September Policy Hour: Article Discussion Club

We will be discussing 3 recent articles discussing transit and urbanism in our community. We encourage attendees to read the following articles:

We will discuss whether we agree with the premise of these articles, the merits of any proposals, as well as the context these articles were written for.
