How did the place where you are right now get built? Who built your home? When was it built, and why was it built in the size and shape that it is? Every place in Bloomington was developed...even that park you may be standing in the middle of, if that's where you happen to be listening to this. People can't just build willy-nilly any more...they have to follow certain rules the community has set up.
Our guest today is Scott Robinson. Today he begins a new job as the Community Development Director for the town of Timnith, CO. But he's our guest because he was the Director of Planning & Transportation for COB through most of the last term of the Hamilton administration which ended January 1. Before that, he worked in the Planning & Transportation Department as a planner or deputy director for more than 20 years. We talk with him about why there is a land-use planning office, about how planning works, to reflect on the work he did here, and what's on the horizon for the city's built environment.
