They recognize outstanding planning projects by professionals throughout the state and select student projects.

Awards Chair Melissa Zornitta, FAICP, remarked: “This year’s awards applicants made a very competitive field of candidates; the projects were all of a very high caliber, representing some great planning across the state of Florida. The student awards were truly remarkable this year; the committee thought that the work stood out in comparison to previous years and was very impressive given it was being done by students.”
