Past event

On Tuesday, March 11 at 7 PM community planner and author Julie Campoli will be speaking at the Hinesburg Town Hall on the subject of planning your community. Julie is the author of several books on the topic of community making and her most recent book, "Made for Walking" was published in early 2013. Her earlier works include "Visualizing Density" and "Above and Beyond".

For twenty-five years Julie has practiced land planning and urban design in the state of Vermont, working with non-profits, municipalities and state agencies to steer growth into a more efficient and contextual pattern. Her planning firm, Terra Firma Urban Design specializes in street design and site planning for affordable housing, emphasizing the infilling of existing neighborhoods. More recently, her work has focused on building flood resiliency in riverside downtowns.

Ms. Campoli's research on land settlement patterns has been supported by the National Endowment for the Arts, the Graham Foundation, and the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, where she has served on the faculty. Julie studied American Literature at Middlebury College, Landscape Architecture at Cornell University, and was a 2009-2010 Loeb Fellow at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design.

Sponsored by the Hinesburg Village Steering Committee, it is hoped that Ms. Campoli's talk may help clarify our community's priorities regarding the quality of design and growthin the coming decades.
