The APA-Texas Chapter Awards Committee has chosen the Colleyville Plaza as the recipient of the Chapter's 2020 Urban Design Achievement Award - Silver. This award honors efforts to create a sense of place, whether a street, public space, neighborhood, or campus effort.

The American Planning Association provides leadership in the development of vital communities for all by advocating excellence in planning, promoting education and resident empowerment, and providing our members with the tools and support necessary to ethically meet the challenges of growth and change.

 The APA Texas Planning Awards Program recognizes individuals, organizations and communities for outstanding contributions to planning in Texas. Any APA Texas member may nominate plans, projects, programs, individuals, or organizations to several categories.  The Awards Committee evaluates nominees based on originality and innovation, engagement, implementation and effectiveness, quality, and promotion of planning. This year, the awards were reviewed, judged and selected by the review panel made up of members from the APA-Colorado and APA-Texas Chapter. The awards program allows the Texas Chapter to promote the work of planners, planning officials and students in our state by recognizing exemplary work at the annual planning conference.
