Transportation-Land Use: Outreach to Planning Commissioners

This project was undertaken by a team of graduate students and faculty at the School of Urban Studies and Planning at Portland State University. The project involved outreach activities to planning commissioners in the State of Oregon regarding policies and programs to integrate land use and transportation planning. Students developed written materials and a powerpoint presentation for use at outreach workshops with local planning commissioners. The project involved teams at both Portland State University (PSU) and University of Oregon (UO). Each team worked independently, but coordinated their efforts. The project spanned winter and spring quarters, January through June 2003.
