2017 Award of Merit Nomination: Economic Planning and Development Award
The Pruneyard Master Use Permit On behalf of APA California and this year’s Awards Jury, it gives us great pleasure to inform you that your
nomination has been selected as the winner of the 2017 Economic Planning and Development Award of Merit for the The Pruneyard Master Use Permit. After much deliberation and review, the Awards Jury found that your nomination was worthy of a merit acknowledgement in this Award category.
We would like to cordially invite you to attend the 2017 State Conference to be held at the Sacramento Convention Center Complex, September 23-26, 2017. The Awards Ceremony will be held on Sunday, September 24, 2017 at 4:45 p.m. and you will be recognized for your accomplishment as an Award Winner. Due to an abbreviated
amount of time available for the awards ceremony this year, Award of Merit winners will not be recognized on stage but will be acknowledged in the program and presentation. There will also be an opportunity to have your
photograph taken with the APA California President, Pete Parkinson.
We also encourage you to work with your local Section to submit your nomination to National APA for consideration for a 2018 National Planning Award. A nominated plan, project, effort or individual does not have to
win a Chapter Award of Excellence to be eligible for a National Planning Award. The nomination period will be open later this month. You can obtain information from the APA website at www.planning.org/awards. Please let us know how we can support you with this process.
While the winners will be announced at the Awards Ceremony at the conference, you are encouraged to share your good news with your friends and colleagues, in your newsletters, and in local newspapers. If you are interested in having your project featured in a future edition of the CalPlanner newsletter, please contact Marc
Yeber, APA California Vice President for Public Information at myplanning@live.com.
