Now is the time to build for the future of Laguna Beach-- No more keeping us down with the status quo!
I recently read some suggested talking points from the group Streets for all Seattle and thought they made sense for us (with a few tweaks). Any new public investments in our city transportation planning should make Laguna Beach:
1. Healthy by promoting active transportation options;
2. Affordable by not making automobile-ownership a prerequisite for mobility;
3. Vibrant by providing an aesthetic village atmosphere for businesses and community interaction to thrive from new accessibility;
4. Equitable by ensuring that our transportation system works for everyone – young and old, able-bodied and disabled, rich and poor;
5. Environmentally-responsible by helping to protect our oceans, canyons and lowering overall carbon emissions.
