5th Annual New Partners for Smart Growth | |
Denver, CO USA | |
New Partners for Smart Growth Conference has grown significantly since it began several years ago--increasing in scope, attendance, and prestige--and is now considered to be the "premier" smart growth conference held each year. The strength of this conference comes from the variety of participants and speakers who cross disciplines to share experiences and insights, and valuable tools and strategies to encourage smart growth implementation and "get it done."
The 2006 conference continues this exciting trend and includes more new partners than ever. They recognize smart growth as a viable solution to the many challenges posed by growth; they may see it as a smart investment, an opportunity to spur economic development, and/or a way to improve the public health. With the challenges our nation is currently facing--at home and abroad--there are more reasons than ever to join hands with new partners and work toward our common goal of creating safe, healthy, and livable communities for all. |
