About this Event
The Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) is Greater Philadelphia's regional planning agency, planning for the nine-county, bi-state region as a whole, while also addressing place-based issues facing various portions of the region, including Center City, Philadelphia. Ariella Maron became DVRPC's Executive Director in January 2023 and will join us for a fireside chat with Patty Elkis, DVRPC's recently retired Deputy Executive Director. Come listen in on a conversation about how DVRPC approaches urban challenges of aging infrastructure, a changing climate, disadvantaged communities, and competition for limited funds, as well as a discussion of new trends in community outreach, addressing safety and access, shifts in the economy, and adapting to a lower carbon future.
This event will be held at the Center for Design Philadelphia.
Complimentary wine and snacks will be served.
