The Sustainable Sites Initiative 11 years, 1 month agoCharles – you obviously have not read SITES closely or either don’t understand it. It is a performance base metric – the opposite of prescriptive design. Also, I challenge you to certify a project. In my work, I have found that those who believe they have been “doing it for 40 years” have great difficulty meeting the minimum criteria.

The Sustainable Sites Initiative 11 years, 1 month agoInteresting. Two entities fighting over who will make money selling another guide to prescriptive design. There is nothing new in the SITES project except adding points up to get to some magical level so you can pin a gold star on your wall.

The Sustainable Sites Initiative 11 years, 1 month agoHi Heather – definitely disappointing to see. Just saw the announcements; have read both press statements that describe very different points of view. What do you think the key disagreement is and what will take to resolve?

Planning Profession and Landscape Architecture 13 years, 2 months agoJMW,

Planning Profession and Landscape Architecture 13 years, 3 months agoHello!
Just wanted to see how many planners-turned-LAs there are. I know there is a significant amount of shared history and values, but the technical skill set of LAs set them apart. I’m considering doing the switch myself, and plan on slowly picking up the skills part-time. Are there many who have done this? Any advice?
