Overcoming Barriers to Sustainably Redevelop Historic Communities: Focus on Main Street

Speakers: Nora Johnson, Policy Fellow, Office of Sustainable Communities, U.S. EPA; Yolanda Bouchee, Green Historic Preservation Specialist, U.S. EPA, Region 5; Joi Ross, Owner/CEO, APEX Direct, Inc.; Matthew Walsh. Assistant for Special Projects, City of Concord, NH

Green building practices do not need to be limited to new construction: historic properties can be an important way to incorporate green building into existing building stock and play an important role in downtown revitalization. This panel describes US EPA's efforts to assist in green historic preservation nationwide, focusing on EPA's recent Concord, NH, technical assistance project to help Concord identify tools to sustainably redevelop the upper stories of their historic properties downtown. The panel discusses lessons learned and provide tools for both developers and communities. In addition, the assessment tool resulting from the project is presented, designed to help determine how successful a community has been in marrying green building practices, historic preservation, and smart growth principles.

Experience a participatory neighborhood planning process through the eyes of a stakeholder; hear first-hand how one New Jersey community is revitalizing based upon its superb transit access, location, artistic residents and industrial heritage; and learn about tools like Success Measures and PolicyMap that are available to support and assess the impact of these smart-growth activities. The session focuses on a participatory framework towards neighborhood revitalization developed and refined by the Wells Fargo Regional Foundation, and currently subscribed to in more than 40 neighborhoods in eastern Pennsylvania, Delaware and New Jersey.

Infrastructure Finance; Innovative Tools for Challenging Times

Speakers: Matthew Lesh, Transportation Program Specialist, U.S. Department of Transportation; John Williams, Chairman and CEO, Impact Infrastructure, LLC. Moderator: Lee Sobel, Real Estate Development and Finance Analyst, Office of Sustainable Communities, U.S. EPA.

This session provides an overview of the types of infrastructure needs typically associated with infill and transit-oriented development, the challenges involved in paying for this infrastructure, key infrastructure finance terms and tools, and the process of formulating a successful infrastructure funding and financing strategy. Infrastructure and community facilities often need to be in place before new private development can occur – either because additional infrastructure is required to support new uses or, in a place with a weak real estate market, to make a location more attractive for developers, new residents and employers. Although communities often struggle to pay for such infrastructure, the long-term economic benefits are too great to pass up. Listen and learn about how communities are thinking outside the box when it comes to new infrastructure finance methods.

Plenary Address: Second Century for Psychoanalysis and for APsaA — Their Fates May Differ

Speakers: Warren Procci

Psychoanalysis has entered its second century. The current state of the field is mixed, and somewhat bifurcated. Psychoanalysis as a discipline, as a theoretical corpus, and as an area for academic inquiry is holding its own if not necessarily thriving. Contrarily, psychoanalysis as represented in its institutes, societies, centers, and especially within APsaA, our major professional organization, is in a serious decline. The complex reasons for these quite different situations are examined. An inability of the major competing components of our organization to work towards meaningful compromise is, in the speaker’s view, a major factor. Some thoughts concerning what must be done, and quickly, are offered.

Public-Private Partnership to Finance and Promote Equitable TOD

Speakers: Brian Prater, Managing Director, Western Region, Low Income Investment Fund; Doug Johnson, Senior Transportation Planner, Metropolitan Transportation Commission; Lindy Hahn, Global Sustainable Finance, Morgan Stanley

Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) is an important component of sustainable development. Without proactive public policy and innovative financing mechanisms, the development of new public transportation infrastructures can have a negative effect upon low-income households, by driving up land and real estate values. One of the primary financing mechanisms for the creation or preservation of affordable housing near transit has been acquisition loan funds for TOD. These pioneering funds allow borrowers to hold land for five or more years, layer capital to lower interest rates from standard acquisition loans, and create an environment in which both borrowers and the lenders take new or non traditional risk in order to ensure that low-income households can benefit from combined access to reliable public transportation and affordable housing. This session highlights such a fund, The Bay Area Transit Oriented Affordable Housing Fund, and focuses on collaboration and the elements (program, policy and innovative financing tools) that need to exist to advance equitable TOD.

Essential Components of the 21st Century Community: Housing for the "Missing Middle"

Speakers: Lina Velasco, Senior Planner, City of Richmond, CA; Lisa Wise, Principal, Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. Moderator: Stefan Pellegrini, Principal, Opticos Design, Inc.

This session examines and debates the potential for medium-density housing as an essential future component of our livable communities. Several indicators have increased recent interest in higher-density housing, including changing demographics, decreasing housing affordability, and increasing efforts to conserve energy through more compact development patterns. At the same time, higher-density housing has been challenged by high development and entitlement costs, limited market share, and incessant NIMBYism. Well-designed, medium-density housing, however, suggests that there is a high potential for cost effective, appropriately-scaled development patterns that will allow today's low density communities to evolve and transition in response to future challenges.
