Awards were presented at the APA-WA Chapter Fall Conference in Yakima
in October, 2000. Here are some highlights of the APA/PAW Annual Awards
Program for Excellence in Planning. A panel of judges was recruited
by Awards Co-chairs Lloyd Skinner (APA), lskinner@adolfson.com,
and Paul Rogerson (PAW), PRogerson@co.grays-harbor.wa.us.
This year’s judges selected twelve winners for the 2000 program.
Winners illustrated the strength and diversity of the planning efforts
that are underway across the state. From industrial redevelopment
