At the end of the course the sketch book will serve as the students ‘textbook’ and will showcase all they learned.

Here in the shadow of Mount Shasta, we love to play outside. Between the mountains, rivers, and lakes we have an abundance of natural places to explore, enjoy, and steward. Preserving our natural recreation areas requires collaboration, planning, and intention. We are gearing up for a new chapter of recreation planning this spring. Our recreation coalition is thinking about everything from trail stewardship and seasonal roadway access to building climate resiliency to establishing more ways to connect communities to each other.
We need your big ideas for the future of recreation in our backyard! Will you join us?

It’s easy to take car parking for granted. For generations, our cities have required nearly every new building — be it a home, an office, a restaurant, or a bowling alley — to provide off-street car storage, and the result is that parking is so ubiquitous that people only notice it when they can’t find it or have to pay to use it. The impacts of all this parking include higher rents, sprawl, and car dependency, feeding into a vicious cycle of more cars, more parking, wider roads, and more sprawl. The good news is that a simple prescription exists to halt and reverse this condition: eliminate parking mandates, manage on-street parking using pricing, and use the revenues to improve the neighborhood and encourage less driving.
Join us for this free webinar with Tony Jordan, President of the Parking Reform Network (parkingreform.org). But be warned, once you see the truth about cheap and abundant parking, you’ll never be the same.
