What we’re about
Strong Towns is a national movement of ordinary citizens that are pushing for changes in how our city operates. It focuses on how cities can make smart, incremental changes to improve infrastructure, zoning, and financial health. By rethinking the way we design our cities and invest in development, we can create places that are more walkable, safe, and fiscally responsible—not just for today but for generations to come.
In Bowling Green, this means taking action on issues like infrastructure improvements, zoning reform, and smarter tax policies. Some potential projects could be as simple as organizing community trash pickups, adding signs to sidewalks, moving benches to bus stops, or engaging in tactical urbanism projects that bring quick, creative improvements to public spaces. Our group will also advocate for larger efforts like zoning reform to encourage small businesses and more housing options, as well as tax reform to create a more sustainable future for Bowling Green.
