78th Annual Conference in Bakersfield |
| Our 78th Annual CCPCA Conference takes place in Bakersfield on October 24 and 25, with President Ron Sprague serving as your event host.
The Conference theme is LAND & WATER PLANNING: A CRUCIAL MIX FOR CRITICAL DECISIONS.
In addition to a solid program, the 78th Conference will provide great networking opportunities and time to learn more about regional issues from other CCPCA members in enjoyable social settings and during our fun Inside Bakersfield tour on Saturday.
In a year when budgets are tight, and our local resources are stretched, learning how to better serve the future of our communities is the goal of this year's Conference, as well as the educational mission of CCPCA.

More websites of use to Commissioners, interested citizens, and professionals: |
 LUPIN ( California Land Use Planning Information Network ) is a state-sponsored web site that is growing to be the key hub for environmental information from state agencies. If you already access a lot of state agencies directly, much of this is old news, but it is continually growing. Plus, it is the best single source for model city and county zoning ordinances across California.
The Planning and Development Network has everything under the sun regarding planning (including rural and regional development and resource issues) from traffic calming in neighborhoods to multi-lateral water management agreements.
