| The Issue:
ASLA has developed legislation to create a national pilot
initiative to support small community visioning efforts. The
community visioning process provides planning and design assistance
to communities, helping them identify needs, set goals, envision
designs, and develop conceptual plans to implement a shared
vision for the future. The program is based upon well-developed
programs currently managed primarily by land grant colleges
and other entities with participation from private sector
professionals. This approach would augment these programs
and make resources available to provide similar services in
other regions of the country. ASLA is asking members of Congress
to sponsor this legislation as part of the 2007 Farm Bill.
