On December 6, 2011, CTLCV hosted its 12th Annual Environmental Summit in downtown Hartford, with over 200 people in attendance. The overarching message that our state can still have environmental excellence in a time of economic constraint was reinforced throughout the day. We have long understood that there is no "either/or" choice between the economy and the environment, and that public, private and non-profit interests are all stakeholders.
The Summit included a panel on "Transportation, The Environment and The Economy" with Peter Malkin, President of Malkin Holdings, LLC, Sue Merrow, Chair of 1000 Friends of CT, DOT Commissioner Jim Redeker and DECD Commissioner Catherine Smith, moderated by Joe McGee, Business Council of Fairfield County. Thought provoking discussion delved into a range of relevant issues such as transit oriented development and bike/pedestrian initiatives. Hartford Courant columnist, Rick Green highlighted this panel in his article the next day. Click here to read it!
