Transit forum elicits ideas, advice on how city’s future might take shape

Before speaking Friday to about 80 people at a forum at the Radisson Hotel on “transit-oriented development,” Renne wandered around downtown. He told those gathered at the “Transit New London” forum that he would definitely want to live in New London.
