Advances in GIS for Smart Growth — Horizontal and Vertical

Speakers: Jon Harrison, Senior Consultant for Local Government Solutions, ESRI; Councilmember, City of Redlands, CA; Matthew Baker, Product Engineer, ESRI; Eric Wittner, 3D GIS Specialist, ESRI

Whether it’s appealing, vibrant infill and retail revitalization, complete streets and public spaces, traffic calming, or a more extensive network of safe bike routes and pedestrian trails – using GIS in 2D and 3D can make a difference. Like the broader toolbox of smart-growth concepts and strategies, the techniques and capabilities of GIS are advancing and emerging. GIS can intertwine complex details of demographic, geographic and urban design factors that communities can use to easily analyze and visualize the implications of alternative development scenarios. With GIS we can 'see' what and how possible solutions work.

Back to Planning School: What You Need to Know for Successful and Collaborative School Siting

Speakers: Fred Yeager, Assistant Director, California Department of Education, School Facilities Planning Division; Jeff Vincent, PhD, Deputy Director, Center for Cities and Schools, University of California, Berkeley; Cynthia Bryant, Senior Vice President, Government Affairs, California Charter Schools Association; Chris Grimes, Director of Facilities Development, Roseville Joint Union High School District

Strategically locating new schools and revitalizing existing schools with consideration of other public services is an important part of achieving regional environmental goals, increasing service levels to students and the community, and leveraging funding opportunities. Yet, the relationship between school districts, land developers, and cities or counties can be tense, particularly where there is little or no coordination during planning processes. This workshop highlights the guiding principles and standards for locating schools and how these standards can support many of the common goals shared by school districts and local governments.
