The public is invited to a free presentation and conversation with the CT League of Conservation Voters (CT LCV) about connecting and preserving our state’s communities with better transportation. The forum will be held tomorrow, November 19, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the deKoven House Community Center.
"Getting
Where You Want to Go," will explore the upfront and hidden costs of
our present transportation system on the state’s economy, public health and
natural resources. It will also present a vision for a new, 21st-century system
that promotes livable communities, enhances public health and our economy, and
preserves our environment--all while moving people and goods to where they need
to go.
The
presentation is based on a new publication by CT LCV, available for free
download at http://www.conservationeducation.org
Hosted by The Rockfall Foundation, this forum is
free.
Seating is on a first come, first served basis. Registration is not
