La planificación urbana aseguró que este desarrollo se realice conservando y potenciando la calidad del espacio público comunal, por lo que Providencia ha sido y sigue siendo hoy una de las comunas con mejor calidad de vida en el contexto metropolitano.Dada su calidad urbana, su buena conectividad y su amplia oferta de educación, cultura, salud, comercio y servicios, la demanda por su espacio urbano es muy alta, generando un gran volumen de viajes vehiculares y peatonales, lo que se traduce en un uso muy intenso de su espacio público, así como en una alta congestión vehicular especialmente en las zonas comerciales.Para enfrentar esta situación, la comuna ha avanzado en temas de movilidad y espacio público, siendo también pionera en este ámbito: en Providencia se construyó la primera ciclovía de Santiago, en el parque Pocuro entre los años 1997 y 1999; en 2010 se implementó el primer plan comunal de ciclovías y el año 2017 se elaboró la primera versión del Plan de Movilidad y Espacio Público de Providencia, que ha guiado las intervenciones en el bien nacional de uso público (BNUP) en los últimos años, incorporando mejoras significativas, especialmente para los usuarios más vulnerables del espacio público, peatones y ciclistas. | ||

In New Jersey, the municipalities of Hoboken, Weehawken, and Jersey City were inundated by flood waters during Hurricane Sandy. During the course of the RBD competition, acomprehensive urban water strategy proposal was developed for the Hoboken and adjacent areas of Jersey City and Weehawken that included hard infrastructure and soft landscape for coastal defense (Resist), policy recommendations, guidelines and urban infrastructure to slow stormwater runoff (Delay), green and grey infrastructure improvements to allow for greater storage of excess rainwater (Store), and water pumps and alternative routes to support drainage (Discharge). This proposal was selected in the first round of RBD grants and HUD has awarded $230 million to the State of New Jersey for the “Hudson River Project: Resist, Delay, Store, Discharge” (the Project). The authorizing legislation established a September 2022 deadline for project completion and anticipated that most of the available funding will be allocated to support design andconstruction of “Resist” structures to reduce the flood risk from coastal storm surge within the project area. If funds remain after construction of the “Resist” barriers, then Delay, Store, Discharge (DSD) aspects of the Project may be funded. The scope of this Feasibility Study addresses the entire Project by considering the resiliency improvement concepts and visions proposed in the RBD competition and further developed through public outreach sessions performed in conjunction with a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) review for the project. It should be noted that the DEIS provides further detail relative to the public process, concept and alternative development approach and determination of the preferred alternative. The goal of the feasibility study is to develop a comprehensive master plan solution to reduce flood risk from coastal storm surge and rainfall events with recommendation for a feasible and a balanced “Resist” barrier solution that is acceptable to the community and within the available HUD funds. | |

Local, regional, and state efforts have become the cornerstone of climate action because national and international energypolicy and emissions reduction efforts are slowed and often stifled by policy, politics, and bureaucratic processes. Furthermore, local governments and communities are often in a better position to engage citizens and have an immediate and direct impact toward reducing GHG emissions.This climate action plan is specifically focused on mitigation. Climate mitigation is defined as efforts that reduce or prevent GHG emissions. Climate adaptation is defined as efforts that help the community prepare for and adjust to the current and future impacts of climate change. Although this plan does not specifically address climate adaptation, other efforts are being taken throughout the Eagle County community to prepare for the changing climate.Education and Outreach: Greater community awareness and understanding of climate change is needed so that people can participate in climate-friendly sustainable behaviors in their daily lives at home, at work, and throughout the community. Effective community engagement in climate action strategies requires partnerships between multiple sectors, targeted education and outreach methods, and continual evaluation of program successes.Residential Energy: Residential homes create 24% of the total GHG emissions generated in Eagle County. There is a signifi cant opportunityto reduce residential energy use with increased energy efficiency and conservation efforts. The Colorado State Demographer reports that of Eagle County’s 31,675 housing units (this fi gure does not include commercial lodging properties), 38% were considered “vacant” or unoccupied in 2014. Energy effi ciency retrofi ts from local programs, such as Energy Smart Colorado, can reduce a home’s energy use by 20-30% and save residents hundreds of dollars on their annual energy bills.Commercial Energy: Commercial buildings and facilities account for the top sources of GHG emissions in Eagle County. A large amount of energy waste occurs due to inefficient buildings, high energy demands, deferred maintenance, inattention to building performance, and inefficient behavior on the part of occupants. Given current advances in energy efficiency technology and financingprograms, there can be up to 40-60% reduction in building-generated GHGs (American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy, 2014). The commercial buildings that exist today will be inhabited into the foreseeable future; therefore, maximizing building efficiency will help ensure reduced energy demands well into the future.Transportation and Mobility: The majority of GHG emissions from transportation are generated from passenger vehicles. The Eagle Countycommunity faces a significant challenge due to Interstate-70 and the many vehicles that pass through the county. Nevertheless, significant improvements in local transportation, mobility systems, and infrastructure can reduce locally generated GHG emissions dramatically, while engaging residents and visitors in healthy climate-friendly lifestyles.Waste Management: The waste and landfill sector refers to methane GHG emissions that result from anaerobic decomposition of organic waste in the landfill. During the first 20 years after its release into the atmosphere, methane gas is 84 times more potent as a GHG than CO2. The 2015 Eagle Valley waste diversion rate was 19.6%, and the recycling rate was 26.9%. There is an effort at the national and state levels to transition away from disposal and towards materials management. The greatest positive impacts in this sector can be realized through reducing materials altogether through more sustainable purchasing practices.Energy Supply: In 2004, Colorado became the first state in the U.S. to create a renewable energy portfolio standard in order to reduce GHG emissions. As the primary provider of energy for buildings and commercial uses throughout the Eagle County community, member-owned utility Holy Cross Energy provides electricity and strives to be a conscientious steward of natural resources. Holy Cross Energy was a pioneer in Colorado, offering consumers the option of purchasing renewable energy to offset GHG emissions. Partnering with utilities, such as Holy Cross Energy, Xcel Energy, and Black Hills Energy, is key toward making large-scale energy supply transitions. | |

This plan serves as the foundation for understanding the risks posed by a changing climate and provides robust, effective, and equitable actions that will guide Eagle County, incuding Town of Vail, in reducing those risks and enhancing the long-term resilience of its communities. The plan addresses four major focus areas: infrastructure, health and wellness, the economy and tourism, and natural resources. Infrastructure: The critical infrastructure of Eagle County includes roads, resorts, and homes; it also consists of a complex system of transmission lines for energy, water storage and transport infrastructure, and natural systems, such as watersheds and rivers, that the County relies upon for services and community health. As Eagle County continues to grow, the demand on the complex interdependent infrastructure to provide water, electricity, transportation, and recreational and livelihood services will follow suit. The stress on this interdependent system will be exacerbated by both short-term climate- and weather-related events, such as wildfire and flooding, and longer-term climate events, such as changing peak snow runoff periods due to increasing average annual temperatures. Resilience strategies: Create redundant and resilient utility infrastructure with a focus on energy, water, and telecommunications; Foster and enhance coordination between organizations for pre- and post-disaster response; Ensure safe, effective, and equitable multi-modal evacuation strategies for the County; Enforce Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) policies, zoning laws, and regulations; and Facilitate flexible deployment of temporary housing post disaster.Health and Wellness: Cost of living, availability of affordable housing, and attainable health care services present a major challenge to many community members. The majority of jobs in Eagle County are service-related, most of which are linked to the tourism industry, which could be significantly impacted by climate change. The disparity in service sector wages in contrast to the cost of housing and other socioeconomic stressors may be a driver behind some mental and physical health problems in Eagle County. Compounding the challenges of providing opportunity for all community members to achieve an affordable high quality of life are the challenges of ensuring that community members remain safe in the face of climate-related dangers, including increased wildfire risk, increasing temperatures, and decreasing snowpack. Those living in frontline communities, in particular residents of mobile home parks, immigrant communities, and young children and older adults are the most susceptible to the effects of climate change and extreme weather events. Resilience Strategies: Build community equity, trust, and civic engagement; Ensure the health, safety, and well-being of all community residents, visitors, and workers during and after a disaster; Support frontline communities in preparing for and recovering from extreme weather events; Enhance community wellness by investing in social infrastructure and increasing community connectivity in neighborhoods; Increase public awareness of air quality impacts, monitoring, and response.Economy: The well-being and livelihoods of residents and the economy of Eagle County are deeply connected to the region’s abundant rivers and snow-capped mountains. Eagle County’s rivers and snowmelt runoff not only support farming and ranching but also a vibrant recreation economy in both the summer and winter months.The vitality and sustainability of Eagle County’s economy is closely tied to the region’s climate conditions. Resilience Strategies: Expand community engagement and education focused on behavior changes that enhance resilience and sustainability; Support the financial stability of frontline families and communities; Support affordable housing and living wages for all residents; Support the growth of a diverse economy.Natural Resources: More than 80% of Eagle County’s land is public and includes National Forests, wilderness areas, U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) properties, and state and local public lands. The mountains and valleys provide outstanding habitat for wildlife, and the health of the natural environment is inextricably connected to the strong sense of place and identity of Eagle County residents. Create wildfire resilient landscapes; Create resilient wildlife populations by maintaining healthy ecosystems and habitat connectivity; Adopt and enforce requirements that improve water quality and quantity; Encourage adoption of innovative indoor and outdoor water efficiency programs and strategies; Create a multi-jurisdictional program to develop and implement best management practices for post-fire recovery; Implement educational programs to encourage responsible use of resources and protect ecosystem health. | |

The CAP 2020 Update adds a new benchmark goal of a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 in addition to the 25% reduction by 2025 and 80% in 2050. Through a series of modeling activities and research, the CAP 2020 Update also highlights the top emissions reduction strategies for achieving these goals in each of the sector areas. These strategies include:Buildings: Beneficial electrification for 5% of existing residential and commercial buildings per year; Adopt above building code standards and incentives for new and remodeled commercial and residential buildings, and implement net-zero or all electric construction requirements by 2030 across all municipalities in Eagle County; and implement a benchmarking ordinance in Eagle County for all commercial buildings 10,000 sq feet or larger. Transportation & Mobility: 2% increase in electric vehicle penetration as a percentage of all registered vehicles per year; continue behavior change campaign to reduce single-occupancy vehicle commute trips 2 times per week by encouraging local businesses to provide smart commuting incentives and establish policies to promote multi-modal travel, flexible work schedules and remote work; and strive for 50% of the workforce to live within 5 miles of their employment center via mixed-use communtites, affordable community housing near job centers and intercommunity multi-modal transportation options,Energy Supply: Support goal of 100% renewable energy supply in the electric sector by 2030; Analyze and develop local renewable energy resources through waste to energy, methane capture, and anaerobic digestion; Consider heat waste utilization and renewable energy technology to power district scale snowmelt systems; and reduce methane leakage through natural gas system efficiency. Materials Management: Divert 80% of organics currently landfilled by 2030; Divert 100% of divertable construction and demolition waste from the landfill by 2030; Divert yard waste from landfill by 2030 through county-wide yard waste facilities; Divert cardboard from landfill. Carbon Sequestration : Pilot projects on open sapce using soil amendments to increase carbon sequestration; Incorporate soil health education to improve carbon sequestration and engage the commuity in stewardship; Promote regenerative agriculture to enhance soil health and carbon sequestration; Determine natural climate solutions plan to protect and enhance existing carbon stocks; Implement a Good Traveler carbon offset program at the Eagle County Regional Airport. The CAP 2020 Update also added carbon sequestration as a sector focus area and included water and wildfire reisiliency, all of which were not in the original plan. | |
