76: The Only Way Is Up

Whether we like it or not, the topic of urban growth is all the rage, with boundaries needing expansion and residential living quarters going vertical. The idea is to go up and not out, to protect more of what our community thrives off of; the forests and open lands surrounding cities. Our Friday Point hosts ask some direct questions and challenge city councilors to continue the conversation.
