Faced with a pandemic-driven economic contraction, city and local leaders are tasked with answering a big question: What’s next?
The stakes for cities couldn’t be higher. Recovery won’t be uniform — some communities will bounce back more quickly than others, and pockets of growth will exist alongside sustained economic contraction.
Experts from Better Cities Project and Pacific Legal Foundation will present practical recommendations for getting America’s cities back on track — and better than ever.
For cities to thrive, leaders need the tools and knowledge to make informed, innovative decisions. The policies suggested during this program can be a foundation, not just for getting back to normal, but for communities to flourish for years.
What We'll Cover
No dry white papers or solutions that would take years to implement — this program is all about policies cities can enact quickly for maximum impact. Legal, economic, and policy experts will present solutions in:
Housing and Zoning
Rebounding from the COVID-19 crisis requires great private investments alongside public efforts to restore economic vitality.
Permitting and Licensing
A regulatory environment friendly to business creation and job growth will be central to local economic recovery for most cities.
Transparent, Open Government
Transparency in government is important, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy.
Better Cities Project helps people in America’s largest cities live free, happy lives. We uncover what works, promote solutions, and forge partnerships that turn ideas into results.
