September 03rd, 2008 | Category: Campaign Updates, Front

Announcing the release of two great new resources for Restoring Prosperity advocates! Smart Growth America has developed two comprehensive policy packages focused on state historic preservation tax credits and state land bank enabling legislation. The packages include an overview of the policies, key features of successful legislation, advice on political strategy and communications, sample legislative language, and a fill-in fact sheet for advocates to distribute to state officials. The first in a series of six, these policy packages are intended to focus on issues of particular interest to those working to revitalize older industrial cities.
