RV 2015: Art, Community Culture and TOD: Four Stories by Abigail Thorne-LymanRail~Volution
This document discusses art policy issues and funding alternatives for BART. It provides background on why a new art policy is needed now, to enhance the rider experience and community identity. It examines the art programs of other transit agencies, finding that allocation percentages for art range from 0.5-1.5% of capital project budgets. Case studies show how different agencies fund staffing and programming. Examples are given of BART and other agency art projects and their associated budgets, ranging from $7,000 for a temporary performance to $350,000 for station art. The document suggests allowing art to happen organically and recording the results as one plan, and making small wins to demonstrate the benefits of public art.
During the National Regional Transportation Conference (June 2019, Columbus, OH), Randall Embry shared the Kentuckiana Planning and Development Agency's regional freight planning process and freight design guide.
This document outlines the agenda and goals for a focus group meeting held by the Seattle Department of Transportation. The meeting aimed to get public input on emerging micro-mobility technologies and how to integrate them into the transportation network. The agenda included introductions, a presentation on legislative intent and goals, a discussion of existing micro-mobility devices like e-scooters and hoverboards, an exercise to discuss benefits, drawbacks and management strategies, and next steps which included developing a report for City Council. Ground rules for the discussion emphasized respectful and understanding dialogue.

Developing in a Smart Growth Climate: A Developer’s Perspective
The White Flint area of North Bethesda is a unique asset to Montgomery County, MD, a suburb immediately north of Washington D.C. White Flint holds major growth potential in the local economy as a commercial center located directly on a Metro subway station and containing the County’s conference center, and as a redevelopment site for mixed-use projects. With an urban service area already supported by existing infrastructure and a Metro line, White Flint is poised to be a regional draw for shopping and a haven for its fiercely loyal residents.
However, White Flint currently suffers from significant mobility problems. Missing sidewalks and crosswalks, lack of a street network, and limited travel routes restrict growth and hurt White Flintʼs quality of life. These problems detract from valuable existing transportation infrastructure investments such as the Metro Redline and extensive regional bus services. More importantly, these concerns and an inability by public officials to craft a workable solution jeopardized the potential redevelopment opportunity.
The development community is poised to redevelop along Rockville Pike, a major retail spine, but also a north-south state road. The success, and frankly the feasibility, of any redevelopment project would come to depend on the success of mobility and accessibility through the Rockville Pike corridor. Though, the problems facing White Flint are greater than any one agency or developer could solve alone, a redraft of the area’s Master Plan provided the platform to develop a broad solution. Once this effort started however, the requisite density for development incentives was (seemingly) at odds with transportation solutions. Stakeholders equated density to traffic, rather than embracing the ideals of smart growth.
Five independent development teams and landholders realized that through Stakeholder collaboration the whole would be greater than the parts. The development community hosted a public process between the local residents, Montgomery County Planning Commission staff, and the development community to identify macro-level transportation and planning solutions for the sector. A series of key design principles were developed and tested to increase the walkability and transportation movement of the sector.
This panel will discuss the source of traffic and transportation solutions, the collaboration process with state and local officials and citizens, and enacting the broad solutions though the Master Plan.

New report offers sobering view of the energy transition
Every year the Statistical Review of World Energy offers a behemoth of data on the state of the global energy market. This year’s findings highlight the world’s insatiable demand for energy and the need to speed up the pace of decarbonisation.
Here are our four main takeaways from this year’s report:
Fossil fuel consumption — and emissions — are at record highs
Countries burnt record amounts of oil and coal last year, sending global fossil fuel consumption and emissions to all-time highs, the Energy Institute reported. Oil demand grew 2.6 per cent, surpassing 100mn barrels per day for the first time.
Meanwhile, the share of fossil fuels in the energy mix declined slightly by half a percentage point, but still made up more than 81 per cent of consumption.

Causes Supporting Charity for Elderly PeopleSERUDS INDIA
Around 52% of the elder populations in India are living in poverty and poor health problems. In this technological world, they became very backward without having any knowledge about technology. So they’re dependent on working hard for their daily earnings, they’re physically very weak. Thus charity organizations are made to help and raise them and also to give them hope to live.
