The Citizens’ Congress II was the most
recent Blueprint Houston forum* for the community to express
its vision of Houston’s future. The challenge: How can
Houston grow at its current rate and protect its quality of
life? At Congress II, five hundred Houstonians:
- First discussed the advantages and disadvantages
of 3 scenarios of Houston with 3.5 million more people
and
- Then voted on their policy preferences regarding
the five primary building blocks that underlie the
3 scenarios.
