Reflections on the Western Planner/Tribal Planning Conference at Ft. Hall, Idaho

Dan Pava, FAICP, shares why the 2018 Tribal Planning and Western Planner Conference was not a typical planning conference. The conference offered more than 25 panels and presentations over two days, typically four to five concurrently. While some of the topics were a bit different from those we encounter, the emphasis was on using planning to solve difficult issues.
