This Week
Wednesday, March 29. Plan Implementation and Development Review
This class covers a mix of municipal powers like PUDs, subdivision ordinances, and site plan review. These tools are routinely used to implement planning recommendations, and they offer opportunities for localities to address concerns regarding land uses, building setbacks, design standards, signage, walkability, parking, circulation, stormwater, and landscaping.

PROGRAM VISION
The vision for Citizen Planner is simply to place the tools of community resilience into the hands of local officials, our citizen planners.
|
|
PURPOSE
Every year across Texas hundreds of locally elected and appointed officials enter public life. They bring with them an ethic of service, but few have the training in the art and science of community planning.
Texas and its 1,200 cities and towns are growing at an unprecedented rate, and our elected citizens must be properly trained to enhance the quality of life, economic opportunity, and sound environmental stewardship.
Planning and land use decisions made today will determine how resilient our critical facilities are for decades to come. The Citizen Planner program was created to address this need for knowledge and awareness by municipal leadership.
