@b_cuse_ We spent like three months trying to make utilization rate targets that take PTO, PD, business dev into account lol. Idk we view it as one of many metrics that can point to success or not but I’m curious how important they are at other firms

very cool that the consulting industry penalizes you for learning and growing on company time in a manner that doesn’t generate direct profit lol

if I had known before I registered for the Nebraska Planning Conference that training hours count AGAINST your utilization rate, I definitely wouldn’t have signed up for the damn conference

@CarFreeMidwest Another faction is pro-roundabout but “just not here.” It’s flashbacks to transit oriented development when neighbors liked the ideas of pedestrian scale apartments and ADUs, just not in Dundee. Giving “not in my backyard.”

@SchmeghanRusso 100% - those t-bone accidents are so much more deadly for drivers and pedestrians. Plus when people run red lights they are driving SO fast.

I’m pro roundabout, especially given the new development that wil occur at UNMC. This section of Farnam is residential, and infrastructure should prioritize pedestrians. Roundabouts slow traffic compared to four way lights, full stop.

@craigmoody So many good answers but I’ll stay in the neighborhood at 37th and Center - great housing for the VA and upcoming business district on Center right across from the Field Club. #WelcomeNeighbors

Appreciated the opportunity to discuss with @Jean_Stothert the need for age-friendly housing options in Omaha. There are so many amazing things happening in Omaha and we @AARPNE are happy to promote our #LivableCommunities agenda as a part of that work for our city.

Fun interview at @PlanningOmaha's open house last night. Omaha needs abundant housing. 🏘️ "Thomas said she'd like to see the city allow for more townhouses, duplexes, and multi-family homes, as opposed to single-family units. She wants to see these ideas put into action."

The City of Omaha is giving residents a chance to speak their minds on how it should move forward on a proposed solution. #Omaha #Nebraska 3newsnow.com/news/local-new…

Actual question: Why are climate advocates resistant to including smart growth policies as a part of their toolkits? How do we make the connection clearer between transportation emissions and housing?

@RockyMtnInst's Ben Holland says that urban infill is the No. 1 strategy for reducing American VMT emissions by the needed 20% and is a strategy heavily overlooked by the climate advocacy community. @YIMBYtown Required reading: rmi.org/our-driving-ha…
