What are the economic impacts of the suburban development pattern?
A Live Presentation by Joe Minicozzi, AICP
Urban3, Principal
March 31st, 12 p.m. CDT
It can be hard to know which parts of your community are financially productive…and which are a drain. (The answers are often surprising.) And even if you do know, how can you share that information with people who aren’t Level 20 Spreadsheet Wizards?
In this free webinar, Joe Minicozzi of Urban 3 will demonstrate how you can use local data and simple math to understand—and share—the impact of development on your town or city’s economic health. Minicozzi will present case studies that illustrate how cities and regions can better forecast fiscally sustainable development patterns, while also protecting sensitive natural lands and waters.
Joe Minicozzi is the founder and principal of Urban3, a real estate economics firm that maps the financial health of built environments to inspire communities of all sizes to think differently about development, land use, and public policy. He is a pioneer in Geoaccounting, an approach to planning and city design that helps communities:
Do the math for long term economic sustainability
Visualize impact of development on local budgets
Retool public policy for future financial resilience
Identify the most productive areas and properties
Improve annual budget planning
He is one of the most sought-after speakers in American urbanism. Now he's sharing his core presentation in this special event.
P.S. Are you a local government official, city staff, a member of your city’s planning or transportation committees, or a member of a local advocacy organization? We encourage you to invite members of your team to this webinar, then work together to take collective action toward building a safer, stronger, more financially resilient community.
