Mayor @KeishaBottoms drew inspiration from theologian Howard Thurman for her remarks today at #SEEDatlanta “Community cannot for long feed on itself; it can only flourish with the coming of others from beyond, their unknown and undiscovered brothers.”
In a great meeting at #ulifall with Alan Razak of @AthenianRazak about teaching public-private partnerships. We are very proud to count him as a guest expert at the Rose Center. https://t.co/bNEGz1wXYa
Learning about PACE (Property-assessed clean energy) programs. 35 states have passed enabling legislation. The market was $2.3B last year. $1B was Connecticut’s CPACE, $1B was California’s residential PACE. The other $300M was divided among the other 32 states. #ulifall
Excited to be kicking off #uliFall with the City and Real Estate Sustainability Summit. Folks are here representing 7 U.S. cities and 11 large real estate owners and developers. Great conversation.
reminder: tomorrow is the deadline to apply for a Rose Center Public Officials Scholarship to the ULI Fall Meeting. (And the application is really short and simple!) https://t.co/ay78Cf4NG3
We love the idea of this column, and hope to see the work of some Rose Fellows featured here in the near future!
