3. Smart Growth

How will the Westland-SunCal TIDD make the Westside an even better place to live?

We are using "smart growth" designs to plan a community that brings residents together through right-sized parks, bike paths, open spaces and roads. Smart growth fights sprawl by planning for the future, and enhances the quality of life through true walkabilty, open space and diversity. A new urbanism community is much like the Law of the Indies in that they both plan a community to:

  • Promote walking and biking to live, play and work
  • Create street patterns that reduce traffic congestion
  • Preserve the use of open spaces in a suburban setting
