Sustainable Development Impact Meetings, New York, USA 19 - 23 September
U.S. Department of Agriculture USDA Rural Development RD Under Secretary Xochitl Torres Small departs from Siesta Shores Water Control and Improvement District facility, where it was announced that the USDA is investing $102 million to expand access to housing and water infrastructure for socially disadvantaged rural people who live and work in 45 states and American Samoa, during a visit to Siesta Shores and Falcon Lake in Zapata Co., TX, on Dec 16, 2022. The 263 projects in which USDA invests will create economic opportunities and improve the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in rural America.
The investments are part of the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to ensure that people living in rural America have equitable access to the infrastructure and economic opportunities they deserve.
“USDA invests in rural America because we know a strong community is rooted in its people,” Torres Small said. “Thanks to the leadership of President Biden, Vice President Harris, and Agriculture Secretary Vilsack, USDA can help invest in opportunity and prosperity for all people, regardless of background or financial status, who make up the character and personality of our great country’s rural lands.”
The Siesta Shores Water Control and Improvement District in Zapata County, Texas, receives a $1 million Emergency Community Water Assistance Grant to purchase a filter upgrade along with new raw water pumps and electrical wiring. It also will install six-inch raw water piping and fittings to reach the deeper parts of the community’s water source, Falcon Lake.
These investments are in addition to the recent expansion of the Rural Partners Network (RPN), which is central to President Biden’s commitment to ensure all rural people can benefit from federal resources. Led by USDA with support from more than 20 federal agencies and commissions, RPN is part of an all-of-government strategy to champion rural people and places, including Native American communities.
These programs are Water and Waste Disposal Grants to Alleviate Health Risks on Tribal Lands and Colonias, Appalachian Regional Commission Grants, Delta Health Care Grants, Socially Disadvantaged Groups Grants, Housing Preservation Grants, Rural Community Development Initiative Grants, Tribal College Initiative Grants, Emergency Community Water Assistance Grants, Rural and Native Alaskan Village Grants, Water and Waste Disposal Loans and Grants and Community Facilities Disaster Grant Program.

Plans are currently underway to redevelop the third and last site at CFB Calgary: the 200-acre (80.9 hectare) Currie Barracks site in Calgary, Alberta. While still based on the principles of smart growth and sustainable community design, the vision for Currie Barracks will build on Canada Lands Company’s previous experience in Garrison Woods and Garrison Green to create an even denser community with a richer mix of land uses, housing types, and servicing innovations to achieve a more complete community.

I thought you might like to see what North Hertfordshire District Council considers to be good planning and design.
Where once there were nine three-bedroomed family-sized homes with mature gardens, 30 garages available to rent (in an area where on-road parking is severely restricted) and the smallest builder's yard in the universe, there are now 78 apartments and houses. The houses in the photo above are some of the so-called "social housing". The rest of the development is behind these houses.
Nice views, big lots, big homes. Where the money resides in Franklin County, VA. But then they have to drive forty miles or more to their high paying jobs in Roanoke, on a highway known for its tractor-trailer rig wrecks. So much for living in the country.

The historical origin of Proenca-a-Velha is closely related with the beginning of nationality, ie, development and policy support for recovery and settlement carried out by King Afonso Henriques in the process of growing need for geographical identification of the kingdom in the organization of its surrounding population.
Its history is directly linked with the history of Igaeditania important city in Roman times and turned in the sixth century an episcopal see. Its grandeur review the finding of a granite tablet dating back to the I. Thus it provides for its importance and its population, although weakened by the Muslim occupation but is strengthened in order to enhance the re-conquest settlement with a view to defending the territory, because this experience of war and taking into account the resulting devastation, the territory would be downright deserted.
Thus, in 1165 Proenca-a-velha is included in the vast land donated in the reign of King Alfonso I the Military Order of the Templars, in the person of Master Pais, in the service of the kings of Portugal in the process of Reconquista. However, due to the failure of several raids in the struggles, the Order is not fixed permanently in the territory, which led to his re-stocking in the year 1194 by real diligence and again under the protection of the Order of the Temple. However, it is in the thirteenth century under the jurisdiction of the same order, and after the territory was donated by D. Sancho I, the then Master of the Order D. Peter Alvites, receives Letter of Court dated April 1218 was the Christ (1256 era of Caesar), with consent of the King Afonso II. The Charter expresses essentially owned by Pratt to the Knights Templar, but also the opportunity to be resettled once previously off the Commander of the Egitania, Father Fernando Martin. This stocking is mainly based on the geographical location for the defense of the territory and the belief in the potential of Commander of the earth, and D. Alvites Peter Proenca aim reorganize in its present population and mainly targeting institutional growth.
So if officially Proença, ie, "OSCAR", a village with an existing name itself. This name will be the source word Provence, which is the province, was allegedly imported from the Frankish kingdom and brought the knights of the military orders, in this case the Templars, which had its headquarters and also for his work in these lands since its donation . So if called up to the sixteenth century was subsequently renamed the Proença-a-Velha to distinguish Proença-a-Nova, former Cortiçada.
The charter of 1218 came authenticate the freedoms and guarantees, such as the protection of residents, so that the village could grow in an organized manner, having their own courts for bail, towards the socio-economic development. In this document, the Master of the Order guarantee the settlers the same rights and duties of the inhabitants of Idanha-a-Nova, who has previously received Provincial and left the two villages under equal circumstances. If the duties were connected strictly with the war in enemy lands and to defend their land rights preserved the freedom of the individual as a villager in its relationship with neighboring peoples, and had rules aimed unity and integrity of family. Its economy was privileged because of exemptions in the forum, mainly tents, mills and furnaces. At the social level clerics, free forum, received the local taxes and the neighbors were exempted from Pratt to lodge against their will. Pratt offered its inhabitants enough benefits, whether economic, social and even in the agricultural and commercial property were unusual in the Kingdom, bearing in mind that legally and institutionally the town was governed by three authorities: the King, the Mayor and Judge. All these advantages imply a organized development in the socio-economic development, taking into account that the economic base of the population was without doubt the farming of cereal crops, mostly vegetables and olives.
Over the years, Pratt will be reaffirming the territorial context demonstrating the royal power that got through the confirmation of their privileges by D. Fernando and John I, although subject to Military Order of Christ, as the potential of the town in their economic aspects - social and administrative, or village members that attended the court (some even receiving donations of land by the king or privileges).
The growth of Pratt is recognized by the institutions (Castle, Church, Town Hall) and positions that offered (eg in terms of institutional and legal officers had royal and municipal clerk sisas and notary, in terms of trade had a sealer cloths ", in social terms, the clerk of orphans, etc ...).
Thus, to sustain all this orderly development of the village and local experience to adapt to the reality of the kingdom, D. Manuel I gave Provincial New to the village in dia 01 de Junho 1510. This document introduces some novelties in particular in terms of industry on the possession of weapons, in economic terms enter the town two notaries who would pay the royal farm an annual income and laws concerning land and cleared for farming. In agriculture, the cultivation of these lands (although paying a new tax that the Provincial Council) increased the production of goods and could only be grown if there were men, which contributed to the increase in population. For livestock, a legislator on the cattle pasture in the meadows of Pratt and taxes adjacent to them. Commercially, it refers to payment of tolls, or an exemption, and the variety of products marketed as the mode of transport and payment. Were exempt from tax on basic necessities, ie food and household goods that were traded in small quantities. Otherwise tax was due as expendable goods (luxury goods, perfumes, spices, Brazil wood, metals, building materials, livestock, vegetables, fruits, nuts, fish, slaves, etc ...). Excluding this tax would be only if the purchase was for personal use only and serve as raw material for application in varied works.
The only such taxes were exempted all the inhabitants of Pratt, but as those who resided here do not have to declare all their purchases to the official village.
Thus is confirmed the growth of the village until the early sixteenth century, having regard to its economic aspect.
Through the visitation held in Pratt on 13 March in the year 1496, which refers to data concerning the number of inhabitants, it reinforces the economic and social reality when one considers that this year at Pratt and his term live five hundred and twenty people. In the year 1505 the Colony inform us of the existence of 440 inhabitants in Pratt. In 1537 living in Pratt and expire 876 people. This population growth reflects the development of the town of Pratt.
From 1557 begins the decline of Pratt taking into account the political, social and economic translated into a consequent instability of the kingdom. There is thus the population variance seen in the town of Pratt, resulting in a gradual decrease. This decrease was directly related to the extinction of the status of municipality in the nineteenth century thus contributing to the decline of Proença-a-Velha.
Currently Proença-a-Velha and its people are a reflection of pride in the past, but also are characterized by their daily lives reflected in trust for a brighter future.

Proença-a-Velha é uma freguesia portuguesa do concelho de Idanha-a-Nova, com 57,75 km² de área e 282 habitantes (2001). Densidade: 4,9 hab/km². Foi vila e sede de concelho entre 1218 e 1836. Era constituído pelas freguesias da sede e de Aldeia de Santa Margarida. Tinha, em 1801, 934 habitantes.
Proença designa várias freguesias de Portugal e, escrito como Provença, refere-se também a Provence (designação medieval para região de França). Supõe-se, portanto, uma origem occitana das populações que vieram a criar estas aldeias, no tempo da reconquista cristã da região.

The demolishon and rebuilding and simaltaneous construction of the Mas'aa Corridors of the Holy Mosque in Makkah.
The ground and first floors of the current Mas'aa are sealed, the windows, doorways and exits are concreted. If I had seen what was going on on the outside, I would have had second thoughts about going inside this section of the Holy Mosque. I saw the massive construction work upon leaving the Holy Mosque.
