Pardon My Blindspot
October 9, 2025 11:30 am
2025 APA UT Fall Conference
We all have default planning settings, without even knowing it. What’s yours? Does housing ‘obviously’ mean single-family homes? Does ‘transportation’ automatically mean cars and roads? The 2021 AICP Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct admonishes practicing planners not to blindly resort to “a customary solution” (§A,5.2). One way to avoid blind spots is to “examine our own… unconscious biases” (§A, 1.1). Join us on a (non-judgmental) journey into our hidden and unconscious planning biases and blind spots.
