Smarter Codes, Smarter Growth:
How to Achieve your Smart Growth Goals through Zoning Code Reform
A pre-conference workshop at New Partners for Smart Growth
Charlotte, North Carolina – Feb. 2, 2011
Fourteen of the nation’s leading Smart Growth practitioners, led by renowned urbanist Andrés Duany, provide an information-packed, day-long workshop at the Westin Charlotte Hotel. This workshop will provide everything you ever wanted to know about Smart Growth Codes, the most effective tools cities have for creating healthy, walkable communities. For the very low price of $89, you will receive a boxed lunch, AICP credits, and the fun of being in a room full of folks who are like you, searching for the most timely and cost-effective ways to get from sprawl-inducing conventional zoning to comprehensive coding for character, community and public health.
Please contact us if you would like to join the Transect Discussion List for urbanists and environmentalists.
