September 11th- Land Use: BIAS, AND CONFLICTS, AND PRE-JUDGMENT, OH MY!

Speakers: David Owens, Dwight Merriam & Daniel Mandelker

Come on, just because the commissioner’s brother-in-law is the applicant for a shopping center shouldn’t be a problem, should it?  And the fact that another commissioner is a Deacon in the church nest door is no concern?  Or that the elected chair of the commission ran on a platform of saving the small town local merchants from those evil big boxes?  Prof. Owens has something to say about all this and more!

Speakers: David Owens, Dwight Merriam & Daniel Mandelker
