Mission Statement

The Coalition works to facilitate adoption of land use planning policies that:

  • Protect areas of natural significance
  • Preserve and revitalize urban neighborhoods
  • preserve the area's natural character
  • Conserve open space
  • Reduce leapfrog development
  • Reduce public subsidy of infrastructure that supports and encourages urban sprawl
  • Encourages the viability of family farm

 

 

 

 

 

 


Over a dozen community
and environmental groups have formed the Boone County Smart Growth Coalition to work toward sustainable, prosperous communities
that strike a
balance between private
and public interests, between urban and rural land use, and between developed areas and natural spaces.

Boone County Smart Growth meets the first Wednesdayof each month
at 7:15 p.m. in the Boone County Commission Chambers.

See you there and bring a friend who is concerned about how Columbia and Boone County is growing and what will be preserved in the process.
