What tickled readers' fancies last month? Well, one was Top Posts - September 2010 which, while virtually guaranteeing the return of this feature each month, didn't seem appropriate for inclusion in this list since it's not actually an October story! So, enjoy the list of the top five most viewed actual October stories:
#5 Four the Future - October 8 Four stories about energy: upgrades for the federal buildings downtown courtesy of the stimulus act, solar panels return to the White House roof, wind in Missoula, and utility-scale solar in California.
#3 (tie) Four the Future - October 15 We used to build dams, now we're tearing them down, but now we have beavers to build dams! And, we used to dump pollutants into the rivers, now we're trying to get them out, but now we have sewer plants to pollute again!
#3 (tie) Four the Future - October 28 Four foodies stories: chickens come home to roost in the Spokane Valley council chambers, underutilized properties being converted into food and community activity, lots of new restaurants being launched, and more diabetes on the way.
#2 Four the Future - October 1 Starting the month off with a high note! Millwood considering speed bumps, light rail produces jobs, slime mold designing transportation networks, and a "Goldilocks" planet discovered inspiring thoughts about human rights.
#1 Synopsis: Planning Theory for Practitioners The main points of Michael Brooks' book trying to bridge the gap between planning theory and practice which proposes a strategy for making planning more effective.
