American City Planning Directors' Council

The American City Planners Directors' Council (ACPDC) is a national organization of the City Planning Directors from America's largest central and other cities in the nation and in each state. City Planning Directors automatically become members when they are appointed to a City Planning Director position. Over 300 cities from all 50 states are included.
ACPDC’s primary purpose is to improve the quality of America's cities. It does this through an information exchange program, meetings and supporting the American City Quality Month program every April. The purpose of the month long activities is  to raise public awareness about the status and future or America's cities and promote better city planning, decisions, design, development, management and action.
ACPDC's presiding officer is the City Planning Director from the same City as the National League of Cities' President.
Activities of the ACPDC are supported in part by the American City Quality Foundation.

Information Exchange Program

The Information Exchange Program is a program of the American City Quality Foundation to promote the exchange of information among the nation's city planning directors and colleagues. Information includes news, plans, studies and reports prepared by the city planning director's offices or other sources.

City Planning Directors are encouraged to participate in this program by notifying the ACQF office and sending a copy of the report. ACQF will then send mailing labels or make other arrangements for the report's distribution.
