CenCal APA presents… Law & Order: A Legislative Update
About:
In the regulatory setting of California, laws are constantly changing, whether in the Legislature, in the Courts, or through creation of agency rules and policies that are especially heinous. The unfortunate but dedicated souls tasked with deciphering and implementing these dynamic requirements belong to an elite force of professionals known as the Practicing Planners of CenCal APA. These are their stories. Join the Central Section on March 4, 2025, for an update on the most important changes from 2024, as we present legislation, case law, and personal anecdotes designed to enhance your understanding of the planning profession and ensure that you’re providing the best possible service and advice to the public, your employers, and your peers.
