Five Communities to Take Part in Sustainable Design Assessment Program Launch | |||||||||||
In short, the SDAT program will help communities begin to work towards achieving sustainability. First, a team of national professionals—ranging from architects, hydrologists, and transportation experts to economists and air-quality experts—will assemble based on their credentials and the specific needs of each community. Then, together with local stakeholders, the team will address specific, pertinent issues, such as high-development pressures in rural areas, river contamination, traffic congestion, economic diversification, and air pollution. The collaborative process will give the community a road map to improve sustainability and guide future design and policy decisions.
In late fall, the center will issue a request for proposals that will
offer another opportunity for communities across the nation to take part
in this program. To learn more, e-mail sdat@aia.org or visit the AIA
