The Urban Land Institute has a long history of providing unbiased, practical ideas and best practices on land use and sustainable development. Communities can access the unique expertise of our members locally through any of the ULI Chicago technical assistance services, including Technical Assistance Panels, Policy Workshops, and our Development Dialogues.

We look forward to working together to identify challenges and provide recommended solutions for complex land use planning and development projects, programs and policies to your community.

Tailoring our Services to your Community Needs

Moving your project forward
ULI Chicago’s signature Technical Assistance Panel (TAP) provides comprehensive and strategic advice in response to a specific land use or development assignment.

Building Local Capacity
Policy Workshops use regional demographic data and case studies to identify challenges and recommendations that address a broad real estate issue.

Connecting land use and economic growth
Development Dialogues foster discussion between ULI members and municipal leaders to connect community growth, economic potential and development opportunities.
