Ep. 2 - When Growth Outpaces Planning
Built for Tomorrow
What do you do when your community’s growing faster than your zoning code can keep up? When permits pile up, tempers run high, and your five-year plan starts feeling like a museum piece?
In this episode, we dig into the chaos of “unexpected growth” and how smart cities hit pause without hitting the panic button. From phantom infrastructure strain to burnout-proofing your staff, we talk strategy, sanity, and how a well-timed reset can turn disorder into momentum.
This isn’t about slamming the brakes. It’s about relearning how to drive.
