The Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG), in conjunction with the Colorado Department of Local Affairs and the Colorado Chapter of the American Planning Association, is offering an exclusive workshop for local government planning commissioners. This day-long workshop is committed to providing both newly appointed and seasoned planning commissioners with information to help them in the essential job they perform in their communities. Following a plenary session on new federal sustainability initiatives, workshop attendees have the opportunity to choose between two diverse tracks: (1) Planning Commissioner Training - providing information on the roles, responsibilities and fundamentals of being a planning commissioner, and (2) Special Topics - including one session on regional planning and a second session introducing and highlighting the relationship between public health and planning. See you there!
