<DIV><SPAN class=689441113-25042003>The Center is launching its 20th
Anniversary Celebration with a self-assessment and re-asssessment of its
strategic plan. As we develop this plan, we will be reaching out to
the alumni/ae community. Keep an eye out for an
alumni survey from David Geltner requesting your feedback and
input. Of all of our constituent groups, the alumni/ae are our largest,
most committed, and most influential and we need your help.</SPAN></DIV>

increasingly financially strapped jurisdictions; it is the means by which
communities are shaped physically, economically, and socially; and it is often
a regulatory and political target. Each panelist

municipal official, legal expert, developer and retailer-- how to improve and
enhance the process by which these parties reach the decisions that have
such a far-reaching impact on the built environment and life today.
