SUMMARY:Subdivision Regulations in the 21st Century (Pelham)
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nSubdivision regulations are a critical tool for land development regulation. They can address the demands of growing communities or the redevelopment of infill sites. In this lecture\, learn the legal basis and parameters for subdivision controls. Explore standards for subdivision control and typical subdivision processes. The presenter will discuss new subdivisions\, re-subdivision\, plat vacation\, and lot-line adjustments. A major focus is on how subdivision controls can be used alone — e.g. in rural communities that lack zoning\, how they fit into a comprehensive regulatory system\, and how they relate to zoning or form-based codes. \nCM Credits\n1.0 CM credits are available for this event. \nRegistration / More Information\nPlease let us know if you can attend this session so we can prepare an appropriate number of conference visuals and reference materials. Reply by email to kgoddard@shelbyal.com or by phone at 205.620.6612. \nAdditional resources when available can be found at ALAPA’s audio conference website. \n

SUMMARY:Administering Zoning Codes Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nCongratulations! Your community has adopted a new zoning code. Now you have to figure out how to administer it. In this program\, veteran planning managers will discuss common implementation challenges that accompany major zoning reform efforts. How do you provide enough flexibility to accommodate creative development without undermining the new code’s vision and intent? Hear about implementing form-based codes\, hybrids\, and other contemporary zoning tools aimed at fixing the ills of conventional Euclidean zoning. Explore the vital role of zoning in local plan implementation and gain practical insight into administrative issues. \nSpeakers\nLuciana L.

SUMMARY:National Disaster Recovery Framework and Planning for Post-Disaster Recovery
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nEveryone plays a role in disaster recovery\, both before and after an event. The National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF) is a guide that defines how the whole community will work together following a disaster to best meet the recovery needs of individuals and families\, communities and states.  \nHurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee showcased the challenges a community may face in the aftermath of an event. In this session\, we will discuss best practices and lessons learned from the post-disaster recovery plans completed in communities in Pennsylvania. Post-disaster recovery planning forms the foundation for allocating resources and provides the benchmark for progress. It promotes post-disaster organizations to manage recovery in a deliberate and transparent process.  \nThis session will introduce community planners to the concepts and core principles of the NDRF; equip planners and others involved in post-disaster recovery with the tools and techniques needed to design and execute a post-disaster planning process; and will educate planners on how to build community capacity through the post-disaster planning process. Planners will leave this session armed with a number of community recovery and planning resources. They will learn the critical steps needed to guide communities to successful recovery. They will learn how to engage local citizens in the recovery process\, and teach community members how to be engaged\, successful\, local champions who will take ownership of their local recovery planning process. \nSpeakers\n\nSheaBrianna Christilaw\nMichelle Harel\n\nCM Credits\n1.5 credits are available for this event. \nRegistration / More Information\nRegistration is not required\, but please RSVP to south@alabamaplanning.org if you plan on attending. \nTo register to watch the webinar at another location\, visit https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/260898874

SUMMARY:Holiday Decorations\, Public Property\, and the Law
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nThe holiday season is coming soon and with it some tough decisions for local and state governments: Does the usual holiday display at city hall violate the U.S. Constitution? How should you evaluate the request from a new religious group to sponsor a public display? Do local regulations impact private holiday displays\, and could they run afoul of the constitution too? Our experts will help you navigate the complex court decisions on these questions and create a fair and constitutional municipal strategy for the annual holiday wars. \nPanelists\nJohn M.

SUMMARY:Smart Growth in Small Towns and Rural Areas
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nRural areas and small towns face many issues — such as declining downtowns\, incompatible development in historic areas\, and loss of natural areas and open space — that can be addressed effectively by smart growth and sustainable planning techniques. However\, smart growth and sustainability tools are often less adaptable to those types of communities. This program will look at several rural areas and small towns that have adapted those tools to create plans and codes that facilitate smart growth. It will also describe resources that are available to assist communities. \nCM Credits\n1.5 CM credits are available for this event. \nRegistration / More Information\nPlease let us know if you can attend this session so we can prepare an appropriate number of conference visuals and reference materials.

SUMMARY:Regulation of Billboards in the Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nThis live webinar will discuss the evolution of billboard regulation from Lady Bird Johnson’s Highway Beautification Act through the current controversy concerning the nationwide proliferation of high intensity Commercial Electric Variable Message Signs better known as digital billboards (DBB) from rural Pennsylvania where there are three digital billboards in a one mile stretch of country road\, to Chicago which approved 30 DBB for $15\,000\,000 in public funding\, to Denver where DBB are completely outlawed\, to the City of Los Angeles where a new sky scraper hotel has been approved with digital wall advertising capability. It will treat DBB as the modernization of an historic nonconforming use in the context of fundamental land use concepts.  \nWe will view the issues evenly through the economic lens of the billboard companies and the aesthetic/safety lens of the regulators and conservationists. We will address the apparent paradox of local municipalities as regulators of advertising\, as lessors of public property used for advertising and as advertisers themselves; and analyze enforcement of sign ordinances and the abatement of illegal signs. The webinar will conclude with covering the recent significant court decisions that have set precedents for the legal limits of DDB\, and focus on the typical legal means by which DDB are approved. \nCM Credits\n1.5 CM credits are available for this event. Approved for Law credits. \nRegistration / More Information\nPlease let us know if you can attend this session so we can prepare an appropriate number of conference visuals and reference materials.

SUMMARY:Regional Transportation Planning on the California/Baja California Border
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nThis webinar\, which is being co-sponsored by the APA Regional and Intergovernmental Planning Division and Latinos and Planning Division\, is one in a series that will provide training to AICP members on best practices in cross-border regional planning along the U.S. / Mexico border. This first webinar will focus on cross-border regional transportation planning along the California / Baja California border. Speakers will include senior staff members from the following state and regional planning agencies: San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG); Imperial County Transportation Commission (ICTC); Secretaria de Infraestructura y Desarrollo Urbano del Estado (SIDUE)- Baja California’s state infrastructure and transportation agency; Instituto Metropolitana de Planeación de (IMPLAN) -regional / municipal planning agency for Tijuana; and Instituto Municipal de Investigación y Planeación Urbana de Mexicali (IMIP) – regional / municipal planning agency for Mexicali.  \nSpecific topics to be covered include:  \n\nRoles of and relationships among regional\, state\, and federal transportation planning agencies on the U.S. side of border;\nRoles of and relationships among regional\, state\, and federal transportation planning agencies on Mexican side of border;\nThe overall framework and structure for cross-border planning in San Diego / Tijuana region and Imperial County / Mexicali region;\nOverview of SANDAG Borders Committee and other collaboration mechanisms for interregional planning and project development in San Diego / Tijuana cross-border region (e.g.\, binational stakeholder group meetings\, annual roundtables\, etc.)\nOverview of collaboration mechanisms for interregional planning and project development in Imperial County / Mexicali cross-border region;\nSpecific examples of past and current transportation plans and projects in San Diego / Tijuana region and Imperial County / Mexicali region. \n\nAICP members will learn about the challenging transportation issues facing these cross-border regions (for example\, the San Ysidro / Tijuana port of entry is the busiest land border crossing in the world) and how they are being successfully addressed through unique public agency collaboration mechanisms. They will also learn about efforts to integrate these transportation planning activities into broader comprehensive planning efforts\, such as the “Otay Mesa / Mesa de Otay Cross-border Strategic Planning Program” that was conducted jointly by SANDAG and IMPLAN Tijuana\, which included cross-border public participation activities and led to a jointly adopted strategic plan that addressed environmental\, economic\, and social issues for a rapidly growing portion of the cross-border region. Speakers will share “lessons learned” and emerging issues that are now being addressed through these collaborative planning efforts. \nCM Credits\n1.5 CM credits are available for this event.  \nRegistration / More Information\nPlease let us know if you can attend this session.
