New Strategies for Equitable Smart Growth: The Promise of Place-Based “Green Zones”

Speakers: Charlie Sciammas, Community Organizer, People Organizing to Demand Environmental and Economic Rights; Anita Maltbia, Executive Director, Green Impact Zone, Kansas City, MO; Carolina Martinez, Policy Advocate, Environmental Health Coalition; Penny Newman, Executive Director, Center for Community Action and Environmental Justice. Moderator: Sarah Russell, Brownfields Project Manager, U.S. EPA, Region 9.

How can smart growth braid together economic development and equity with a strong foundation in land-use planning into one cohesive movement? We explore this question from the bottom-up: from the perspective of organizations that are combining sustainable land-use planning and smart-growth principles with economic development, all within the framework of equity. The panel lookS at four place-based initiatives that are transitioning areas of high poverty, pollution and poor land-use planning into thriving communities with sustainable housing, transit and economic development. The models are examples of how communities across the country are using place-based models to address persistent issues of poor land-use planning, environmental burdens and lack of economic opportunity. The panelists will discuss how diverse groups can work together to achieve neighborhood-level change on issues of economic development, equity, and sustainable planning.

Success with Schools: New Tools for Your Community

Speakers: Candi Beaudry, AICP, Director, City of Billings, MT; Sharon Thomas, Mayor Pro Tem, City of Las Cruces, NM; Leslie Meehan, AICP, Director of Healthy Communities, Nashville Area Metropolitan Planning Organization. Moderator: Renee Kuhlman, Director of Special Projects-Government Relations and Policy, National Trust for Historic Preservation

Where to locate schools is a complex and often contentious question. Three communities are working to ensure that the health and sustainability of their community are part of the decision-making process. With help from EPA, Billings, Montana is developing a new cost calculator (with transportation, health, and environmental considerations) and conducting a thorough policy audit. Las Cruces, New Mexico has set up a joint city-county school district working group and will share how they are planning concurrently for the future. In Nashville, Tennessee, a new mixed-use development with a commuter train station is being built and planners have used a health impact assessment to help the community make a fair and equitable decision about the location of a new school facility. Attendees also share their own challenges so panelists can describe how the new tools can be used or modified in different situations.
