For some interesting and thought-provoking reading about the future of small towns, let me recommend an article by John Wilbanks in Planetizen, “a public-interest information exchange provided by Urban Insight for the urban planning, design, and development community.”
An introductory paragraph about the article says, “John Wilbanks demonstrates that the adaptation of city-centered growth tools to small town planning exercises is not only possible, but preferable, as he recommends strategies for acting regionally, while planning locally for small town sustainability.”
