October is National Community Planning Month and the APA-Texas Chapter wants to celebrate by showcasing your community’s planning story!
- Snap a photo of you in your community at a place that illustrates why planning matters. You can bring your selfie stick or bring your entire department with you!
- Upload the photo on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram and tag @txplanning with the hashtag #PLANNINGMONTH and a short description of the place.
The APATX Chapter will share your planning story to help celebrate National Planning Month and our state's great planning successes.
