Technical Assistance Reports
The Urban Land Institute has provided Technical Assistance Panels (TAPs) to non-profit organizations, institutions, and public-sector agencies, departments, and stakeholders since 1948. TAPs provide direct assistance to communities by leveraging the experience of subject matter experts to address challenging land use and real estate issues.
What is a TAP? TAPs bring together a volunteer panel of high-level experienced land use, planning, real estate, and technical professionals for a one-to-three-day session to engage in stakeholder interviews, analysis, and strategy development to address a complex urban land use issue.
Are you connected to a government agency or nonprofit that is looking for assistance with a challenging land use or development issue? ULI’s Technical Assistance Panel (TAP) program would love to help! Read more about the program here and reach out to [email protected] with any questions.
