Getting to Smart Growth
"Perhaps most critical to
successfully achieving smart growth is realizing that no
one policy or approach will transform a community."
Authors
Emphasizing the need for practical and even-keeled
approaches to smart growth, GTSG is packed with suggestions
that can be implemented in different development scenarios.
Features
- Getting to Smart Growth
is organized around 10 guiding principals. Among the 10
included principles are: mixing land uses; taking advantage
of compact building design; creating walkable communities;
and crafting
distinctive, attractive communities with a strong sense of place.
Every principal
is then further divided into 10 specific policies
and/or
tools that promote smart growth initiatives.
- An easy-to-use chart summarizes monograph
content.
- Practice tips are scattered throughout and
highlight programs undertaken on the local, state, and federal
levels.
