The Planning Commission
Professional planners discussing planning things with planning people. Individuals who take their jobs seriously, but the planning industry experience a bit lightly. We examine the things that make planners cringe, laugh, and curse their industry. Expert opinions sprinkled with banter, hard realities and a little whiskey. It's a good time! Join us every week for a new conversation.
