Urban planners hold multifunctional responsibilities of bridging policy drafting and spatial project implementation within governance frameworks.
Urban planners connect policy and place by acting within a certain governance regime. The planner may be an architect focused on spatial design or it could be an urbanist that is concerned with area plans. This person may work for the city or be a private consultant that is capable of building a project. Sometimes this role will
be combined with the policy maker’s role and will draft policy and then develop concrete projects.
