East Bakersfield
Recommendations to Improve Pedestrian & Bicycle Safety for the Community of East Bakersfield October 2017 Recommendations to Improve Pedestrian & Bicycle Safety for the Community of East Bakersfield By Austin Hall, Tony Dang, Wendy Ortiz, California Walks; Jill Cooper, Katherine Chen, Ana Lopez, UC Berkeley Safe Transportation Research & Education Center (SafeTREC) Introduction At the invitation of the Kern County Department of Public Health, the University of California at Berkeley’s Safe Transportation Research and Education Center (SafeTREC) and California Walks (Cal Walks) facilitated a community-driven pedestrian and bicycle safety action-planning workshop in East Bakersfield to improve pedestrian safety, bicycle safety, walkability, and bikeability across the East Bakersfield community. Prior to the workshop, Cal Walks staff conducted an in-person site visit on Friday, July 14, 2017, to adapt the Community Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Training program curriculum to meet the local communities’ needs and to provide context-sensitive example strategies for the community’s existing conditions. Cal Walks facilitated the workshop on August 22, 2017, which consisted of: 1) an overview of multidisciplinary approaches to improve pedestrian and bicycle safety; 2) three walkability and bikeability assessments along three routes; and 3) small group action-planning discussions to facilitate the development of community-prioritized recommendations to inform East Bakersfield’s active transportation efforts. This report summarizes the workshop proceedings, as well as ideas identified during the process and recommendations for pedestrian and bicycle safety projects, policies, and programs. Background Community Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Training Program The Community Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Training (CPBST) program is a joint project of UC Berkeley SafeTREC and Cal Walks. -
April 8, 2021 the Honorable Toni Atkins the Honorable Anthony
April 8, 2021 The Honorable Toni Atkins The Honorable Anthony Rendon Senate Pro Tempore Assembly Speaker State Capitol State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Sacramento, CA 95814 The Honorable Nancy Skinner The Honorable Phil Ting Chair, Senate Budget Committee Chair, Assembly Budget Committee State Capitol State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear President Pro Tempore Atkins, Speaker Rendon and Budget Chairs Skinner and Ting, We appreciate your willingness to meet with us, and to continue your partnership with the mayors of our largest cities in finding pragmatic solutions to address our state’s homelessness crisis. Given the scale of the challenge we collectively face, and because of the extraordinary opportunity created by two unique circumstances--the passage of the American Rescue Plan and the state’s budget surplus--we write to revisit our prior budget request. As you know, we have long believed that the state must identify an ongoing, consistent allocation of flexible funding sufficient to meet the enormity of the challenge in our cities for affordable housing construction and supportive services. While our economic challenges make it difficult to identify an ongoing revenue source, the large amount of one-time funding presents a generational opportunity to make a dramatic move to address our homelessness crisis. That can be accomplished by setting aside a one-time allocation of $16 billion for a steady expenditure of $4 billion per year over the next four years. Through our partnership, we’ve accomplished much in our cities in recent years through such initiatives as Project Homekey, HHAP, and HEAP. We created permanent or transitional housing for our homeless at an average cost to the state of $148,000 per unit under Project Homekey, for instance, and we built prefabricated dorms, modular housing, tiny homes, and shelters even more cost-effectively with state and local dollars. -

CHAPTER 5 STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS – VERSION 5 CHAPTER 5 STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS INTRODUCTION This chapter sets forth plans of action for the region to pursue and meet identified transportation needs and issues. Planned investments are consistent with the goals and policies of the plan, the Sustainable Community Strategy element (see chapter 4) and must be financially constrained. These projects are listed in the Constrained Program of Projects (Table 5-1) and are modeled in the Air Quality Conformity Analysis. The 2014 Regional Transportation Plan promotes Forecast modeling methods in this Regional Transportation a more efficient transportation Plan primarily use the “market-based approach” based on demographic data and economic trends (see chapter 3). The system that calls for fully forecast modeling was used to analyze the strategic funding alternative investments in the combined action elements found in this transportation modes, while chapter.. emphasizing transportation demand and transporation Alternative scenarios are not addressed in this document; they are, however, addressed and analyzed for their system management feasibility and impacts in the Environmental Impact Report approaches for new highway prepared for the 2014 Regional Transportation Plan, as capacity. required by the California Environmental Quality Act (State CEQA Guidelines Sections 15126(f) and 15126.6(a)).

Senate Bill 5 – Housing -- Request for Signature
September 16, 2019 Governor Gavin Newsom State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Re: Senate Bill 5 – Housing -- Request for Signature Dear Governor Newsom: On behalf of a broad coalition of labor, local government, housing advocates, and business leaders, we ask that you sign Senate Bill 5 (Beall, McGuire, Portantino). SB 5 is the only legislation passed this year that will immediately result in housing being built, particularly for low-income families and those on the brink of homelessness. Senate Bill 5 would create the Affordable Housing and Community Development Program to provide cities and counties the resources they need to help fund the construction of affordable housing, including rental housing, available to very low, low and moderate-income families. This bill would stimulate housing for those particularly vulnerable to homelessness. There is not nearly enough affordable rental housing available to low- and very- low income households. More than 2.2 million extremely low-income and very low-income renter households are competing for only 664,000 affordable rental homes. That leaves more than 1.5 million of California’s lowest-income families without access to housing. SB 5 would tap into the resources of the State and create a state-local partnership to provide ongoing and sustainable funding to local governments to increase the stock of affordable housing. You are to be commended for providing hundreds of millions of dollars in this year’s state budget to help local governments plan for more housing, build emergency shelters and provide services for the homeless. While these one-time revenues are important, we need a dedicated program and ongoing funding to help attack these problems over the long-term. -
