Many towns in North America are struggling financially despite decades of "growth." Those big highway expansion projects, those expensive transportation infrastructure bills, are making your place poorer. In this presentation, Charles Marohn, professional engineer and founder of the Strong Towns movement, will show how local leaders of all types can change the negative trajectory in their towns and help them to become more resilient—no matter what challenges lie ahead. The solution is to focus on bottom-up strategies for making investments that will actually build wealth, all while improving quality of life for residents of a community.
