The Individual – People First Freedom to Choose - Communities should be designed to make the healthy and environmentally responsible choice the easy choice. Equity - Decision-makers should focus on the well-being of all people who may be impacted directly or indirectly by a transportation or land use decision. Civic Engagement - Residents and employers should be educated and empowered to make informed planning decisions. Economy - Public investments should support increased prosperity and quality of place for all citizens. Guiding Principles
The Community – Neighborhoods Worth Caring About Freedom to Choose - Neighborhood and community plans should lead to more complete neighborhoods served by attractive, complete streets and a choice of transportation modes. Equity - Marginalized communities disproportionately impacted by poor transportation choices should be prioritized for infrastructure improvements that enhance access while preserving affordability. Opportunity- Since transit-oriented, multi-family housing is likely to be the dominant growth form in the future, local governments should seize this opportunity to provide a diversity of housing, a mix of destinations, and excellent transportation options. Economy - New development should lead to local job creation and improving the safety of the community. Guiding Principles
The Region – Think Locally, Plan Regionally Equity - Regional transportation projects should support local efforts to extend opportunity and healthy environments to people of all means, ages, and abilities. Freedom to Choose - The region’s transportation spending strategy should focus less on short-term congestion relief and more on providing long-term alternatives to driving. Fiscal Responsibility - Regional transportation decisions should account for all costs and benefits, acknowledge long-term consequences, and maximize return on investment. Health - Improving public health should be a pillar of all regional projects, policies, and programs. Environment - All regional initiatives should ensure progress toward a cleaner environment, preservation of open space, and lower greenhouse gas emissions. Guiding Principles
Overarching Goals • Champion human-scale land use, transportation, and placemaking strategies in the San Diego region. • Connect neighborhoods and people with a multi-modal transportation network that is appealing, convenient, and safe. • Promote increased funding and policies that support active transportation and healthy, sustainable neighborhoods.
