This informative site isn't content to simply spell out the basic tenets of sustainable land use; instead, it offers users the accumulated wisdom of multiple smart-growth nonprofits and public-policy organizations. The site's "Key Principles" section -- with links to smart-growth guidelines from the National Governors' Association, the American Planning Association, and a variety of state planning organizations -- provides a snapshot of land use approaches at work throughout the U.S.

Also on the site, find educational materials, resources, and reports, as well as software tools for more effective land use planning and community development. Success stories are organized by strategy, such as growth control or brownfield development. Also find information on civic participation and links to local building codes and ordinances.
