Livable Communities Forum

Livable Communities forum waaaay too stimulating:-)  Excellent speakers from Minnesota, Utah, Colorado, and Georgia -- different cultures with one goal.  Transit Oriented Development in southern Utah?  Who would have ever expected?  Public/private intercity bus in Washington state?
As a erstwhile lawyer/policy researcher I am fascinated in how STATE policy can enable livable community development.  I don't think it's ALL about authorizing money expenditures.  Anyone have thoughts?  Any "model" legislation?

 I ALMOST talked to local ACTION Montgomery folks -- might have resulted in obligation -- happily dodged it:-)  Glad to know that there are "villages" (senior villages?) in Montgomery County -- wonder how people who want to get one established find out about them.  Ahhhh, sharing information:-)

By the way, I do have obligations that I accept gladly: family, DH, tapestry weaving. Commitment to learning every day -- something:-)  Almost anything will do....
