New Tecumseth is growing quickly. What does "smart growth" mean to you in pract…

Smart growth for me is not just about homes. We have to consider the community and environment as a whole. A balance of some density produces economies of scale for some services but is not ideal in every environment. Having proper infrastructure to connect the growth makes for a society where people can choose the open spaces or elevated spaces according to their needs and budgets.

Lifestyle choices change and we should be able to accommodate young workers, small families, empty nesters' and those who need additional care. Each category has different values and needs to balance.

Employment, Schooling , Higher Education, Healthcare and Recreation all form part of what make us NewTecumseth.
