Plan-it Allen! invites you to view Allen County and Fort Wayne in a whole new way. Your guide: John Norquist, nationally-known community development expert and former Mayor of Milwaukee.
Join John Norquist on Tuesday, December 13 in the IPFW Walb Union Ballroom. His take on “Turning Community Dreams into Livable Realities” is intriguing, innovative…and not to be missed.
Tuesday, December 13. A light hors d’oeuvres reception begins at 5 p.m. John Norquist’s highly-visual presentation starts at 6 p.m. Both events are free. Parking is also available free in the garage adjacent to Walb Union.
John Norquist’s appearance is sponsored proudly by the Fort Wayne Area Association of Realtors’ MLS Housing Symposium Fund, IPFW, the City of Fort Wayne and Allen County.
Norquist is currently the President of the Congress for the New Urbanism and is widely-recognized for his presentations on community design and development. He served as Mayor of Milwaukee, Wisconsin from 1988-2003. His hands-on experience in putting walkable, livable, mixed-use concepts to work successfully in his own community coupled with his appealing speaking style make him a natural ambassador for Plan-it Allen! and the new ideas being explored in our community.
Plan-it Allen! is the citizen-powered initiative to develop a new comprehensive land-use and development plan for Allen County and the City of Fort Wayne – the first, joint effort in our community’s history.
