1 Local/Regional Coordination on Green Infrastructure Sustainability Stewards Workshop May 10, 2016
2 Green infrastructure is an interconnected system of natural areas and open space that conserves ecosystem values, helps sustain clean air and water, and provides benefits to people and wildlife. Green infrastructure strategies and related benefits extend well beyond stormwater harvesting and mitigation. Tree canopy cover offers temperature and air quality benefits; greenways provide alternative transportation, opportunities for physical activity, and stress reduction, and a comfortable and desirable public realm improves urban vitality.
3
4 Local governments can implement a wide range of green infrastructure actions including low impact development (LID) methods, multi-purpose neighborhood and regional water management, and the promotion of habitat patch and ecological connectivity through urban forestry, agriculture, public spaces, and natural resource conservation planning.
5 NatureScape Water Reuse Urban Forest native plants, no reclaimed water source tree canopy Dark Sky - Urban Light Pollution Local Fresh Food food deserts Natural Lands trees make you nicer Sea Turtles lighting violations Clean Energy solar, wind, electric cars Coastal Habitats vegetated dunes Water Recharge storage, percolation, and bio-swales
6 The Plan: (for each green initiative) What do we measure? How do we set goals? How can we compare Cities? Now what?

16 STAR Goal Green Infrastructure: Natural Lands, Parks & Greenways Demonstrate that 35% of the jurisdiction s land has protected vegetated surfaces performing at a minimum 2 of the following functions: localized cooling through tree canopy cover, green roofs or green walls; Water management through wetlands, stream buffers, and permeable surfaces; Recreation through parks and/or greenways. or Demonstrate that 85% of the population lives within a ½-mile walk distance of green infrastructure features, listed above.
