The Michigan Association of Planning, the statewide organization for planning commissioners and professional community planners, is offering excellent introductory workshops this spring, which are especially good for new planning commissioners and zoning board of appeals members. “Planning and Zoning Essentials” will…
- Boost your confidence if you are a newly appointed commissioner or ZBA member.
- Clarify the expectations and limitations of your position, including conflicts of interest.
- Sharpen your decision-making skills.
MAP has updated the program to cover the new Michigan Zoning Enabling and Planning Enabling Acts, as well as:
- roles and responsibilities,
- site plan review,
- comprehensive planning,
- zoning ordinances,
- conditional rezoning,
- variances,
- how to determine practical difficulty, and
- standards for decision making.
