15 The 5 keys to local success: 1. Partnerships, Strategy & Programming. 2. Representation (all levels). 3. Planning/Design/Policy. 4. Adoption (all levels). 5. Funding and Implementation.
16 1. Partnerships, Strategy & Programming Partnerships: the Necessary Three. Elected Officials. Municipal staff. Engaging Advocates.
17 1. Partnerships, Strategy & Programming Strategy: Identify gaps in this Partnership Trifecta and political dynamic, and meet the needs of those gaps. Possible gaps: historically under-engaged people, grassroots or in positions of power opponents in positions of power, who can be influenced
18 1. Partnerships, Strategy & Programming: Programming IF strategy is to engage more, THEN what? Bring issue to neighborhood meetings, on their agenda Bring issue to conferences of new potential partners Other ideas? IF strategy is to meet opposition with influence, THEN what? Power map: who can influence them, and where should you focus energies? What are best places for issue education?
19 Health Document Health Benefits 43 percent of people with safe places to walk within 10 minutes of home met recommended activity levels; among those without safe places to walk just 27 percent met the recommendation. Residents are 65 percent more likely to walk in a neighborhood with sidewalks.
20 Document Econ. Benefits Economics 1. The average American household spends an entire 3 months pay on transportation % of the US population living in poverty do not own a vehicle. 7% of SC s households do not own a vehicle. 13% of SC s households of color do not own a vehicle. 3. For the price of 1 mile of a 4-lane urban highway (~$50 million), hundreds of miles of pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure can be built to complete an entire network of active transportation facilities for a mid-sized city. 4. Construction jobs increase by 20% when retrofitting vs. creating new roads. Per $1 million spent, bike lanes 14.4 jobs, bike boulevards 11.7 jobs, pedestrian projects 11.3 jobs, road repairs and upgrades 7.4 jobs, road resurfacing 6.8 jobs. 5. The entire 2,250-mile East Cost Greenway bike route network could be upgraded for one-fifth the cost of a highway bridge. 6. In Traveler s Rest, the Swamp Rabbit Trail and Main Street revitalization resulted in more than thirty (30) new businesses with a total investment in excess of $8 million 7. Property Values rise in most every instance of more walking, bicycling, and shared sidepath installation.
