:Webcast: Environmental Justice: A New Model for Planning in Underserved Communities
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\nWhen EPA created the Office of Environmental Justice\, it required developing new tools for the purpose of engaging and working with the public\, including segments of the public that are underserved. Community planners and other allied professionals may be less familiar with the tools the Office of Environmental Justice has developed overtime to strengthen public involvement; encourage community action for a renewed environment; or advance collaborative environmental problem solving. For this webinar\, expert speakers will explain how environmental justice is a forward-thinking\, sustainable approach\, and they will share why a discussion about environmental justice is important given the renewed focus on social equity and planning among professionals. Speakers will explain how different communities have aligned environmental justice and municipal planning as complementary quality of life goals. Also\, the webinar will elevate tools that can be used by planners to address the needs of diverse communities. \nCM 1.5

SUMMARY:Webcast: Measuring Progress: Performance Metrics as a Tool in Shaping Policy
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\nIn a time when funding resources are scarce\, it is imperative to understand and demonstrate the positive impacts of planning and implementation of transportation investments on our communities. A number of efforts including RTD’s Quality of Life Study\, RTD’s TOD Program Metrics and the City of Denver’s TOD Strategic Plan have separate goals but similar methodologies. This session will discuss these programs and their applicability to projects from large scale to small scale. Participants will learn: 1. Why performance measures are important in tracking change over time. 2. How to avoid pitfalls in setting up a performance measures program. 3. Methods to convert qualitative concepts into quantitative measures. 4. How to set the stage for policy change through performance metric results. 5. How tracking TOD success over time promotes efficient use of city resources. \nCM 1.5
