The “Infrastructure and Land Use Exchange” is a regularly scheduled series of bi-monthly meetings to facilitate conversations and dialogues between ULI members, District Council staff, and HQ staff to establish a feedback loop to promote the most innovative and/or effective best practices for infrastructure investment. Meetings serve as an opportunity to share and exchange ideas with a presentation on an infrastructure topic, project/program updates from District Councils, and a facilitated conversation between attendees. The exchange is intended to foster better ULI collaboration, program and research ideas, funding opportunities, and help facilitate the right types of infrastructure investment. 

For 2021-2022, the meetings are scheduled on the following days from 2 PM ET-3:30 PM ET.
