Director of Urban Policy

To whom it may concern,

Within the last decade, and for the first time ever, more people live in cities than in rural areas. As a city and regional planner, I have great hope that this trend will spur economic revitalization, social interaction and tolerance, preserve open spaces and increase the efficiencies of our built environments. The creation of an urban policy director is a great step forward. Will this administration look to the city planning profession for long range policy planning?
