BPC 2016 Spring Summit

Bay Planning for the Next 33 Years: Risks, Readiness & Rewards

8:00 AM – 4:00 PM
May 6, 2016
Scottish Rite Center
1547 Lakeside Drive
Oakland, CA 94612

Stakeholders, regulatory agencies, and experts from across the San Francisco Bay Area convened at Bay Planning Coalition’s Spring Summit on May 6, 2016 to discuss in-depth about issues in the areas of dredging and beneficial reuse, sustainable waterfronts, and infrastructure. The revamped event featured interactive conversations with expert panels focused directly on furthering the conversation around the risks and rewards tied to the changes coming to the issues our members care about most. Rather than making lengthy presentations, panelists were engaged in conversation with each other and with the audience. Furthermore, thoughts from the audience were gathered by using provided “clickers” to perform electronic polling throughout the program. Lastly, this year’s agenda featured additional opportunities for networking.

Topics of conversation included Measure AA, WRDA 2016, and how rising sea levels will change the landscape of the Bay Area as we know it, among others. Special remarks were given by Congresswoman Barbara Lee with a keynote by Louise Bedsworth, Deputy Director of the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research. This year, we were honored to bestow BPC’s Frank C. Boerger Award to Monique Moyer, past Executive Director of the Port of San Francisco
