Incentives for Smart Growth in Maryland

This conference presentation provides a brief overview of some of the smart growth issues related to transportation in Maryland. The importance of interacting in a positive way with elected officials is discussed. Maryland has succeeded with neighborhood conservation (smart growth) projects by beginning with these projects in rural areas and by promising elected officials and actually delivering these projects within a 4-year election cycle.
