Re: Meadows on Smart Growth and Sprawl

[Rudy Rogalsky]

Meadow's source for the 12 Big Myth's of Growth is Eben Fodor's 1999 big little book called Better not Bigger:How to Take Control of  Urban Growth and Improve Your Community. The whole book is excellent. Other chapter titles include
Meet the Urban Growth Machine
The Truth About Jobs, Housing and Growth
Discovering the Real Costs of Growth in Your Community
Putting the Brakes on Growth--What Works
Also, Fodor has appended a bibliography Urban Growth Management sources and an extensive listing of mainly U.S. organizations concerned with land use.
A gold mine of examples to back up your discussions with the growth-mania types.
