CitiesSpeak - Northeast Central Durham Livability Initiative

"Over the last couple years, the definition of livability created by the HUD-DOT-EPA’s Partnership for Sustainable Communities has become well known to those of us in the “city business.” ... They’re hard at work in cities like Durham, N.C., building livable communities from the bottom up, with support from the Partnership, of course.  The Northeast Central Durham (NECD) Livability Initiative is adding value to the livability discussion by placing citizens right where they belong—at the foundation of the community’s livability planning efforts.  In doing so, the initiative is using livability planning as a vehicle with which to establish a more engaged citizenry and a more inclusive community."
