It is with great joy that I want to announce that the American Planning Association has approved the Tribal and Indigenous Planning Division of APA. I am not sure if Tulalip Tribal Planner Ben Lubbers has notified you or not. He is the Interim Communications Coordinator. This Division will educate APA’s 40,000 plus members of the unique challenges Indian Country faces. As you know, lawsuits, bad federal policy, and a legacy of mismanagement has left Native Sovereign Nations in a mess. That is the world that you are working in, so you know. Self-Governance, Indian Tribal Gaming is changing how things are getting done. Of course, Tribal Planning gets things done. 
TTPO is a great networking entity within Washington State for Tribal Planners. The Tribal and Indigenous Planning Division will try to replicate that at a national level. I encourage your respective jurisdictions to get an APA membership and assign you to this new Division.                                                  ~ Michael Cardwell, FAICP

WSDOT Listening Session on Performance-based Project Evaluation Model

Learn how performance-based project evaluation helps WSDOT compare future projects 
to the State Legislature for funding projects that best meet statewide transportation goals.

We are looking for feedback on how well the Beta Model aligns with Tribal needs, considers the environmental justice impacts of investments, and promotes state transportation policy goals. Our website has more detailed information on the model as well as the reports from the past two provisos.

If you have any questions or would like to request a separate meeting on the model, please contact Joseph Coppo, WSDOT Multimodal Planning and Data Division, 360.742.9446, Joseph.Coppo@wsdot.wa.gov.
