The decisions made about where we build, what we build and how we build literally becomes the community in which we live, is it any wonder debates can become heated when discussing these issues. Our organization is dedicated to fostering a shared understanding about growth and development. This understanding helps lead to consensus-building, a key element to responsible development. Defining what is “good growth” versus “bad growth” depends on who you are talking to; appeasing every person’s opinion is impossible. What is possible is the opportunity to see new perspectives, to collaborate, and to engage in healthy debate which leads to livable, vibrant places. The Volusia County Association for Responsible Development and its Flagler County Chapter is a not-for-profit dedicated to affecting positive outcomes for the development in our community.
