WATERVILLE — GrowSmart Maine’s annual summit — We Get What We Plan For: How Smart Growth Creates Community — is set for Monday, Oct. 21, at the Waterville Opera House, 1 Common St.
Housing, transportation and utilities, food systems, cultural and natural spaces are interconnected and essential community infrastructure. People can learn how integration of these assets builds a sustainable community.
As in built and natural ecosystems, resilient and thriving communities welcome diversity. Attendees will explore how public places and infrastructure define a community, convening with local, regional, and statewide leaders, conservationists, developers, and planners.
