Emphasis on the importance of trees in Sacramento dates back to its founding in 1849. In the late 1970s and the 1980s, Sacramento’s urban forestry program was recognized for its beautiful tree canopy and partnerships; today, our urban forest is rated as one of the top ten in the country.In August 2016, the City adopted comprehensive updates to the City Code to update and clarify its tree regulations. During the process of revising the city’s tree related ordinances, additional policy issues were raised regarding the City’s urban forest and its future. Sacramento is currently covered by 12,198 acres (19.1%) of tree canopy, including trees and woody shrubs. The City’s updated Urban Forest Master Plan will address the protection, maintenance, sustainability, and enhancement of Sacramento’s tree canopy. | 495234 | 2016 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-121.494, 38.5816]} | 2020-05-01T04:07:06.200 | ||||||||

The main objective was to reduce the risk of WNv infection to the public, while minimizing environmental impacts. This program was updated in 2019 to include adaptive and more ecologically-sound management tools. Adult mosquito monitoring for WNv is unchanged from the original program. A grid of 16 adult mosquito traps are placed around the city and monitored weekly from late June through mid-September to determine the numbers of Culex mosquitoes and samples are tested for WNv to estimate the risk to the public. In addition, community education is essential to reducing WNv infection and the numbers of the mosquitoes that have the potential to transmit WNv and other diseases.The city monitors potential mosquito breeding sites for vector mosquito larvae throughout the WNv season (May through September). Sites are treated with the larvicide Bti (Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis) when Culex or vector larvae density reaches a threshold. Based on recent peer-reviewed study, the primary drivers for WNv human cases in Colorado are drought and human immunity. An epidemic has not occurred since 2003 and this study predicts that although human cases will continue to occur, it should not reach epidemic levels. Staff will carefully monitor WNv activity, human cases and be ready to respond with public outreach and education if human cases begin to rise. | Finance secured | 258000 | 258000 | Local | https://bouldercolorado.gov/ipm/mosquito-control-program https://www-static.bouldercolorado.gov/docs/west-nile-virus-mosquito-management-plan-1-201305221026.pdf?_ga=2.81872400.7226164.1557152915-1865843188.1539968573 | 108507 | 2017 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-105.252, 40.0274]} | 2020-05-01T04:07:31.380 | |

Static data implies mapping of sliding susceptibility and boundary values of critical precipitation. Dynamic data imply predicting precipitation in real time, based on an appropriate meteorological model, with displaying data in GIS. The model of weathering slip forecasts should also result in a mapping of the time probability in the GIS of the corresponding resolution. It is planned to develop a model that will allow data updating several times a day in order to obtain a sliding probability forecast for 24 hours in advance in the form of a qualitative description of the slip hazard, eg "very low", "low", "medium", " high "and" very high "with data visualization via the web application module, with the option of upgrading the early warning system. The goal is to create a dynamic forecast for 24 hours in advance, with daily updating of data, accessible via the Internet via the portal and the application "MojZagreb" for the mountainous and mountainous areas of the City of Zagreb. | Pre-feasibility study status | 66666 | Local | 802762 | 2017 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[15.9819, 45.815]} | 2020-05-01T04:07:31.380 | ||||

Se trata de actualizar esta planificación, elaborada en la década de los 60, y que desarrolló un gran avance en su ejecución a partir de los 90. Sin embargo, con la incorporación de datos de lluvia posterior a la considerada originalmente, se estima que las infraestructuras existentes se encuentran en un 15% por debajo de los requerimientos. Frente a este panorama el incremento de las precipitaciones y los fenómenos hidrometeorológicos cada vez más intensos, se apunta a implementar un conjunto de medidas y dispositivos que buscan, por un lado, reducir los caudales por medio de: o Infiltración: Aumento de las áreas verdes, pavimento o veredas porosas, pozos de infiltración que faciliten el paso del agua en la superficie hacia a las napas, etc.o Almacenamientos: Sistemas de captación y almacenamiento de agua que podrían instalarse en diferentes lugares y de diversos tamaños (pocos grandes en espacio público o muchos chicos en viviendas, galpones o veredas).Y por otro lado, el desarrollo de más obras que aumenten la capacidad de evacuación de la ciudad:o Nuevos emisarios: Se apunta a agregar emisarios en zonas de expansión (donde no existían) y a la eliminación de las zanjas (drenajes pluviales a cielo abierto). En los casos de los emisarios existentes, se busca el mantenimiento de los mismos y optimizarlos para obtener un mejor funcionamiento de los mismos. | Pre-feasibility study status | (Sub)national | 982137 | 2014 | 2020-05-01T04:07:31.380 | ||||||

Our region has no access to the sea, but receives the waters of the rivers from the Andes. The damage was intense and some permanent. In 2015, the largest flood in the history of our state was recorded, where 98% of the population of the city center was displaced because their homes were submerged. Most of the neighborhoods were flooded, homes and public buildings were submerged and had their structures compromised or even destroyed by the force of the water. We had no access to communication via internet, telephone and no electricity for 15 days. The municipality was in a state of isolation, as the bridges that give access to the municipality were flooded, and the access was made with small boats, which was restricted to emergency cases. After this episode, the city center suffered a large evasion, as the banks, shops, public sectors and even residents settled in the upper part of the city, leaving the center almost without operation, and since we took over management in the In 2017, we are fighting hard for the revitalization of the public spaces of the city center, for their active permanence, maintaining the functioning of the Executive Branch and some secretariats in this neighborhood.Even after these environmental catastrophes have occurred and the severity of the damage, we are working tirelessly to restructure our city. But so far, no project has been prepared for this reconstruction, and the measures taken are restricted only to the elaboration of schedules for the execution of the actions of minor repairs and improvements of the most affected areas of the municipality. Our city is dependent on Federal Government transfers and Parliamentary Amendments, and the source of our own resources is insufficient due to the amount of our population, since the main activities of our city is agriculture and livestock. | Pre-feasibility study status | 0 | 0 | Local | 25848 | 2018 | 2020-05-01T04:07:31.380 | ||||

The council receives between 10 and 15 applications per month to start a Kebun Kita (Our Farm) programme in various neighbourhoods, The council will only approve the applications after thorough vetting, which includes looking into whether there is an active residents group in that area and the project’s sustainability. The pioneer gardens are located in Section 10 Kota Damansara, Kampung Lindungan, PJS 6 and Taman Medan. It will soon be expanded to Desa Mentari. There are 18 “active” gardens in Petaling Jaya, with five more expected to be added in 2020. The size of each garden varies, with the present ones ranging from 120sq m to 2,000sq m. Unused or vacant land, such as utility or government land (subject to certain conditions), are turned into these community gardens. A community keen on participating has to first get an approval letter from the site’s landowner. For example, if the proposed site is on Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB) reserve land, the community has to get approval from TNB who is the land owner. After receiving the landowner’s approval, the community has to submit an application to Petaling Jaya City Council, via their registered residents association, stating the proposed location and agricultural activities. Officers from the Landscape Department will then conduct a site visit to check on the site’s suitability and soil conditions. Basically, the community had to use their own funds for their Kebun Kita project, such as preparing the site or buying gardening tools, seeds, soil and fertilizers. The Landscape Department’s role is only to give technical advice and basic training whenever needed. Funding can be acquired through either their respective residents association, corporate social responsibility contributions or MBPJ’s PJ SEED (Social, Environment, Economy Development) community grant. Furthermore, the community also has the freedom to plant vegetables, fruits or herbs, or even rear fish such as keli, puyu and pink tilapia using aquaponic tanks. They are also free to decide how to distribute the produce --- whether for personal consumption or to sell. One of the best project is the Section 8 PPR Flats community where the residents allocate some produce for a soup kitchen project to feed poor families in their neighborhood. The Taman Medan community’s vegetable crops and fish are used for residents’ consumption, while the balance is sold. Additionally, the Kebun Kita communities were required to submit monthly reports on their activities, harvest inventories and sales (if any) for the Landscape Department to monitor the programme’s development through data collection and annual assessment.Kebun Kita is in fact a rebranding of an earlier programme and run with the assistance of related government agencies as well as non-governmental organisations (NGO). The contributions from NGOs vary. They include monetary, in-kind (tools or seedlings) and community engagement gotong-royong activities). Kebun Kita had won awards such as Malaysia Landscape ArchitectureAwards 2018 and 2019, Selangor Research and Development and Innovation Expo 2019, and World Town Planning Day 2018 and 2019. The local council presented the Kebun Kita at a Basic Urban Farming Programme for Urban B40 Group organised by Selangor socioeconomic empowerment, development and caring government committee chairman V. Ganabatirau’s team in collaboration with MBPJ. The one-day event was aimed at educating the more than 100 participants on the basics of urban farming and agriculture, and offering them an opportunity to earn an income to support their families. At its launch, Ganabatirau said it offered one of the best platforms in guiding and offering knowledge to the urban B40 community. | Finance secured | 40000 | 20000 | Local | https://www.thestar.com.my/metro/metro-news/2019/11/15/gardens-of-opportunities | 658611 | 2010 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[101.595, 3.1279]} | 2020-05-01T04:07:31.380 | |
