2013 – 2015 Dinner Forums

The Growing Your Local Economy series of dinner forums provide an opportunity for local decision-makers in the San Joaquin Valley to discuss challenges and hear about innovative solutions related to transportation, community design, and land use planning to advance economic growth, fiscal strength and public health. Participants hear from expert speakers and exchange ideas, examples, and resources with each other to promote local growth on a sound fiscal footing.
