California Planning Foundation CPF Board of Directors

About CPF | Administration | Strategic Plan | Financial Status

All members of CCAPA are automatically members of CPF.  Although CCAPA members pay annual dues to belong to CCAPA and the national organization, the American Planning Association, there are no separate dues that go to CPF.

A ten member Board of Directors governs CPF.  The members of the CCAPA elect eight members to four-year terms. The CCAPA Vice President for Professional Development and the CCAPA Student Representative Board Member are also CPF Board members. The CPF Board elects the officers of the Foundation.  The President of CPF also serves as a member of the CCAPA’s Board of Directors. The CPF Board is responsible for setting the annual budget of the Foundation, developing the annual professional development programs, and selecting the recipients of the Foundation’s annual statewide scholarships.
