Getting to Smart Growth II

by: ICMA and the Smart Growth Network

Getting to Smart Growth II: 100 More Policies for Implementation is the newest primer in the ongoing series from the Smart Growth Network and ICMA, and follows on the heels of the extremely popular first volume of Getting to Smart Growth. The publication serves as a road map for states and communities that have recognized the need for smart growth but are unclear on how to achieve it.

Like the first volume, Getting to Smart Growth II provides 10 policy options to achieve each of the 10 Smart Growth Principles. These policies are supported with ''Practice Tips'' which offer additional resources or brief case studies of communities that have applied the approach to achieve smart growth. Features of the new volume include

• An entirely new list of 100 policies for implementation
• More case studies and examples in each chapter
• An appendix listing funding resources for smart growth projects.
