Regionalism is sweeping the country by promising cleaner environments, healthier communities and greater economic prosperity.  But, the marketing companies that sell these programs often use high pressure techniques that promote a glamorized portrayal of the new region’s future while ignoring the gritty personal and community consequences.

John Anthony, a nationally recognized speaker on regionalism, will present the 75-minute program, “Control! How Regional Sustainable Development is Transforming Your Community.”

Learn exactly how unique your community plan is, compared to other regions.  Find out what planners say is “mandatory” to make all regional plans work.  Get a close look at the control wielded by the sources that finance your new region.

Control gives community members an inside look at the issues faced by all communities as they confront the realities of regionalism.
