San José

Best Practices in Community Engagement

Lunchtime Forum

Urban villages—accessible mixed-use neighborhoods that provide both housing and jobs—hold great environmental and placemaking potential for the future of San Jose, but they are being held back by a host of regulatory and market challenges. Join us for a briefing on SPUR’s latest white paper and dive deep to learn how San Jose (and other communities) might better engage their communities in planning issues.
