  • Fire Safety in the Changing Urban Landscape
    Fire Safety in the Changing Urban Landscape Carl D. Wren, P.E. Austin Fire Department Emergency Prevention Division Austin, Texas New Urbanism & The Fire Service • November 2007 - CNU initiated contact with fire service personnel to request a dialog about fire code provisions impacting street design. • Interest in dialogue concerning street design and emergency vehicle access • Rocky Start – distrust, battle wounds, project disappointments, real or imagined slights • Though not extensive as in 2008 and 2009, hopefully the dialogue is continuing. New Urbanism & The Fire Service • New Urbanism has several goals and this list is not comprehensive and is not intended to imply representation of this interest group. These points are based on the presenter’s understanding of New Urbanism and its goals. • Reduced street widths in order to create more walkable, bike friendly, and sustainable communities. • Reduction in the pace of urban expansion by creating greater density in urban cores. New Urbanism & The Fire Service • Reductions in, or limiting of the creation of new, impervious cover within existing and new developments. • Reduced traffic speeds with improvements in traffic pattern effectiveness by the design and use of narrower street sections along with improvements in connectivity. • Maintaining or improving fire and life safety by reducing traffic injuries and deaths along with improving in-situ fire safety features. New Urbanism & The Fire Service • Communications is essential in working with developers and planners desiring to use new urbanist community design techniques. • Apparatus turning radii need to be accounted for in new street designs and restructuring of existing streets. • Mixing new urbanist approaches with that used in traditional neighborhood development can cause problems – narrow streets without adequate turning radii and/or connectivity.

  • 2003-III-13 Research Director
    behavior research center’s Latino Poll NEWS RELEASE Contact: Earl de Berge LTLP 2003-III-13 Research Director DEMOCRAT LATINO VOTERS IN ARIZONA FAVOR WESLEY CLARK. HOWARD DEAN AND JOE LIEBERMAN CLOSE BEHIND Phoenix, Arizona, October 2, 2003. Half of registered Latino Democrats in Arizona have a preference for who they will support in the upcoming Democratic presidential primary in Arizona. And, while Howard Dean and Joe Lieberman are close on the tail of Wesley Clark, Clark is ahead despite only recently entering the race. Among those with a preference, Clark has 25 percent of the Latino vote, a six-point lead over Howard Dean who is at 19 percent and eight points ahead of Joe Lieberman, who claims third place with 17 percent. Dick Gephardt is in fourth place with 14 percent of the vote, while John Edwards attracts roughly ten percent. Further behind is John Kerry at six percent. At the bottom with less than five percent each are Bob Graham, Al Sharpton, Dennis Kucinich and Carol Mosely Braun. The strength of Wesley Clark is impressive considering he has only been in the race a few weeks and his number one position among Latino voters may be a reflection of the generally conservative and the patriotic/pro-military profile of many Latino voters. At the same time, the fact that 48 percent of Arizona’s Latino voters remain uncommitted suggests with months of campaigning ahead, the outcome is anything but certain. Not all Latino voters are Democrats and each year the proportions are shifting gradually toward the GOP.
