Smart Growth/Smart Energy

Smart Growth/Smart Energy is a course designed to introduce real estate professionals to the various concepts included in the Massachusetts Smart Growth/Smart Energy initiative. While recognizing that zoning regulations are managed by each individual community, the Commonwealth encourages communities to adopt and implement these smart growth/smart energy measures in order to realize the many environmental, fiscal, and social benefits of smarter energy and smarter land use.
