Topic: Air Quality and Urban Infill Development
Guest Speakers: Larry Greene, Air Pollution Control Officer for the Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District; Jeffrey Dorso with the Diepenbrock Harrison law firm; and Brian Beveridge of the West Oakland Indicators Project
Stop urban sprawl! Encourage brownfield development! But don't put houses too close to freeways, ports or railyards! Just, exactly, where does that leave us? Helping us to navigate this no-man's land are three speakers with first-hand experience trying to weave a path through the thicket of urban development and air quality constraints. We're pleased to welcome Larry Greene, Air Pollution Control Officer for the Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District; Jeffrey Dorso with the Diepenbrock Harrison law firm (who worked on the Sacramento Railyards project); and Brian Beveridge of the West Oakland Indicators Project. We can promise a lively and stimulating discussion.
