Inland Empire Section

+Complete Section Listing

The Mission of the Inland Empire Section is to:

  • Advance sound planning practices based on ethical principles to help eastern Washington communities improve their quality of life and realize their goals;
  • Use a rational approach to building communities, strive for middle-ground and the de-escalation of conflict in civil discourse;
  • Promote ongoing professional education and awareness of planning and community issues by convening conferences, workshops, and discussion groups;
  • Advocate proactive planning for issues of local, regional, and state-wide importance
  • Encourage opportunities for networking and social gatherings within the region to improve professional communications;
  • Be actively involved in community service and coordinate with governmental entities, allied professionals, and other concerned groups; and
  • Provide input to city county, state, or regional level private or public entities on planning issues of unique interest to the Inland Empire Section membership. 

Our Vision is that the Inland Empire Section is looked to as a resource for professional input on matters of development and environmental concerns in our communities. Our members confidently participate (or, represent the profession) in sound planning efforts and engage in community service, educational enrichment and regional cooperation.
