The map above illustrates "that if current growth policies continue, the amount of developed land in Central Florida will double by 2050.... City boundaries will meld into one another, with little distinction or "green space" between developed areas," according to conclusions reached by MyRegion.org in it's groundbreaking planning document, "How Shall We Grow?"
The organization's 2009 progress report, "Where in the World are We?" suggests that many counties, including Osceola County have moved in the right direction to implement the vision for a better tomorrow.
The residents and leadership of the seven county area known as Central Florida prefer an approach to preserve the area's precious resources, open space and rural countryside by concentrating development in urban centers with transportation corridors, as Destiny will do.
The following map illustrates the vision adopted by Central Florida that incorporates the 4C's:
- Conservation
- Countryside
- Centers
- Corridors
America's First Eco-Sustainable City™ is located in an area specifically designated by the planning documents and embraces the 4C's.

Four C's -- a paragon for progress! Thanks for the enlightening info.
The 4 C's for eco-sustainability (conservation, countryside, centers, corridors) seem to sagely incorporate the four C's for community marketing (content, context, continuity, connectivity). Clever. And enlightening. Thanks for the post!
