ivins Inspired joins the strong towns WASHCO coalition
Why Strong Towns?
The Strong Towns Approach:
We believe that Ivins grows stronger when we focus on substantive, incremental, and community-driven change. Instead of relying on massive, high-risk projects, we follow a simple Public Investment Process:
- Observe where people in Ivins are struggling to navigate their daily lives.
- Identify the smallest thing we can do right now to address that struggle.
- Act on it immediately.
- Repeat.
Putting Ideas into Action
By being part of the Strong Towns coalition, we bring proven strategies to our backyard, such as:
- Safety in Art: Our Ivins-specific crosswalk projects that use public art to slow traffic and protect pedestrians.
- Bus Shelters with Benches: Installing shelters and seating that make waiting for the bus safer and more comfortable for Ivins residents.
- Neighborhood Walks: Collaborative tours of our streets to identify simple ways to improve walkability.
- Kind Collaboration: A commitment to non-partisan, respectful dialogue that builds common ground among all residents.
Think of it like a community trail: we don't wait years for a massive highway budget. We find the muddy patches in our town and fix them today, ensuring our path forward is durable, useful, and built to last for generations.
