Panelists will share progress updates within their disciplines, surface blind spots and cross-industry gaps, celebrate wins, and identify the knowledge and skills practitioners need most right now.

Designing For Maintenance Success
by Scott Rice, PLA, ASLA, RHA Community Works; ?
|
 |
A beautiful design means nothing if it can't be maintained. Panelists will explore real-world successes and cautionary tales with a focus on designing within realistic maintenance budgets, identifying chronic pain points in the field, and building the cross-disciplinary communications habits that lead to spaces to that truly last. Attendees will leave with practical tools for bridging the design-to-maintenance gap on their next project.

Fire-Resistant Native Plants
by Greg Rubin, CA's Own Native Landscaping
|
 |
Having had 20 landscapes involved in major fire events, without the loss of a single home, a well designed and maintained native landscape may actually be one of the MOST fire resistant choices available. The results of our 4 year research project for the U.S. Navy, examining the phenomenon of native landscape fire resistance, will be discussed, as well as actual case histories with photos.
