Better Models for Development in the Shenandoah Valley illustrates the economic, aesthetic and environmental advantages of choosing smart growth over conventional haphazard development. Each section of the publication illustrates through photos and diagrams what better development looks like.

This handbook provides many examples of communities already using the principles for Better Development and directs readers to resources that can help them implement the recommended practices in their own community.
