Brown Bag Series
What are the measures that will bring about a complete community? How do we plan for growth in housing that doesn’t increase traffic and vehicle miles traveled? How can housing growth boost our affordable housing stock, instead of just attracting new affluent residents to the area? How can growth along transit corridors be a benefit to the surrounding neighborhoods rather than diminish the quality of life?
Our Brown Bag series is an effort to get diverse members of the community talking to each other on these issues.
