Cold Spring Harbor Library To Host Smart Growth Event Tomorrow, March 18th at 6PM

cshThe Cold Spring Harbor Library will be hosting an event on March 18th to bring awareness to the community about Smart Growth, Energy, and the Environment. This interactive discussion brings together members of Vision Long Island, the North Shore Land Alliance, and the Neighborhood Network and takes place from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.

Join Vision Long Island, the North Shore Land Alliance, and the Neighborhood Network for an interactive discussion highlighting the ‘green’ side of Smart Growth: Open space preservation, energy efficiency, and local solutions to global warming.

Vision Long Island works with groups across Long Island to advance livable, economically sustainable and environmentally responsible “Smart Growth.” Smart Growth focuses on infill development, re-development, and open space preservation, supporting attractive traditional communities that are pedestrian friendly and that make affordable housing and public transportation desirable and realistic.

The North Shore Land Alliance, Inc. is a land trust formed to protect and preserve, in perpetuity, the green spaces, wetlands, and historical sites of Long Island’s North Shore for the enjoyment and benefit of future generations and the protection and enhancement of homeowner quality of life.

The Neighborhood Network is dedicated to reclaiming the suburban and rural character of community life on Long Island by preserving our environmental resources, initiating efforts to employ clean energy technologies, advancing planning principles that foster stronger communities, and holding our governmental officials accountable by advancing reforms which set the highest ethical standards and keep the operation of government open to the public.

A flyer about the event can be found here and a press release is available here. Visit the Cold Spring Harbor Library's website for more information or contact Vision Long Island at 631-261-0242.
