has been introduced in the Senate by Chris Dodd, Robert Menendez, Jeff Merkley, Michael Bennet, and Dan Akaka. Link to http://www.nado.org/legaffair/section.pdf for specific information on the legislation.
This legislation will provide grants to help communities promote sustainable development by reducing traffic problems through tranist-oriented projects, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, reduce gas consumption, protect rural areas and open space, channel development trends to urban centers and create more affordable housing. This will be another effort in using federal funds to further guide local municipalities in implementing development patterns.
Our industry is changing and we must be on the cutting-edge of this change.
