The 15th Annual Long Island Smart Growth Summit, will be held on Friday, December 2nd from 8am-4pm at the Crest Hollow Country Club. Registration form and sponsorship information are below.
Last year's event drew over 1,000 civic, chambers, developers, environmentalists, design professionals, business leaders, young people and over 70 federal, state, county, town and village elected officials from Long Island and the region. Over the last five years we have had 1000-1200 in attendance.
The Smart Growth Movement is busy approving 12,000 units of transit oriented development, revitalization programs in over 50 Long Island downtowns, 40 traffic calming projects, new Main Street office space, lively restaurants/bars nightlife, and countless events featuring the arts, culture and live music. Recent increased Federal, State and County infrastructure investments in our sewers, rails, buses and roadways have also been critical to the success of the redevelopment projects.
The Summit is the event where we share ideas, network on projects, financing, regulations and spotlight successes while managing roadblocks.
The 15th Annual Long Island Smart Growth Summit will feature networking, a trade show, nearly 20 workshops, a youth summit and plenary sessions on regional and local issues facing mixed-use development.
