Building Zion One Planner at a Time


Hi Everyone,

Dad's at it again. Tomorrow morning he will be the keynote speaker for the Utah Chapter of the American Planning Association, showing over 100 slides and speaking for an hour and a half to this group of city builders. I can't wait to hear his talk. He has been working hard at it for weeks. He is truly one of the most productive men I know. Currently, besides that project, he is advising the Church legal department on immigration issues and planning travel to Honduras to help the church with environmental issues. He gives another paper at a conference in Denver in a month on an environmental law issue. He is taking the Garden Park Young Men backpacking, taking me on dates, performing lots of pro bono and working long hours at his day job. What a man. I am so in love with him!

Here's the blurb: Local Attorney Craig Galli

Educating both local and regional planners regarding unique historic and cultural roots of urban design throughout the Salt Lake Valley, how this design has changed over time, and today’s challenges of building sustainable communities in a region will be reviewed by Mr. Galli. He will also detail the integration of social, physical, political, and theological influences into the existing urban fabric and review the historical and current trends in transportation, housing, environmental stewardship, and economic growth.
