Technical Advisory Panels
The Urban Land Institute (ULI) North Texas District Council is accepting applications from local government and community-based non-profit groups who are in need of assistance on land use planning and development projects. Members of ULI’s North Texas District Council can provide expert advice in the following areas: Land Use Design and Planning; Market Feasibility Analysis; Financial Analysis and Structuring; Structuring Private/Public Partnerships; Adaptive Reuse of Buildings; Development Process; Permitting; and Community Relations.
Once a project has been designated as a TAP project, ULI’s North Texas District Council will assemble a group of volunteers with expertise in areas that are required to focus on the sponsor’s particular problem or issues. The sponsoring organization will be responsible for gathering the background information that is necessary to understand the project, and will present it to the group. The sponsoring organization will also provide staff support for the meeting, and for any follow-up report or presentation. TAP volunteers will expect to spend a full day developing an understanding of the problem, developing recommendations, and debriefing the sponsoring organization.
To obtain an application, or for more information on TAPs, contact Edward Barry at 972-721-2427 or at ebarry@ci.irving.tx.us.
