World Town Planning Day Success


Thank you to all that participated in the World Town Planning Day Event in the City of North College Hill at the Clovernook Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired! We had great presentations by professionals from Cincinnati City Planning, YARD & Company, and the Clovernook Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired. Students and professors from Miami University and the University of Cincinnati's School of Planning explored universal design and transportation ideas for people with various disabilities. APA Cincinnati brought out professional planners from various jurisdictions in Ohio. Residents, council members, city administration and teachers from the North College Hill School District came out to participate in this great event and we hope to see you all in the spring for implementation of these great projects.

If you have a idea for World Town Planning Day 2019, we want to hear from you email your idea here.
