  6. Project initiated out of interest in connections between built environment and health Funded by Blue Cross and Blue Shield Takes advantage of 2008 legislative deadline for metropolitan area comprehensive plans Built on work by Design Center/Active Communities Transportation (ACT) Research Group examining active living and food environments—adds a range of other issues July 2006 through June 2008 Separate grants given to technical assistance provider and to 19 cities/counties Design for Health Project Overview

  7. Design for Health Project Participants

  8. Accessibility Air quality Climate change Environmental and housing quality Food Health facility access Mental health Noise Physical activity Safety Social capital Water quality Design for Health Core Health Topics Metropolitan Design Center

  9. Design for Health Connecting Planning and Health • Planning affects numerous health issues • Comprehensive planning represents an opportunity to address health • Plan implementation can further address health • Zoning ordinances • Design guidelines • Capital improvements Carissa Schively Slotterback

  10. Metropolitan Council Requirements 2008 Topics Accessibility Air Quality Environmental and Housing Quality Food Mental Health Physical Activity Social Capital Safety (crime & traffic) Water Quality Design for Health Land Use Plan Future land use Housing plan Resource Protection Transportation Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) Allocation Highway & roads plan Bike & pedestrian plan Special traffic situations Transit plan for facilities & service Aviation Plan Water Resources Wastewater & sewer plan Surface water management plan Water supply plan Parks & Open Space Regional parks and open space Optional Elements

  11. Health in Planning Policy Connecting Planning and Health • Four general approaches (Morris 2007) • Comprehensive plan update • Corrective/Selective Amendments • Revised Codes or Ordinances • Separate Health- related Plans Carissa Schively Slotterback

  12. Events—talks, feedback sessions, boot camps Research summaries (key questions)— summarize fast-moving and contradictory evidence Informationsheets—model planning and ordinance language/cases Case studies of existing plans Health impact assessments—three planning-oriented tools Image resources and PPTs Planning and health links Plan review checklists One-on-one technical assistance Web site Design for Health Design for Health Activities and Tools Carissa Schively Slotterback

  13. Design for Health Health Impact Assessment • Developed HIA tools tailored to planners • Preliminary Assessment (checklist) • Rapid Assessment (participatory workshop) • Threshold Analysis (comprehensive) • Detailed guidebooks and training workshops assist planners in using tools

  14. HIA: Carver County • Preliminary Checklist • Assesses significance of project, plan, or policy in terms of its size and scope • Considers whether certain health thresholds are met Carissa Schively Slotterback

  15. Preliminary Checklist Abbreviated review of proposed transloading facility in response to citizen petition for environmental review Helped identify key health concerns with project Will likely do rapid assessment if project moves forward HIA: Carver County

  16. Workshop-based health impact assessment for proposed bicycle trail in powerline corridor Worked with existing advisory committee Identified and evaluated potential health impacts Results integrated into Alternative Transportation Plan HIA: Bloomington

  17. Most detailed HIA tool Uses evidence-based measures to assess health impacts Used by Ramsey to evaluate existing conditions to inform comprehensive plan update HIA: Ramsey

  18. 40.3 % are within 400 m of a trail (49.32 % w/in 600 m)

  19. HIA: Ramsey Current achievements, health goals, and policy directions (how to get there)

  20. Plan: Marshall • City of Marshall, in rural Minnesota • Prepared Pedestrian and Bikeway Plan: A Safe and Healthy Marshall • The lens of health highlighted issues such as access to food and parks

  21. Included public health element in 2030 Comprehensive Plan Update Significant health content in other parts of plan – Land Use, Parks and Trails, Aging, Transportation Planning process engaged planning and public health staff Plan: Carver County

  22. Goals and strategies related to physical activity, social equity, mental health, air quality, water quality, food access, general access, and environment/housing

  23. Site planning guidelines to implement comprehensive plan Address numerous health issues Implementation: Eden Prairie
