The Obama administration wants our cities and towns to develop differently—promoting patterns that create more sustainable, affordable communities. Given the energy crisis last year, and our need to protect the environment, this make sense. Right?
Well, some thought leaders think differently. Ron Utt, of the Heritage Foundation, a DC-based think tank, views the new direction as “an attack on the suburbs.” You can read more about Utt’s thoughts here.
So what do you think? Is the Obama administration’s new direction an attack on the suburbs (where a lot of folk in this region live, work and play)? What are the implications of this policy shift for our the Triangle?
