Overview
  • How can a planning department continue to plan with ever contracting budgets?
  • How can planners build and maintain the position of champions of healthy community transformation?
There is a growing trend in city and county planning departments of cutting costs by using their own staff to conduct charrettes. Baltimore County, MD, Nashville, TN, and Fayetteville, AR have all been running charrettes for some time now. In addition to saving money, these agencies are finding that running their own charrette gives them a more streamlined process with better control and less rework. They also report a better relationship with the communities that they serve. In this webinar we will hear the stories of how three planning agencies use different approaches to running and staffing their own charrettes for planning projects. Some of the issues addressed will include:
  • How do you build a charrette ready staff?
  • What are the different forms of charrettes?
  • When should you use a charrette?
  • What consultants are needed to augment your staff?
