NC Wildlife Resources Commission's Green Growth Toolbox Workshop
Join us at the Pitt County Center to learn about regional conservation priorities and how to integrate conservation science, data, and other mapping tools into land use and transportation planning. The workshop will cover priority species and habitats for the coastal plain of North Carolina, conservation-based land use and transportation plans, effective conservation policies, ordinances, and incentives to encourage centralized growth patterns and avoid sprawl. Participants will be trained on the NC Natural Heritage Program Data Explorer and will practice interpreting conservation date through a hands-on exercise. The workshop also includes a field trip.
All our welcome - local and regional government planning staff, parks and recreation staff, advisory board members, elected officials, conservation professionals, and interested community members are all invited.

The workshop is free; refreshments will be provided but please bring your own lunch.
