PALM SPRINGS, CA-Those on the East Coast or in Chicago will undoubtedly be the littlest bit jealous of this year's NMHC Apartment Strategies Outlook Conference taking place here this week. Not only is it a great gathering of like-minded individuals in the commercial real estate industry, but the weather is markedly better in this direction.
Our West Coast reporter Carrie Rossenfeld was on hand at the event and reported on, most significantly, the panel “The Partnership with Municipalities—Finding Common Ground in Apartment Development” during which participants mulled over the ways that municipalities, owners and developers can work together to facilitate projects that are successful for all.
Other conference attendees weighed in on Twitter, along with Carrie, who shared her insights over at the account @GlobeStLIVE.
