Take risks together and help each other succeed

20:39
create shared outdoor spaces and good walkability

20:53
Have regular, inclusive community events & celebrations

21:01
Even though the public is invited to attend zoning, planning, and economic development commissions no one does.

21:03
Invest in it's institutions (e.g. public libraries).

21:14
How can a community "deal with" bottom-line developers?

21:20
Know your vulnerable neighbors and check in on them.

21:22
Yes, Open Streets, Better Block, all help create community!

21:52
during Covid we started a neighborhood email chain for mutual assistance

22:30
Allow virtual participation in all public hearings, so more people can contribute

22:41
All of this builds "social infrastructure"

23:20
The Farmers market in Rosendale was our only social contact during covid

23:40
At least during COVID, lots more people Zoom in than ever attended planning meetings.

26:23
annual CRO-ing, love it!

Pick up Repair Revolution by John Wackman and Elizabeth Knight - just published New World Library - bookshop.org

Wow!

31:05
Great analogy!

31:39
"Spirit of place symbolizes the living ecological relationship between a particular location and the persons who have derived from it and added to it the various aspects of their humanness. The reason we are now desecrating nature is not because we use it to our ends, but because we commonly manipulate it without respect for the spirit of place." - Rene Dubos

33:52
How about the story of Rosendale...cut off from its river by flood control (Army Corps) in the sixties or seventies. Andrew--you know more about this

34:33
And some property owners are preventing public access to the creek.

34:34
Binghamton is in the midst of trying to create a sense of place. To mixed success.

35:19
Hoboken!!!

37:03
Great examples!

38:52
sex and infrastructure in the same sentence!

43:59
Parkville is Hartford’s poorest neighborhood and the micro-grid powers the market, a gas station, and I think some housing.

44:47
"cobbling" is a good thing, right?

45:25
and the cost of doing nothing

47:04
The Chicago Honey Cooperative, remarkable use of old industrial sites

52:15
Such a good illustration/point.

01:02:15
The EPA (yes, the EPA!) is getting more & more involved in sustainable resource management--with particular focus on disaster recovery

01:03:23
"Twenty-first century libraries" see themselves as sustainability leaders for their communities

01:04:20
thank you for sharing all of this evidence of success! have to hop off. Thanks!!!

01:06:15
Chambers of commerce are non profit organizations and can move faster than government. sometimes need to make illogical partnerships

01:06:41
There are fantastic well organized strategic Chambers - Saugerties comes to mind.

01:07:24
I hope this is being recorded

01:07:51
It is.
