New Tecumseth is growing quickly. What does "smart growth" mean to you in practice - more density, more sprawl, or something else?

Shira Harrison McIntyre's answer

Smart growth looks like building communities rather than building the town one subdivision at a time with no over-arching plan for the movement of people and goods. There are some many examples out there on how not to build a city and we need to learn from their mistakes and avoid making the same errors. We need a mix of housing options to accommodate people at all stages of their lives.
