Its creation had been championed by the Santa Clara County Rose Society, which subsequently provided the roses for the new land given by the city. In the early 2000s, city budget cuts impacted the garden, which led to the All American Rose Society (AARS) placing its status on probation due to poor maintenance conditions. In 2007 Friends of the San Jose Rose Garden (FSJRG) was established, a volunteer nonprofit organization whose mission was to restore and renovate the garden. In 2008 the AARS lifted the garden from probation and restored full accreditation, and the following year over 800 new roses were planted as part of the restoration project. On May 2, 2009 it was rededicated as an official AARS test garden, one of 23 in the US and the only one in Northern California. On December 15, 2009 the restoration of the San Jose Municipal Rose Garden was nationally recognized on the Corporation for National and Community Service website. On August 12, 2010 the AARS named it "America's Best Rose Garden", in the first nationwide contest of its kind. The winning garden was selected based on beauty, creativity, and community involvement. The Garden is very popular for weddings and in FY 18/19 hosted 36 events. Although the garden has one designated full time staff, it could not operate without the efforts of FSJRG. Volunteers put in over 4000 hours per year on maintenance of rose beds and roses.

  • Transport Infrastructure Development Performance
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Engineering 178 ( 2017 ) 319 – 329 16th Conference on Reliability and Statistics in Transportation and Communication, RelStat’2016, 19-22 October, 2016, Riga, Latvia Transport Infrastructure Development Performance Oksana Skorobogatova, Irina Kuzmina-Merlino* Transport and Telecommunication Institute, 1 Lomonosova str., Riga, LV-1019, Latvia Abstract Transport infrastructure is an integral part of the transport system of any city or state. In connection with the development of society and intensification of international relations due to the globalization processes, the importance of transport as a factor for economic and social development has enhanced. Various aspects of the activities related to the development of transport infrastructure have increasingly become the objects of scientific researches. Transportation as an economic factor is a measure of economic activity and at the same time transportation is a reflection of economic activity. So, the questions about transport infrastructure performance measurement and relationship between transport infrastructure and economic growth are the subjects for discussions in both academic and non-academic circles. This paper highlights the role of the transportation industry in economic development of Latvia, describes the concept of transport infrastructure as an important part of the state transport system, and estimates the employed international approaches to the measurement of performance of transport infrastructure development. The article focuses on the necessity for the development of the methodology of measuring the transport infrastructure performance, that should be applied systematically and that would be generally helpful to all responsible people making transportation-related decisions. © 20172017 The The Authors.

  • Appendix C: Streetscape and Pedestrian Realm Needs
    Appendix C: Streetscape and Pedestrian Realm Needs Date: February 10, 2017 To: Brent Pearse, VTA Cc: Carrie Modi, Fehr & Peers From: Thomas Kronemeyer and Deepak Sohane, Community Design + Architecture Re: Story-Keyes Complete Streets Study: Streetscape and Pedestrian Needs Assessment Memorandum This memorandum summarizes findings regarding the streetscape character and pedestrian needs along the Story-Keyes Corridor. The extent to which sidewalks provide space for pedestrian travel and activities associated with adjacent uses as well as a pedestrian environment that feels comfortable and safe can be best studied by mapping and assessing several key characteristics, such as sidewalk width and potential sidewalk width; continuity of sidewalks; sidewalk obstructions and driveways that may have implications for the compliance with ADA requirements; the presence of buffers between pedestrian travel areas and moving roadway traffic; the presence of street trees and light fixtures (pedestrian and roadway); as well as the presence of pedestrian connections between corridor sidewalks and commercial/retail uses setback from the street. Results from the assessment of existing streetscape characteristics and pedestrian realm needs will help to determine and conceptualize complete streets solutions that enhance the quality and comfort of the pedestrian experience along the Story-Keyes Corridor. CORRIDOR SEGMENTATION Because of the diversity of conditions, the memorandum is organized to describe the streetscape and pedestrian realm needs for each of eight segments along the length of the Corridor. These segments have been identified based on differences between the segments that exist in the organization, type, and overall scale (parcel size) of land uses. Table 1 below lists the eight corridor segments that have been identified.

    ARTS COMMISSION: 5-21-18 ITEM: v. i.C. i CITY OF c a SANjOSE______________ Memorandum CAPITAL OF SILICON VALLEY TO: ARTS COMMISSION FROM: Kerry Adams Hapner SUBJECT: PROPOSED FY 2018-2019 DATE: May 8, 2018 FESTIVAL, PARADE & CELEBRATION GRANT AWARDS Approved DatC /-jcy JC, <9o/s RECOMMENDATION Recommend that the City Council approve the proposed FY 2018-2019 Festival, Parade and Celebration Grant awards specified in Attachment A and subject to the availability of funds appropriated in the City's FY 2018-2019 Operating Budget. BACKGROUND Through the Office of Cultural Affairs (OCA), the City of San Jose provides a limited number of Festival, Parade & Celebration Grant (FPC) awards each year in order to expand access for all City residents to a wide range of cultural experiences in the form of community festivals, parades and celebrations, large and small. These events are often held in public spaces and are always open to the entire public. Most FPC-supported events have free attendance, although a few have fee- based admission to some parts of or the entire event. In various ways, these festivals contribute to the City’s cultural enrichment and economic enhancement, and they help to promote the City to visitors. As noted in the guidelines, FPC funding is granted through a competitive process. Applications are weighed each year by a review panel for their responsiveness to the evaluation criteria published in the program information booklet. ANALYSIS The panel met on March 1 - 2, 2018 to complete its evaluation and was impressed by the overall quality and quantity of cultural offerings in San Jose.

  • Why Is Infrastructure Important? 23
    Why Is Infrastructure David Alan Aschauer* As the decade of the 1990s begins, new challenges present them- selves to the citizenry of the United States. Among the most important are concerns about the environment, economic productivity, and inter- national competitiveness, and a rearrangement of standing strategic military relationships. Our future quality of life, economic prosperity, and security depend crucially on how we choose to meet these new challenges. The apparent failure of the communist economic system and the associated relaxation of Cold War tensions offer the potential for a significant reallocation of the nation’s resources from military to other uses. A crucial question then arises whether these resources should be channeled to the private sector, effecting overall government expendi- ture reduction, or kept within the public sector, thereby inducing an alteration in the composition of government spending. The first direction, expenditure reduction, certainly has merit to a broad class of individuals. Many would point to the fact that total federal government outlays, expressed relative to gross national product, rose from 14.8 percent in 1950 to 21.6 percent in 1980 and, in 1989, to 21.8 percent. Others would point to the persistence of federal budget deficits. To both groups, expenditure reduction would be of benefit to economic performance, either by reducing the overall scale of govern- ment activity in the economy or by allowing a reduction in interest rates and an expansion in domestic investment activity. *Formerly Senior Economist, Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, and now Elmer W. Campbell Professor of Economics, Bates College. 22 David Alan Aschauer But the second direction, expenditure reorientation, may also have merit.
