Subject | Do more to reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) |
Comment |
This plan does not do enough to reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT). In order to enable reduced driving, the Climate Change plan must require city and county governments to promote smart growth and more affordable housing. Dispersed land use patterns are costing Californians dearly, not only in gasoline but in our quality of life. Compact development with a mix of housing choices near jobs will enable Californians to drive less, spend less, breathe cleaner air, and spend more time with our families and contributing to our communities. This plan bows too much to entrenched interests in city and county government who oppose compact development and affordable housing. It must be revised so that communities provide more choices allowing people to live closer to jobs and other amenities. |
