SUMMARY:Exodus From Tyranny: Fighting for Just Systems as a National\, State\, and Local Imperative
DESCRIPTION:In the face of a collapsing public health infrastructure and deliberate attacks on government institutions and human and civil rights\, community health and our collective well-being are at risk. As the pendulum swings widely\, the fair solution is to build lasting safe spaces for equity and inclusion\, where health equity and social justice can be achieved. While various populations are pushed off the “Cliff of Good Health\,” the power of data stories\, coalition building\, storytelling for change\, and strong policy advocacy ensures the will of the people remains heard.\n\nDr. Pernell is a dynamic physician leader and social change agent. In her practice\, she focuses on health justice\, community-based advocacy\, and population-wide health promotion and disease prevention. A celebrated visionary and apostle of public health\, Dr. Chris serves as the Director of the NAACP Center for Health Equity. The Center is charged with driving equitable health outcomes and transforming healthcare systems while valuing the whole person. Prior to joining the nation’s oldest and most venerable civil rights organization\, she launched The Esther Group\, a public health consulting and health equity strategy firm. As founder of The Esther Group\, she lives the mandate to dare a future where organizations\, communities and systems can innovate for a better world and humanity.\n\n\nThe event is cosponsored by the Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy\, Rutgers School of Communication and Information\, Douglass Community Engagement\, and the Center for Social Justice Education and LGBTQIA+ Communities.\n\n\nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Designing Value--The Value of Design (Part II)
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\n  \nMovements of industry\, service\, and residents cause substantial change to our cities\, towns\, and suburbs. The visual impact of the changed physical environment often negates the social characteristics that once uniquely identified a neighborhood or place. Urban design is often used to generate and substantiate citizen buy-in – the promise of a better quality of life\, and a higher tax base\, But who is the beneficiary of good urban design? Our panelists will discuss how design impacts community development. They will explain how their role in community development leads\, and will partner-with the development community to reduce the negative effects of change and gentrification. \nIn this panel\, speakers will discuss how design value is generated throughout the design process. They will provide insight on how their critical thinking process yields positive long-term growth. \n\nRose V. Gray\, Senior Vice President of Community and Economic Development at Asociación Puertorriqueños En Marcha (APM)\nTony Nelessen\, Professor\, Edward J Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy\n\n3.0 AICP CREDITS

SUMMARY:Overview of the Fourth Regional Plan
DESCRIPTION:Work on The Fourth Regional Plan began by talking with and listening to people from across the region. What the Regional Plan Association heard was that people loved where they live\, but they had serious concerns. Housing was too expensive. Commutes were long and unreliable. The destruction brought by Hurricane Irene and Superstorm Sandy underscored the region’s vulnerability to climate change and raised questions about how prepared we were for the storms to come. \nOn Tuesday\, November 6 the Bloustein School will present “An Overview of The Fourth Regional Plan” by Tom Wright\, President and CEO of the Regional Plan Association. The event will be held at the Gov. James J. Florio Special Events Forum at the Bloustein School’s Civic Square Building\, 33 Livingston Avenue\, New Brunswick\, NJ. It will begin at 5:00 p.m. \nThe event is free and open to the public but RSVP requested by visiting http://go.rutgers.edu/5s91529 \nAs President and CEO of RPA\, Mr. Wright led the production of The Fourth Regional Plan\, released in November 2017\, proposes 61 recommendations to improve prosperity and quality of life in the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut metropolitan region. Recommendations include reforming public sector institutions\, modernizing our transportation systems\, addressing the challenge of climate change\, and providing affordable and livable communities for all residents in the region. The Fourth Plan is the product of five years of research and public engagement with a wide range of stakeholders. Like the plans released before it\, The Fourth Plan is intended to help elected officials\, policymakers\, and advocates plan for the region’s future. \nPrior to being named RPA’s president in 2015\, Mr. Wright was RPA’s executive director. He helped lead many key RPA initiatives\, including the historic Civic Alliance to Rebuild Downtown New York following the Sept. 11\, 2001\, attacks; the campaign to create a mixed-use district at Manhattan’s Hudson Yards; the protection of the New Jersey Highlands; and a vision plan for the City of Newark. Mr. Wright was also the project manager for A Region at Risk\, RPA’s influential third plan for the metropolitan region published in 1996. \nBefore his current tenure at RPA began in 2001\, Mr. Wright was deputy executive director of the New Jersey Office of State Planning\, where he coordinated production of the New Jersey State Development and Redevelopment Plan. In the early 1990s\, he was RPA’s New Jersey director and coordinator of the award-winning Mayors’ Institute on City Design. \n1.5 AICP CM credits available for this event. A light reception will follow the event.

SUMMARY:Mind the Gap: The Importance of Providing Housing for All New Jerseyans
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW\nPolicy Briefing\nMind the Gap: The Importance of Providing Housing for All New Jerseyans \nOctober 14\, 2016\nThe Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy\n8:30 AM – 11:00 AM \nThe future of Affordable Housing in New Jersey has been tangled up in the courts for years with no clear end in sight. While policymakers\, far removed from the daily struggles of low-income residents\, work their way through this political stalemate many low and moderate-income residents struggle to find decent housing near job opportunities. The state has focused so heavily on COAH that the more important issue of providing housing at a variety of price points and in the right locations is being overlooked. \nNew Jersey’s failure to plan for and provide housing at the right price is encouraging outmigration and affecting the economy. The panel will discuss the ramifications of such shortfalls\, the need to move forward with planning for affordable housing\, and the benefits to neighborhood stability and investment when affordable housing is made available. New Jersey cannot afford to wait for the court’s decision\, we must begin to plan for and provide a variety of housing choices for all New Jerseyans\, including the middle class. \nAgenda\n8:30 – 9:00 – Registration and networking continental breakfast \n9:00 – 9:30 – Update and Overview of Recent Court Rulings – Henry Kent-Smith\, Esq.\, Fox Rothschild \n9:30 – 10:55 – Panel Discussion \n\nJudge Peter Buchsbaum\, Esq.: Retired\,\nModerator\nJames W. Hughes\, Ph.D.: Distinguised Professor and Dean\, The Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy\nChanging demographics and trends in New Jersey\nCaren Franzini: President\, Franzini Consultanting\, LLC\nUsing housing as a strategy to stabilize communities and attract investment\nCharles Latini\, PP\, AICP: Managing Partner\, L&G Planning\, LLC\nThe benefits of planning for a variety of housing types\nArnold Cohen: Senior Policy Coordinator\, Housing and Community Development Network of New Jersey\nThe important role of non-profits in providing housing\n\n10:55 – 11:00 – Closing Remarks – Ann Brady\, PlanSmart NJ \nWe will gladly refund reservations until two weeks before the event. \nWe have applied for: AICP CM Credits\, NJ CLE Credit\, RMC & CPWM Municipal Credits \nPresented with: APA-NJ and NJBA

DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW\nCreating walkable and bikable communities is a successful strategy for maintaining and restoring economic vitality and improving public health in a community. \nThe presence of sidewalks and bike facilities increases property values and commercial rents. Sidewalks and connected\, well-maintained pedestrian networks allow people to safely and conveniently patronize local shops\, businesses\, and restaurants. Improved pedestrian and bicycle safety encourages fewer motorists\, leading to less road congestion\, gas consumption and cleaner air. \nIncreasing physical activity by incorporating walking and bicycling trips into daily activity is part of an active lifestyle that is associated with decreased risks for heart disease\, diabetes\, hypertension\, and colon cancer\, as well as an increased sense of mental well-being.Attend this workshop to learn more about the funding opportunities available to help create and maintain safe\, walkable and bikeable environments in your town that provide opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to travel safely. \nWorkshop topics include: \n\nTips and strategies for applying for federal and state grants that can make your project a reality. In particular\, tactics for applying to the grant solicitations from the NJ Department of Transportation in Safe Routes to School and Transportation Alternatives funding.\nSustainable Jersey actions aimed at implementing pedestrian and bike friendly policies and environmental changes.\n\nPresenters include: \n\nElise Bremer-Nei\, NJ Dpartment of Transportation (NJDOT)\nTrish Sanchez\, NJ Safe Routes To School (NJSRTS) Resource Center\nRenee Haider\, Sustainable Jersey\n\nParking Information: \nThere is a parking garage located at 125 Broadway\, and several other parking lots surrounding the area\, all for different fees.

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:Making Urban Transport Sustainable: Comparison of Germany and the U.S (CM | 1.5)
DESCRIPTION:Isadore Candeub Memorial Lecture in Planning by Ralph Buehler\nProfessor Buehler’s presentation will investigate international trends in daily travel behavior with a focus on Germany and the U.S. Reliance on the automobile for most trips contributes to costly trends like pollution\, oil dependence\, congestion\, and obesity. Germany and the U.S. have among the highest motorization rates in the world\, yet Germans make a four times higher share of trips by foot\, bike\, and public transport and drive for a 25 percent lower share of trips as compared to Americans. \nHe will also examine transport and land-use policies in Germany over the last 40 years that have encouraged more walking\, bicycling\, and public transport use. Using a case study of policy changes in the German city of Freiburg\, the presentation will conclude with policies that are transferable to car-oriented countries around the world. \nA reception will follow the lecture. Please RSVP to Amy Cobb by e-mail to RSVP@policy.rutgers.edu or by phone to 848-932-2733. \nCLICK HERE to download the flyer.
