Why is redevelopment of a Brownfield important?
It is vital that we reuse our brownfields to preserve our undeveloped land and our quality of life. Brownfield development generally saves money on infrastructure development because they are typically served by public infrastructure, and dont require costly road improvements. Cleaning up and reinvesting in these properties takes development pressures off of undeveloped, open land, and both improves and protects the environment. Brownfields are in nearly every community. BROWNFIELDS REDEVELOPMENT is SMARTGROWTH AND SMART FOR CONNECTICUT.
