    Thanks to all who worked hard on putting together the Draft Urban Standards for Excellence! Great document! I’m excited for next week.

    Standard 3: “Be a Community Asset” really got me thinking . . . In the introduction it talks about how the “Service must lend its support, skills, services, resources, and expertise in natural resource…[Read more]
