Moderator: Chris Beck, Senior Projects Advisor, U.S. Department of Agriculture (2 hour session) Massive outmigration and major industry shifts have left many small towns across the country with challenging impacts of changes in population and local economies. Others are feeling the pressure of new development dynamics. Innovative local leaders are developing strategies creating economically dynamic places where people want to live. How will placemaking, smart growth, regional planning and innovative economic development contribute to revitalizing small towns? Based on current case study research conducted by the panelists, the details of the strategies as well as the designs that form the basis of rural smart growth will be presented and discussed. Examples of successful design and project management approaches are presented. The diversity in the types of rural communities makes “rural” strategies difficult to pin down. The panelists present portfolio-style examples of rural smart growth in a variety of settings, and will lead a discussion of key elements of rural sustainability. | | MP3 | | $20.00 | | $20.00 | |
