Dara Sanders, Urban Planner for the Metropolitan Planning Commission, and Head of Master Plan Implementation, is scheduled to speak at ABS Monday. Dara will be updating us on where the city and parish stand in it's implementation of the Master Plan for Shreveport.
Dara is a veteran planner who's previous work in Fayetteville, Arkansas helped raise quality of life through nature trails and bike paths, as well as rezoning to allow a better use of space for the city.
Dara knows all about "smart growth." In ABS' view, "smart growth" is the difference between letting a city grow into a sprawling, wasteful, and unfulfilling place to live, and controlling that growth, shaping it into a place where people come to live because of the quality of life such a place provides.
Come Monday to hear how we can all help Shreveport grow intelligently!
As always, we'll meet 6:00-7:00 in the Wright Math Building, across the street from Magale Library on Woodlawn, two blocks up from the Gold Dome on Centenary College's campus. Join us!
