Partners Update - July 2006

Got an e-mail from George Grasser containing the July 2006 Partners for a Livable WNY report. Lots of good news. George's e-mail also contained a report from a conference he attended recently in Auburn, NY - Unifying the Economic Development and the Environment. Here's that link.

Mark your calendar for this event at the Saturn Club taking place in a few weeks. Check out the New Millenium Group website for additional details.

July 29th - Saturday
10:00 to 2:30 p.m. (with lunch provided)
Saturn Club, 977 Delaware Avenue

Presentation by attorneys Nathan Norris and Chad Emerson from the PlaceMakers organization of Alabama on how the City of Buffalo can adopt a “SmartCode” zoning ordinance. Learn what a form-based zoning code can do to improve land use and the built environment of a city. Many City officials have been invited to attend. The event has been organized by Chuck Banas and Chris Hawley of the New Millenium Group. This program is open to anyone who would like to attend, but you must make reservations by e-mailing Chuck Banas, as space is limited.

I've archived past Partner's Newsletters, over here.

There is a quality even meaner than outright ugliness or disorder, and this meaner quality is the dishonest mask
of pretended order, achieved by ignoring or suppressing the real order that is struggling to exist and to be served.
- Jane Jacobs (1916-2006) from The Death and Life of Great American Cities, 1961.
