With the horror unleashed in the Gulf of Mexico - we all need to envision a healthier sustainable future. Time is crucial. Sprawl in our cities is the result of an oil dependent addiction.
Startford inherited an intact downtown from visionaries of the past. It is our responsibility to hold on to this important asset and past it on to the future.
We need policies that:
* restrict the size of parking lots on the periphery of our city
*require parking lots to be located away from the street scape - possibly behind the box store
* require the store to plant trees and a green-scape in front of their store
*require Victorian style architecture to fit the character of our city
What other ideas do you have to prevent any more sprawl in Stratford? And Preserve Beauty....
