LIVABLE COMMUNITY DISCUSSION
Think about Ruth & Franklin’s (2014) discussion of the juxtaposition between the concepts of livability and sustainability. We know that the chief difference is the tension between the present and the future.
Based on the readings, describe in at least 200 words what is the best approach to take when considering how to approach achieving livability and sustainability as a public administrator?
Include in your response an analysis of two to three challenges that exist to achieving livability and sustainability.
Be sure to reference the Week 1 readings in your response.
Provide feedback on your peers’ suggested approaches using the Week 1 readings to support your position. Indicate how your peers’ approaches compared to your own.
