"This 120-page primer from the ongoing series by ICMA and the Smart Growth Network describes concrete techniques of putting the ten smart growth principles into practice. The policies and guidelines presented in this primer have proven successful in communities across the United States, and range from formal legislative or regulatory efforts to informal approaches, plans, and programs. Similar in format to the first volume of Getting to Smart Growth, this new volume lists and describes an entirely new set of 100 policies for implementation."
