Community Development Is Subject of Panel at Legislative Conference
A March 13 General Session focusing on the connection between public transit investment and community development is on the schedule of this year’s APTA Legislative Conference, March 12-14 at the JW Marriott Hotel in Washington, DC.
“Public Transportation: A Catalyst to Local Economic Development” will bring together regional leaders to discuss how strategic investments in BRT, light rail and heavy rail have spurred significant residential and commercial development along and in proximity to these transit projects.
The moderator is APTA Immediate Past Chair Valarie J. McCall, member of the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority Board of Trustees, and the panelists are Robin-Eve Jasper, president, NoMa Business Improvement District, Washington, DC; Tom Murphy, former mayor of Pittsburgh and senior resident fellow, Urban Land Institute; and Scott Rowe, planning coordinator, Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, Upper Marlboro, MD.
Also on March 13, the Capitol Steps will return to the luncheon session to present their musical satirical view of the political scene.
