Focus Areas: Introduction
Government
Leadership Institute - Educating elected and appointed officials
and staff on growth issues and the importance of regional and holistic
planning. This carries over from the SCTLC program.
Making Regionalism a Reality - Working to make regionalism relevant
to a wide public and bring awareness to the importance of regional
and holistic planning in Southern California. TLUC will continue
SCTLC's pioneering work as an independent and strong voice for
regional solutions to regional problems.
Entrepreneurial Planning - Informing and educating diverse groups
on planning and growth, and applying progressive planning techniques
to specific situations. Using technology and visual approaches
to public engagement as bridges to new constituencies, TLUC will
work to educate and involve people on housing production, land
use, transportation, and environmental issues.
Planning for Public Health - Expanding public awareness of the
linkages between community planning and public health, focusing
on two specific areas, new city design and retrofitting existing
communities to include pedestrian, recreation and accessibility
options (linked to improved public transit) that can contribute
to healthier lifestyles.
