<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Navigating the New Normal <br /> <br />A ULI Minnesota (ULI MN) public official <br />education workshop <br /> <br /> <br />Realizing great development and redevelopment opportunities for your community is difficult <br />even in the best of times. The ‘Great Recession’ has made this job especially daunting for <br />everyone – including communities that were previously well-positioned in the marketplace. <br />Many believe this is not a short-lived situation, but represents a ‘new normal’ for the <br />marketplace, i.e. the metrics that will govern the economics of development and redevelopment <br />in the foreseeable future will be fundamentally different than the past. <br /> <br />Navigating the New Normal is a ULI MN workshop that offers a practical approach to the new <br />challenges of development and redevelopment. It focuses on your city –or a cluster of cities – in <br />a way that strengthens your understanding of today’s realities of development and <br />redevelopment. Navigating the New Normal is designed to foster a dialogue about the <br />opportunities and challenges inherent in a new economy based upon shifts in the market and <br />changing demographics. <br /> <br />Navigating the New Normal Objectives <br /> <br />ULI MN volunteers will partner with you to lead an interactive two hour workshop geared <br />towards your City Council, Planning Commission, EDA/HRA members, and staff. The ULI MN <br />team will comprise a cross section of professionals representing disciplines such as design, <br />finance, development, planning and marketing. The workshop will be held at a locale and time of <br />your choosing. The workshop is perfect for a pre-Council or Planning Commission meeting work <br />session. <br /> <br />City clusters are encouraged but not required! A workshop involving two or three cities with <br />similar interests may provide a great venue for presentation and dialogue. <br /> <br /> <br />
