Existen marcadas disparidades en la calidad del aire entre las comunidades de California, e incluso dentro de los límites de la ciudad de San Leandro.

Con el apoyo de la Junta de Recursos del Aire de California y el Distrito de gestión de la calidad del aire del Área de la Bahía, San Leandro 2050 está explorando cómo las personas que viven en vecindarios con baja calidad del aire ven las futuras amenazas del cambio climático.

​

Buscamos amplificar las voces de los residentes que viven en vecindarios donde la contaminación del aire contribuye a tasas desproporcionadamente altas de problemas de salud, como asma, enfermedades cardiovasculares y bajo peso al nacer.

WHAT WE HEARD FROM RESIDENTS

OUR ROADMAP FOR ACHIEVING SAFE BIKING & WALKING

STRATEGY

Build a Bike Network

    • What are the grant funding opportunities we need to pursue to get the bike network constructed?

    • What are the priorities of bike lanes we’ll be applying to grant funding (sequencing and order)

    • Commit 20 % of San Leandro’s BB transportation budget to assist bicycle network construction.  Current % ~2% and develop list of upcoming planning and implementation grants for Bikes.

  • Hire a full-time transportation planner who writes competitive grants, i.e., ATP (among other things)
