Urban Planning
Committee
Share your voice
Our Urban Planning Committee is a forum for open discussion on pre-determined planning topics. We meet every second month and include a mix of regular and rotational (topic-specific) members. Our planning team facilitates these discussions, providing a supportive and respectful platform for members to share their diverse perspectives and expertise.
By exploring diverse perspectives, we gain a deeper understanding of community needs and the practical challenges of implementing planning strategies. This knowledge empowers us to effectively support community association planning committees as they navigate similar discussions.
