Three law school professors and a practicing planner/lawyer with a total of over 150 years experience in land use law, all of whom have filed briefs in the U.S. Supreme Court, will provide a perceptive and comprehensive view of what the High Court decided last Term and what to exepct from the Court. This panel will not only provide foundational knowledge but translate the decisions into takeaway, practical guidance for the day-to-day work of planners who necessarily must apply the law in their work. The Court's decisions and their application in practice have great impact, for better and for worse, on equity and inclusion. The presentation will describe how to leverage the best of these decisions to advance social, economic, and racial equity, and will provide advice on how to minimize the adverse impacts.

Learning Objectives:

  • Having a working knowledge of the U.S. Supreme Court decisions of the last term affecting planning and apply them to their work.
  • Explain the decisions to others and their impact on planning.
  • Be able to recognize the trends in this Court and know what to expect in the future
