California 2020
A diverse group of civic leaders, environmentalists, business leaders, planners, affordable housing advocates, and builders, covened by the ULI San Francisco District Concil, has prepared a draft paper setting forth goals and principals for improving quality of life in California through responsible land use decision-making. The draft, entitled "California 2020" outlines growth challenges and proposes a set of high-priority actions. Please view a copy of California 2020.
TOD MarketPlace
Connecting Developers and Cities to Transit-Oriented Development.
First launched in September 2006, the annual TOD MarketPlace brings city officials and developers together around transit-oriented plans and development opportunities. Over the next decade, the Bay Area will spend over $10 billion in transit investments. We have created a one-day intensive forum for exchange of best practices and TOD-plans feedback sessions. We co-sponsor the TOD MarketPlace with the Metropolitan Transportation Commission, the Association of Bay Area Governments, Reconnecting America and the Non-Profit Housing Association of Northern California.
To see materials from the September 2007 and 2006 TOD MarketPlace, please see this link. The 2007 Final Report is available here.
If you are an established ULI member and would like to serve on a city feedback session at the 2008 TOD MarketPlace please contact: Kate White, ULI San Francisco Executive Director at http://ulisf.migcom.com/kwhite@uli.org or 415/490-4441.
