Exploring President Biden’s Urban Agenda
The past four years have a whirlwind of activity regarding urban planning policies — from budgets that favor the automobile over public transit to proposals to cut public housing programs to major projects being stalled — that will have profound ramifications for cities across the United States. It’s clear that a Biden Administration will approach urban policy and planning with a different lens.

Join the leaders of SPUR, the Metropolitan Planning Council of Chicago, and Regional Plan Association of the New York City-New Jersey-Connecticut region as they delve into what the next federal administration may mean for regional planning, research, and policy change.
