Welcome to APA Long Island Section’s online forum designed to better communicate with our members and any Long Islanders interested in planning issues. We are one of four Sections of the APA NY Metro Chapter – more information about the Metro Chapter and other sections can be found at on APA NY Metro’s website.
Long Island Section members are private and municipal planners, public officials, and concerned citizens that work or reside in Nassau or Suffolk Counties. The Section offers educational and social events including workshops, panels, guest speakers, and joint meetings with other professional groups. Section activities and events are organized by the Steering Committee. Steering Committee meetings are held monthly and are open to all APA members. Please contact one of us to be added to the meeting invitation list. No additional dues or requirements are necessary to join and participation is encouraged.
