Implementing Smart Growth May 10, 2005

Smart Growth, May 11
Brie Hensold, bhenhold@nbm.org

Wednesday, May 11, 12:30-1:30 p.m. The reasons for smart growth are
compelling, but implementation remains challenging. A team from the
Smart Growth Leadership Institute (SGLI) has been working with
communities that are grappling with specific local challenges to
creating smart growth. The team has drawn from experience in 13
communities to create a Smart Growth Implementation Kit for national
distribution. Harriet Tregoning, SGLI executive director, will describe
the tools developed in this project, including a policy and code and
zoning audit, smart sites template, and a smart growth design checklist.
At the National Building Museum, 401 F Street, NW, Judiciary Square
stop, Metro Red Line. Free. Registration not required.
