  • Decatur's Transportation Network, 2007
    3 • Decatur’s Transportation Network, 2007 CHAPTER • 3 Decatur’s Transportation Network, 2007 othing speaks louder of a city’s transportation system than how its residents use it. A public survey conducted as part of the CTP revealed that sixty-seven N percent of commuters drive alone to get to work or school. Over 20 percent of commuters in Decatur either walk, bike or take transit. Even more interesting, 79 percent of residents reported having walked or ridden a bike to downtown Decatur. Additionally, the majority of residents feel that it is easy to get around the City. These results indicate a system that already provides a lot of choice for travelers. The following sections detail the extent of these choices, i.e. the facilities that make up the existing Decatur transportation network. The CTP uses this snapshot of how Decatur gets around in 2007 to recommend how the City can build upon its existing strengths to realize its vision of a healthy and well-connected community. Existing Street Network Streets are where it all comes together for travel in and through Decatur. The streets and their edges provide places for people to walk, bicycle and travel in buses and other vehicles. Compared with the MARTA rail system and off-road paths and greenways, the street system in Decatur accommodates the majority of travel and is detailed below. Roadway Classification in Decatur In 1974, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) published the manual Highway Functional Classification - Concepts, Criteria and Procedures. The manual was revised in 1989 and forms the basis of this roadway classification inventory.

  • ABBC 2016 Annual Report
    IMPACT FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE ANNUAL REPORT 2016 ATLANTA BETTER BUILDINGS CHALLENGE One of my proudest accomplishments as Mayor of Atlanta is the tremendous success achieved through the Atlanta Better Buildings Challenge (ABBC). The Office of Resilience has partnered with businesses and nonprofit organizations to implement a comprehensive, voluntary program to increase energy and water efficiency in our building stock. The Atlanta Better Buildings Challenge invites participating building owners to commit to a 20 percent reduction in energy and water use by year 2020. With more than 114 million square feet of building space and more than 600 buildings pledged, Atlanta has earned its spot as a leader on the efficiency scoreboard. Since 2011, this successful public-private partnership between the City of Atlanta, Central Atlanta Progress, Livable Buckhead, Midtown Alliance and Southface has positioned Atlanta as a national leader in energy and water efficiency. We surpassed our water reduction goal five years ahead of schedule, and we’re quickly closing the gap on our energy goal, having already reduced our portfolio’s energy consumption by 17 percent. Through the Atlanta Better Buildings Challenge, participants are saving money on bills now, while helping to ensure a more resilient future for all Atlantans. This program plays a pivotal role in furthering Atlanta as a top-tier city for sustainability. We hope to inspire other cities by our achievements and lead by example as we continue to make big strides in reducing our energy and water usage. Thanks to our participants in the Challenge. Sincerely, Mayor Kasim Reed INTRODUCTION | 03 IMPROVING THE EFFICIENCY OF OUR BUILDINGS 20 PERCENT BY 2020 The goal of the Department of Energy’s Better Buildings Resource conservation efforts not only support the City’s Challenge is to improve the efficiency of commercial, sustainability efforts and lead to a cleaner and healthier institutional, industrial, and multifamily buildings by 20% or place to live and work, but the dollar savings achieved more by 2020.

    Proposal 10-YEAR UPDATE FOR THE Chamblee Town Center Livable Centers Initiative RFP NO. 2013-DD001 Submitted to: CITY OF CHAMBLEE, GA Submitted by: May 2013 10-YEAR UPDATE FOR THE Chamblee Town Center Livable Centers Initiative Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. P 817 West Peachtree Street, NW P The Biltmore, Suite 601 P Atlanta, GA 30308 P (404) 419-8700 May 13, 2013 Niles Ford, Ph.D., City Manager City of Chamblee, GA 5468 Peachtree Road Chamblee, GA 30341 Dear Dr. Ford: Downtown Chamblee is a hidden gem situated in the heart of the Atlanta metropolitan region. Chamblee has a quaint character rich with history and poised for enhancement and growth. Chamblee was built, in part, on its combination of transportation assets. Freight, regional rail, air travel, and major vehicular routes all pass directly through the center of the community. Since Chamblee’s original LCI Plan in 2000, you have invested in the Town Center, helping new retail and residential developments come alive. The area has added residential units, small retail outlets, a large commercial shopping area, and streetscape enhancements to improve walkability. These investments have set the stage for private investment and community improvement. Over the last five years, private sector investment and development became stagnant as a casualty of the recession. With significant shifts in the regional marketplace, this LCI update will provide the City of Chamblee with an opportunity to clarify and augment its community goals and priorities and to envision and encourage appropriate infill development. Additionally, the plan will prioritize public investments to enhance the area’s character, connectivity, and accessibility.
