There are many interesting sessions this year @APA_Planning #NPC21. Equity is a big theme. Sometimes low-tech such as telephone town halls may promote the most public involvement. Hi-tech such as AI can also promote more equitable code enforcement.

There is an increase in Covid cases UNT, with 41 in total this week, up from 19 last week. 28 with "direct campus impact," and 25 of those are students. Any more information? healthalerts.unt.edu/return/… @ntdaily

Animal Services has opened an emergency pet food pantry to help distribute pet food to those in need in our community. Please call (940) 349-7594 to schedule a pickup. Animal Services’ goal is to keep as many pets with their families as possible during this difficult time. ❤️

The first satellite designed to continuously monitor the planet for methane leaks made a startling discovery last year: A little known gas-well accident at an Ohio fracking site was in fact one of the largest methane leaks ever recorded in the U.S. nyti.ms/2YVQgL6

I enjoyed the urban planning sessions at #APATX19 last week. The corridor session was my favorite by @livableplans and @JasonClaunch. Also the future of transportation was fascinating with Jetsons travel on the horizon.

Public spaces are so important to cities, and they come in many forms. I have seen this myself with the @DentonMarket and its function as a weekly public space for gathering, socializing, and the exchange of ideas in Denton. #dentontx #dentoning #publicspace #farmersmarket

10 years ago today, people said we were crazy to pedestrianize Broadway. Today, it would be crazy to bring the cars back. Times Square wasn’t just a public space project, it was the start of a global revolution in how cities think about their streets.
