Realtors Offer Free Smart Growth Course to County Officials

The Maryland Association of Realtors (MAR) is offering a free continuing education (CE) course on Smart Growth to real estate professionals, builders, county officials (elected and non-elected), and community advocates.  From the MAR website announcement:

FREE 3 Hour CE – Limited Opportunity! Smart Growth for the 21st Century

Thanks to a grant from the National Association of REALTORS®, MAR is pleased to present a FREE, 3-hour seminar on defining, valuing and demanding smarter growth within your communities and, ultimately, throughout Maryland.  (YES! FREE CE credit available – professional enhancement credits, Course #665.)  Nationally known instructor, John Rosshirt will present the course.

Smart growth focuses on the existing assets of the community, the long-run implications of various development patterns, and their fiscal impacts. The bottom line:  some ways of growing are MORE sustainable than others.

Whether you are a real estate industry professional, new to leadership, an elected-official, and/or active in your community planning process, this course gives you better insight into the state-of-art community planning concepts and real-world ideas in making communities a better place in which to work and live!

The course will take place on October 26 at MAR (200 Harry S Truman Parkway, Annapolis, MD 21401).
