Synopsis

Excerpt from Town Planning, Vol. 10: A Program of Civic Preparedness for Vermont Communities

Wise improvements are nevera burden upon any community, but extravagance is without excuse. The municipal corporation, like the private corporation, must be guided by the saving grace of common sense.

The Psychology of Accomplishment. Lack of civic imagination is the greatest obstacle in the way of well ordered Vermont communities. It is difficult for any one of us to visualize the possible results of planning. But the experience of other states shows that when a city or town is planned, that of itself supplies an incentive to growth. The plan tends to hold people, too, they will work. For their community and be con tented. No greater civic stimulus can be applied to the citizens than to hold before them a chart showing the possibilities of the future. This psychological factor cannot be ignored.
