How Municipalities Can Avoid the 20 Most Common Place-Making Mistakes

Speakers: Chad Emerson, Director of Development, City of Montgomery, AL; Eliza Harris, Urban Planner, Canin & Associates; Amanda Thompson, Planning Director, City of Decatur, GA. Moderator: Nathan Norris, CEO, Downtown Development Authority, Lafayette, LA

In this “get real” session, you learn about the 20 most common placemaking mistakes that municipalities make, as well as the 10 most effective placemaking tools you should be using. The motivation for this session stems from the fact that many municipalities continue to make the same mistakes over and over — all the while hoping for a better result. Oftentimes, their major problem isn’t the execution of a specific tactic or tool, but the incorrect diagnosis of their challenges from the outset. This session arms you with the techniques and strategies you need to effectively advocate for meaningful improvements to your community.

Smart Growth Toolbox Training Session

Speakers: Maren Outwater, Senior Director, Resource Systems Group; Fred Bowers, Community Planner, Federal Highway Administration; Gordon Garry, Director of Research and Analysis, Sacramento Area Council of Governments; Jo Allen Gause, Senior Program Officer, National Academy of Science; Robert Cervero, Professor of City and Regional Planning, University of California Berkeley; Jeremy Raw, Community Planner, Federal Highway Administration; Guy Rousseau, Modeling Manager, Atlanta Regional Commission; Colin Smith, Senior Consultant, Resource Systems Group. Moderator: John Thomas, Director of Community Assistance and Research, Office of Sustainable Communities, U.S. EPA

(3.5 hour session) The impact of various smart growth strategies on the transportation system and the dynamics of how these strategies may influence other strategies are not easily understood. Current tools to address this need are either quite detailed and complex (parcel-level, integrated land use and travel models) or quite simple (application of elasticities for specific strategies). The Smart Growth Area Planning (SmartGAP) is a strategic planning tool that simulates individual travel behavior in response to smart growth strategies at a regional scale. The session is conducted in two parts: an overview of scenario planning and presentations on smart growth area planning tools and resources, and three breakout groups to discuss case studies for Atlanta, Maryland and Olympia. Learn how to develop the data needed by the tools, how to develop smart growth strategies for testing, and how to interpret the results for planning purposes.

Psychoanalysis and Neuroscience Symposium: Trauma, Dream and Psychic Change in Psychoanalyses

Speakers: Co-chairs: Charles P. Fisher, M.D. (San Francisco) Richard J. Kessler, D.O. (Long Island City, NY) Presenters: Tamara Fischmann, Ph.D. (Frankfurt, Germany) Marianne Leuzinger-Bohleber, Ph.D. (Frankfurt, Germany)

To psychoanalysts as well as neuroscientists the neurological base of psychic functioning, particularly concerning the topic of trauma and dreaming is of special interest. In the first part of this paper neurobiological changes occurring in the course of two years of psychoanalytic psychotherapy of a severely traumatized, chronic depressed patient are traced by a recognition experiment of memories of dreams related to an underlying conflict and depicted in fMRI. In the second part a dream series of the same patient elicited partially in psychoanalytic treatment and partially in a sleep laboratory are traced for changes in a clinical and experimental psychoanalytic manner. The results of both fields of research are discussed.

Rural Sustainability: Design and Strategic Considerations

Speakers: Alexandria Murnan, Graduate Student, University North Carolina, Chapel Hill; Hannah Twaddell, President, Hannah Twaddell Associates, LLC. Moderator: Chris Beck, Senior Projects Advisor, U.S. Department of Agriculture

(2 hour session) Massive outmigration and major industry shifts have left many small towns across the country with challenging impacts of changes in population and local economies. Others are feeling the pressure of new development dynamics. Innovative local leaders are developing strategies creating economically dynamic places where people want to live. How will placemaking, smart growth, regional planning and innovative economic development contribute to revitalizing small towns? Based on current case study research conducted by the panelists, the details of the strategies as well as the designs that form the basis of rural smart growth will be presented and discussed. Examples of successful design and project management approaches are presented. The diversity in the types of rural communities makes “rural” strategies difficult to pin down. The panelists present portfolio-style examples of rural smart growth in a variety of settings, and will lead a discussion of key elements of rural sustainability.
