Royal Town Planning Institute
The Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) is the principal body representing planning professionals in the United Kingdom and Ireland. It promotes and develops policy affecting planning and the built environment. Founded in 1914, the institute was granted a Royal Charter in 1959. In 2012 it reported that it had over 23,000 members. ==Origins== Following the Housing, Town Planning, &c. Act 1909, surveyors, civil engineers, architects, lawyers and others began working together within local government in the UK to draw up schemes for the development of land. The idea of town planning as a new and distinctive area of expertise began to be formed. In 1910, Thomas Adams was appointed as the first Town Planning Inspector at the Local Government Board, and began meeting with practitioners. In November 1913, a meeting was convened of interested professionals to establish a new Institute, and Adams was elected as the group's President. The Town Planning Institute (TPI) was launched with an inaugural dinner in January 1914, and it was formally established on 4 September 1914 when its Articles of Association were signed. The first three of the Articles of Association were:〔( RTPI.org.uk, ''About the RTPI'' ). Retrieved 17 January 2013〕 *To advance the study of town-planning, civic design and kindred subjects, and of the arts and sciences as applied to those subjects; *To promote the artistic and scientific development of towns and cities; *To secure the association, and to promote the general interests of those engaged or interested in the practice of town-planning.
The institute received its royal charter in 1959, then becoming the Royal Town Planning Institute.〔(The Royal Town Planning Institute, Royal Charter and Byelaws, revised 2007 )〕
