SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: INTEGRATING URBAN PLANNING AND GREEN BUILDING
This three-part workshop series will explore what sustainability means to urban and
regional planning and how city plans can lay the groundwork for success. Panelists
with direct experience planning for sustainability will discuss the barriers and
opportunities planners face when working toward sustainability, how sustainability
can be defined and measured for planning projects, and what useful sustainability
tools are available. Panelists will share their insights from three regional case studies
illustrating a broad spectrum of sustainable planning issues – including land use,
sustainability metrics, affordable housing, and eco-districts.
