Chuck Marohn of Strong Towns is hosting a “Curbside Chat” in Northfield on February 17. A Curbside Chat is a presentation, followed by discussion, which includes:
- Demographic and economic triggers forcing changes in the way we grow and develop
- The “dead ideas” we need to overcome in order to make wise decisions
- What the coming new economy is likely to look like at the local level
- What communities can do to position themselves for renewed prosperity
Strong Towns is a non-partisan 501(c)3 nonprofit that advocates for a grass-roots, citizen-driven approach for increasing cities' fiscal resilience and maximizing return on community investments.
