Save the Date! April 21 NoN Talk, “Environmentalism or Urban Growth?”

Join us Tuesday, April 21, at 7 p.m. in the Norwalk Conservatory’s Riverview Theater, 24 Belden Ave., for our next NoN Talk:

Environmentalism or Urban Growth?
Balancing the two in pursuit of a Green City

The debate over the proposed development at 108 Water Street raises broader questions facing Norwalk: How do we balance much-needed housing and infrastructure growth with environmental concerns? What truly counts as sustainable development? How can individuals mitigate some of the ongoing risks of climate change?

Norwalk’s goal of becoming a ‘green city’ remains challenging, as seemingly opposing forces seek solutions that will protect our community and its natural resources. But is this an “either/or” situation? Can we achieve both?

In this NoN Talks, we’ve invited local leaders to discuss how everyone – concerned citizens, developers, environmentalists, and city planners – can work to achieve sustainable growth.

Join us on April 21 for a conversation with:

• Louise Washer, Norwalk River Watershed Association
• Alanna Morque, Chief of Staff, Spinnaker Real Estate Partners
• Jodi Trendler, Director of Sustainability, City of Norwalk

NoN Talks are live events developed by NancyOnNorwalk to provide a local lens to national issues.
