3 BACKGROUND. It all started with a literature search by the Mill Valley Affordable Housing Committee to find a GSI method that would enable its new Housing Element to promote income inclusion so the town would not go gated. HUD/DOT/EPA SIX LIVABILITY PRINCIPLES 1. Provide more transportation choices 2. Promote equitable, affordable housing 3. Enhance economic competitiveness 4. Support existing communities 5.

32 California Supreme Court Sierra Club Vs. Orange County Ruling widespread and devastating to the public's right to know The ramifications of removing GIS parcel data from the public domain are far-reaching and may cause unanticipated consequences the public effect of exempting this data from the Public Records Act (PRA), may be widespread and devastating to the public's right to know the operations of all its government agencies

33 California Supreme Court Sierra Club Vs. Orange County Ruling checks against the arbitrary exercise of official power Implicit in the democratic process is the notion that government should be accountable for its actions In order to verify accountability, individuals must have access to government files Such access permits checks against the arbitrary exercise of official power and secrecy in the political process

34 California Supreme Court Sierra Club Vs. Orange County Ruling writings of public agencies shall be open to public scrutiny In adopting the Public Records Act (PRA), the Legislature declared that The people have the right of access to information concerning the conduct of the people s business, and therefore, the writings of public officials and agencies shall be open to public scrutiny

37 CLIMATE CHANGE REVERSED!? SUSTAINBLE COMMUNITIES / EQUITABLE COMMUNITIES SUCCESSFUL Remember when the War on Climate Change was won by just establishing broad consensus on just 3 messages INDUSTRY Invest in the cores and corridor and make a killing LOCAL GOVERNMENT Fast track highly walkable deals near transit with most liberal treatment to max investment attractiveness supported by a SC/EC National Parcel Layer With the Court Ruling as Club and IAAO findings as Carrot, universal open records follows, expediting development process THE AMERICAN PEOPLE Change what people want to believe from it is good that the three income groups live 30 miles apart to it is good that we are all back together again

38 CLIMATE CHANGE REVERSED!? SUSTAINBLE COMMUNITIES / EQUITABLE COMMUNITIES SUCCESSFUL In a discussion with Fred Vogler, MarinMap Manager, we discovered together that this approach holds the possibility of government getting out of the alternative site business which are typically seen only as targets for NIMBY zeal. Instead, government gets more into the information dissemination business, enabling market have its way with us, in this case, incrementally for the better, toward a, drive less, less traffic, lower carbon footprint settlement pattern. PREDICTION: Sustainable Communities will happen one deal at a time, on one parcel at a time, MILLIONS OF TIMES!
