Annual APA-MA Awards

Celebrate great planning work and extraordinary individuals!

Dear Planning Professional,

Its time to celebrate recent planning success stories and those who make a difference in the planning profession. 

The American Planning Association – Massachusetts Chapter (APA-MA) is pleased to announce its 2012 APA-MA Awards Program. The APA-MA awards program is co‑sponsored by the Massachusetts Association of Planning Directors (MAPD). It is time once again to nominate your favorite project, plan, student project, planner, legislator or reporter for the great work they do to advance the planning profession.  Once again I would like to emphasize plan implementation.  Examples of plans well implemented provide inspiration and advance the cause of planning in the Commonwealth more than the best written comprehensive plan gathering dust on so many of our office shelves. We are pleased to invite your participation in our chapter awards program.

For more information, see:  Categories and Criteria │ Submittal Requirements.  Awards submissions due Thursday November 8, 2012, 4pm.

Please take the time and nominate a deserving colleague who has contributed to the communities of the Commonwealth and the profession. The APA-MA awards program is open to any individual or planning project.  Membership in APA is not required.  Nominations must be based on work done within Massachusetts. Take a moment to check out previous winners on our site as well.

I am looking forward to your selections for chapter awards and another fine awards program and luncheon in December.

Sincerely,

Felipe Schwarz, AICP
APA-MA Chapter President
