Hear how smart growth zoning, the proposed Land Use Reform Act and
proposed smart growth school funding could affect development on

land use law and real world discussion of local growth management
strategies.

SPONSORS
This presentation of the Green Communities Speaker Series is brought
to you by the South Coastal
Watershed Network and the Citizen
Planner Training Collaborative. The SCWNetwork is an informal
group of conservationists, municipal officials, government agencies,
and developers who work together to protect our region’s water resources.
As the South Shore continues to develop at a rapid pace, these stakeholders
play an increasingly important role in environmental protection.
The SCWNetwork is coordinated by the North
and South Rivers Watershed Association, the Massachusetts
Bays National Estuary Program, and the Massachusetts
Office of Coastal Zone Management.
