    What is UrbanPlan?
    UrbanPlan is a realistic, engaging exercise in which participants -- high school students, university students, or public officials -- learn the fundamental forces that affect development in out communities. Participants experience challenging issues, private and public sector roles, complex trade-offs, and fundamental economics in play when proposing realistic land use solutions to vexing growth challenges.
