Please join us for a conversation on equitable transit-oriented communities (ETOC). Transit-oriented developments have been appearing more often in the news and have often focused on neighborhoods immediately adjacent to rail stations. Our speakers will explain the concept in more detail and answer questions from residents, such as the environmental impacts of transit-oriented developments and the potential implications on a community's affordable housing stock.

Speakers:

• David Kooris, President, Stamford Downtown

• Peter Harrison, Director, Desegregate CT

• Mark Barnhart, Director, Office of Community & Economic Development, Fairfield, CT

• Alyssa Norwood, Program Manager, Certificate & Innovation, Institute for Sustainable Energy at Eastern Connecticut State University
