On Thursday, September 14, Lindsay Sturman will share the Livable Communities Initiative–a plan whose hallmarks include leveraging the power of grassroots organizing, gentle density, and rethinking commercial streets to be safer and more accessible. Based in LA but with lessons for cities everywhere, it is a unified vision for 15 minute communities that take into account our most pressing housing, traffic and climate challenges.
Join us as Lindsay discusses:
- Community development decisions that led to today’s typical city structures
- Benefits of taking a grassroots approach to community development and
- Actionable steps that can be taken to create more livable communities
Doors open at 5:45 p.m. for priority seating, drinks and appetizers.
