American Planning Association AICP Exam - Topic 7 Question 14 Discussion

ScenarioYou are a newly hired planner involved in the process of preparing a new recreation plan for your community. Your supervisor learns that the City Council is anxious to take action on a recreation plan, and therefore, you are instructed to prepare the plan without scheduling any time for public participation or public comment. Suppose you learn that there is a regulation in place and that this is clearly a violation of the regulation. What might you do?
A) When you learn that a violation has occurred, bring it to the attention of your director or supervisor. If you learn that the violation has occurred unintentionally, suggest remedies, such as delaying action on the plan until there is adequate time for a participatory process, scheduling a number of participatory events quickly, publicizing the events well, and revising the plan accordingly. It might be a good idea to discuss the situation with a more experienced planner (Ethical Principle 3) If the violation has occurred you discover that the violation has occurred intentionally, this is a very serious situation because as planners we shall not accept an assignment from an employer when the service to be performed involves conduct that we know to be illegal (Rule of Conduct 2)

I've got it! The key is understanding the relationship between the two files. Since they are linked by a foreign key, there will be at least three data functions - one to read from each file, and one to join the data between the two files. So the answer is 3.

I'm a bit confused. Is the "Location profile" or "Network Configuration Unit" also an option for modifying the DNS name servers?
