PAW NEEDS VOLUNTEER LAND USE PLANNERS
The Planning Association of Washington (PAW) is seeking volunteer land use planners and land use attorneys to help us teach the Planning Short Course to citizens and elected officials. If you would like to help CTED with teaching about comprehensive land use planning under the GMA, the role of the planning Commisioners and legal issues for this training in a community near you, please let us know. We have much of the training information already packaged, so we primarily need speakers. Next quarter we have Planning Short Courses planned next quarter for the cities of Port Townsend, Poulsbo, Duvall, and Kenmore.
If you would like to help us out, please submit your contact information (name, phone, email, where you work, your area of interest, etc.) to pawoff@aol.com and we will contact you when the opportunity arises. On behalf of the PAW, thank you for your assistance.
