ABAG presented the second annual Growing Smarter Together Awards during its Spring 2008 General Assembly on Thursday, April 24, 2008, in San Francisco. “These regional Growing Smarter Together awards are significant because they recognize innovative approaches and significant achievements of local governments, regional agencies, and residents collaborating to build complete communities to improve the quality of life in the Bay Area. They directly address the Bay Area’s regional challenges, showcase solutions, highlight outstanding individual leadership, and spotlight best practices that can be emulated regionwide,” Rose Jacobs Gibson, ABAG President and San Mateo County Supervisor, said during the General Assembly awards ceremony.
