Books by Rick (Planning Consultant Pruetz

For 10 years Pruetz explored communities that excel in saving their natural environment. Here, he captures the character of places from the volcanic range near downtown Albuquerque to Minneapolis s Grand Rounds park system, to farmland improbably preserved on Long Island. The longtime city planner of Burbank, California, Pruetz creates detailed reports that mark the trail for planners, commissioners, and citizens who seek to preserve the green legacy in their own backyards.
