How We Work
Idaho Smart Growth's strategic plan provides long term guidance and annual plans provide specific objectives and tasks to meet our long term goals. Each year, we work with more than a dozen different communities throughout the state of Idaho, including places like Nampa, Idaho Falls, Lewiston, Coeur d'Alene, Homedale, Potlatch, American Falls, and Mountain Home.
Our work generally falls into 4 project areas, described below.
