The Smarter Growth Alliance is made up by member organizations along with Preservation Maryland to discuss issues that affect Howard County.
Representatives of each organization are invited to monthly meetings to discuss in detail local issues and new legislation. Testimony is given to the County Council often in the form of a sign on letter with a position taken on legislation. Each group will individually decide to sign on to each letter.

The Smarter Growth Alliance for Howard County embraces differences in age, color, disability, sex, ethnicity, race, religion, and other characteristics that make this County a unique and vibrant place to live. We seek and achieve a broad representation of experiences, perspectives, opinions and cultures while valuing inclusiveness as an essential source of vitality and strength for the county. In the pursuit of diversity and inclusion, we recognize that environmental burdens and benefits have not been distributed equitably, and we address these disparities so that each of us can prosper in a healthy and livable Howard County.
