Mapping the Impacts of Economic Development Incentives (Smart Growth series at NBM)

From email:

Greg LeRoy, Executive Director of Good Jobs First, will discuss results from three unique studies mapping the geographic distribution of 5,000 economic development incentives deals in Michigan, Minnesota and Illinois. The data helps to analyze the land use and social equity implications. Finding that they early contribute to Sprawl, the studies conclude with promising policy innovations from a few states that begin to integrate economic development with land use planning.
