Bringing Smart Growth in Moscow

 

The Moscow Civic Association will meet to discuss Smart Growth on 
Monday, March 8, at 7:30pm at the 1912 Center in Moscow, announced MCA 
President Lois Blackburn.  The public meeting will focus on enhancing 
the livability of the community by using the principles of Smart Growth 
to manage and direct growth in Moscow.  

 

The guest speaker will be Elaine Clegg of Boise.  She is the co-director 
of Idaho Smart Growth and was elected in November to the Boise City 
Council.   Clegg will discuss applying Smart Growth principles to shape 
the future of Moscow and will respond to questions.  

 

Elaine Clegg became Idaho Smart Growth Co-Director in May 1998 after 
serving on the project's advisory committee. An Idaho native, she has 
been an activist in growth management issues in the Boise area since 
1984. In November, she was elected to Boise's City Council, beating her 
rival by 64 to 36 percent.

 

Moscow is changing, Blackburn said, pointing to new housing, increasing 
traffic, and a growing population.  Recognizing that all community 
members are affected by new development, not just buyers and developers, 
the Moscow Civic Association encourages citizens to participate in this 
forum to learn how to be actively involved in community planning and 
development. 

 

The Moscow Civic Association is a non-profit citizen's organization that 
strives to improve the quality of life for Moscow residents.  More
