"Planning for Sustainable Communities".
Speaker: Geoff Singer, Urban Planner and Ward 21 resident
There has been a growing recognition that the way our communities are designed plays a significant role in the defining environmental issues of our time including energy use, air quality and climate change. In recognition of World Town Planning Day 2009, this presentation will examine the ways that urban planners are responding to these challenges at multiple scales from the entire metropolitan region and the city down through to our own community here in Ward 21.
