Smart Growth Development Scorecard
Is this development sustainable?
1000 Friends of Connecticut has created a tool to score development against Smart Growth criteria. A committee of volunteers analyzes real estate development plans to determine if the project reflects Smart Growth standards and principles. 1000 Friends advocates for developments that score well and will offer constructive suggestions to strengthen projects that aren't quite as smart. We rate developments on their use of existing infrastructure , compactness, mix of housing, office space, shops and other uses, parking, walkability, design, and greenness.
