AICP CM Event ##9220735

After many years of stakeholder and working group engagement, Envision Utah will launch the Creating Community Guide: A Guide to Walkable Centers at this year’s Quality Communities Academy.
The guide is a resource for local governments, developers, and the public to create live, work, play, and learn communities in Utah. At the event, Envision Utah will present key topics in the guide, as well as how to use the guide as a resource for your community. We will also be hearing from speakers across Utah in breakout sessions.
This event will be free, but please RSVP to get it on your calendar and to choose which breakout session you would most like to be a part of.
