Smart Growth Community Workshops

Smart Growth is a nationwide movement to invest time, effort and resources in order to restore community and vitality to center cities and older suburbs. Smart Growth focuses on areas such as:

• Less urban sprawl
• Less traffic
• Less air and water pollution
• More sidewalk and bike lanes
• More green space
• Better access to public transportation
• Amenities closer to residential areas

There are several community workshops scheduled so that you can learn more about Smart Growth and how it can impact your community.
