UnJAM 2035 Regional Summit
was held May 10, 2008

Where: Monticello High School Cafeteria
1400 Independence Way, Charlottesville, VA



Basic concepts were introduced including innovative, cost-effective solutions to consider for integration of land use, economy, and environment into planning of the transportation network. Participants worked in groups to discuss issues and mark up maps to further illustrate their suggestions and concepts. The opportunity to submit individual ideas was allowed with the use of a “Quick Pick” form.

For those who could not attend the Regional Summit, we have posted on this page a summary of the event, both PowerPoint presentations and a copy of the workbooks used by attendees.
