1 Building Green into Complete Streets in the City of Lancaster, PA Karl Graybill, AICP, City of Lancaster Cindy McCormick, PE, PTOE, McCormick Taylor MASITE Annual Meeting King of Prussia, PA October 5, 2015
2 About the City of Lancaster Incorporated in 1742 Temporary National Capital during the Revolution Historic building stock (median home 100 years old) Surrounded by some of the most productive non-irrigated farmland in the U.S. ~60,000 residents in the 2010 census 7.34 square miles ~8,000 persons/square mile
3 Problem Source-USEPA Lancaster is one of about 770 cities nationwide with a combined sewer system, which releases about 1 billion gallons of untreated wastewater into the Conestoga River when overwhelmed during intense rainstorms. 518 miles of streets and alleys 110 miles city streets 11 miles state streets 572 total alleys 464 common alleys Cartway width: feet ROW width: feet Streets designed for cars
4 45% Combined Sewers 55% MS4
5 What We Are Doing Incorporating Green Infrastructure and Complete Streets concepts into plans, ordinances and codes Implementing Projects that integrate GI and Complete Streets Article VII. Design and Improvement Standards Public streets. A. General street arrangement. The following design consideration shall be applied to all new streets within a subdivision and/or development plan. (1) Classifications; widths. (a) Street classifications and maximum widths (in feet) for new and reconstructed streets: Street Cartway Travel Parking Bike Lane(s) Sidewalk Planting Total Type Width and turn Stall Strip and ROW Lanes Curb Width Alley NA NA Local foot lanes 7.5 Shared lane markings 4/side 4.5/side 50 Collector foot lanes 8/side 6 feet; 1 per direction of travel 4/side 5/side 66 Arterial minor 1 Arterial Varies /side 6 feet; 1 per 4/side 5/side 68 foot lanes direction of travel; or /side 4/side 5/side 80 feet with foot travel minimum 1 lanes, 1- foot painted 10 center or physical turn barrier buffer Determined by state and federal government Note: 1. Sidewalks on collector and minor arterial streets may be widened to a maximum of 8 feet to accommodate high pedestrian traffic in the vicinity of shopping and service facilities, schools, recreation areas, community facilities, and other highvolume generators of pedestrian traffic. In the event sidewalks are widened to accommodate increased pedestrian traffic, the total ROW width may be increased accordingly. (2) Right-of-way widths, determined by the combination of the components shown above, may be increased by the Planning Commission in consideration of the following: anticipated average daily vehicle trips generated by and through the project area, truck traffic, municipal maintenance and public safety needs, on-street parking demand, pedestrian safety, accessibility for persons with disabilities, mass transit needs, bicycle lanes, landscape areas, snow removal impacts, required utility easements or continuation of adjacent development patterns. (3) Streets shall be logically related to the topography so as to produce reasonable grades, satisfactory drainage and suitable building sites and shall have horizontal and vertical alignments in accordance with Subsections C and D below.
6 Complete streets are designed and built for all users including pedestrians, bicyclists and transit passengers of all ages and abilities, as well as trucks, buses, emergency vehicles, and automobiles.... connected and create a comprehensive, integrated network for all modes.... both new and retrofit projects.
7 Green Infrastructure is technologies that replicate and restore the natural hydrologic cycle and reduce the volume of stormwater entering the sewer system by: o Infiltrate o Evaporate o Transpire o Capture and reuse rainfall
8 2010 Green Infrastructure Plan Key Plan Recommendations To provide more livable, sustainable neighborhoods for City residents and reduce combined sewer overflows and nutrient loads 1. Implement a comprehensive demonstration program a) Review existing CIPs b) GI Funding for Private 2. Implement policy actions a) Revise details and specs b) Revise Stormwater Ordinance for Redevelopment c) Stormwater Utility 3. Conduct extensive partnering and outreach 4. Develop technical tools/studies to support GI a) Models / Project Tracking, etc.

59 A Stormwater Utility is being implemented to provide a Dedicated Funding Source Benefits Equity: fees are determined based on amount of impervious area Reduces reliance on general fund Stable and reliable funding source Policy Considerations were weighed by the GIAC All properties pay since it is considered a fee (similar to water and sewer bills) Level of Service Tiered Billing approach Credits can be provided for a property s on-site treatment of impervious area.
60 Lessons Learned / Keys to Success Garner political or high level leadership support early in process Start the public education or setting the stage from the get go MESSAGE, MESSAGE, MESSAGE test the messaging and hone as you proceed. Lead by example NOT do as I say, not as I (don t) do! Use stakeholders from all affected rate paying classes and geographical representation on a GI advisory group Use demonstration projects to rally neighbors around the issues and garner their support of the overall program Figure out your funding strategies; use the GI to leverage other funding; and stretch the limited dollars and resources that we all face INTEGRATED INFRASTRUCTURE Grants, grants, grants! Do NOT underestimate the value of educating the public throughout the process
