The purpose of this workshop is to gather public input from residents about where and how we should invest in land, transportation, water, environment, and other long-range planning issues. By attending a workshop your ideas and opinions help influence the how we plan for the future of northeastern Illinois and we can't do it without you! This region is expected to grow by 2.8 million new residents, in order to accommodate that growth our region has some urgent decisions to make in the very near future.
· Should rapid growth outward continue?
· Or should we consolidate housing and jobs where infrastructure already exists?
· Should we emphasize road or transit--invest in both?
· How can we reduce energy use while also strengthening our region's economy?
We can't solve everything at once, so it's all about trade-offs. The Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) invites you to have your say at a GO TO 2040 Invent the Future workshop. With interactive software and keypad polling, attendees will express preferences about real-world choices that will shape the GO TO 2040 plan -- and the future of our region.
Pre-registration is appreciated by not required, contact Joey-Lin Silberhorn at 312-386-8814 or jsilberhorn@cmap.illinois.gov or add the event to your calendar. For more information, visit www.goto2040.org, where you can learn more, create more scenarios, and send them to your friends via email, Facebook, or other social networking sites.
