After a short absence and a change of lead sponsor (from ALI-CLE, to the American Bar Association's Section of State and Local Government Law), the Land Use Institute is back on.
Download the print brochure here, or visit the LUI web site for more. It will be held February 1-2, 2017, in Miami, Florida, at the Brickell City Centre's Akerman Conference Center, in conjunction with the ABA's Midyear Meeting. One of the best aspects of this program is the registration fee, a mere $300, $250 if you are a judge, an academic, young lawyer, or government attorney (perhaps the best deal in CLE). Register on line here. For those who cannot attend in-person, the LUI will be live-streamed. Register here.
Planning Chairs Frank Schnidman and Dean Patrica Salkin have assembled a very good faculty and program. Topics include: "Nuts and Bolts of Land Use Practice: Vested Rights and Regulatory Takings: Where Are We Now?," "Public-Private Partnerships," "Climate Change and Resilient Development," "Client Representation: Developer, Government and Citizen Groups," "Regulating Navigable Airspace: The Drones Are Here," "Housing Supply and Affordability: Planning Alternatives and Legal Consequences," and "Community Benefits Agreements, Environmental Justice and Access to Housing." The Annual Richard Babcock Keynote Address will be by Deborah Rosenthal, "From the Ground Up: Unshared Assumptions in Law and Planning." Complete agenda here.
We'll be speaking on the Vested Rights panel, along with Professor Steven Eagle, Amy Boulris, and Howard Roston.
