Smart Growth In Action: Inderkum High School, Sacramento, California

North Natomas is a fast-growing planned community in Sacramento, California’s capital. In 2001, the city approved a master plan, designed according to smart growth principles, for the Natomas Town Center. Anchoring the community is Inderkum High School, a new two-story building on about 40 acres, a departure from California’s typical single-level buildings on 60-acre sites. It will share facilities with Los Rios Community College and a public library, and its athletics programs will use public park land and a community aquatic center.
