On May 15th, the APA Long Island Section will hold its annual Arthur Kunz Memorial Scholarship Breakfast between 8:00 AM  and 10:30 AM at Molloy College’s Suffolk Center at Republic Airport (see directions).  Each year, the best and brightest of Long Island’s future and young planners strive for the Arthur Kunz Scholarship, which allows for the recipient to attend the annual American Planning Association Conference.

This Year’s Presentation [1.25 CM Credits Approved!]

Water Quality Management:  A Coastal New England Case Study

Moderated by:

Sarah Lansdale, Director of Planning, Suffolk County Dep’t of Economic Development & Planning

Kristy Senatori, Deputy Director Cape Cod Commission

Erin Perry, Special Projects Coordinator Cape Cod Commission

       Featured Speakers

Kristy Senatori,Deputy Director, and Erin Perry, Special Projects Coordinator for the Cape Cod Commission will speak to the Cape’s plans for water quality management. Like Suffolk County and parts of Nassau County, nitrogen from septic systems has impaired Cape Cod’s coastal waters, which are critical to the area’s economy. The Cape Cod Commission is completing a Regional Wastewater Management Plan and an update to the Section 208 Area-wide Water Quality Management Plan. The plans introduce residents and policy makers to the science, the challenges, and the potential solutions for managing wastewater in an efficient and cost-effective way.

Honoring Scholarship Recipients:

We are pleased to report that this year LI Section was able to provide scholarships to three young planners from Long Island to attend the APA National Conference in Seattle:  Gabrielle Alper, Emily Humes and Megan Porter! The awardees will share their experiences with us at the breakfast.

Planning is crucial to helping Long Island become resilient to the challenges that lay ahead, and the Arthur Kunz Scholarship helps ensure the best and brightest are given the tools to succeed.

A healthy breakfast buffet will be provided.
