Design
Center staff collaborated
on a Center for Rural Design project, to create a regional design strategy
for the future of the greater McGregor (MN) area. The project was based,
in part, on the Big Sandy Area Lake Watershed Management Project (BSALWMP)
mandate, "to
provide a local mechanism to encourage equal partnership among
all stakeholders." The
design strategy sought to achieve the sustainability goals outlined
in the Aitkin County comprehensive plan (2000), and reflected
residents' concerns for managed growth that will preserve the
McGregor area's current quality of life.
The Center for Rural Design is a research unit sponsored by the College of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (CALA), and the College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences (COAFES).
