Traffic is tied with Accountable Development
We need to resolve the current transportation challenges in order to serve the existing community, and visitors; if we are to provide for accountable development in scale with our small town. We need to require Community Impact Reports. Investigate an electric trolley system; enhance safe pedestrian and bike routes.
Water & climate security
Water quality, quantity and watershed protection; along with green building, waste reduction and renewable power production are the essential areas to focus on for an inheritable future. Continue to support all renewable energy power possible for Sebastopol & Solar Sonoma County, and the Climate Protection Camapign; partner in more watershed protection programs and projects; seek grants for a groundwater management plan and broader water conservation efforts.
Community vitality
Ensure our safety & medical services are supported; redeploy Sustainable Sebastopol as a vehicle for a multi stakeholders group, to protect our ecological health, and social well being; invigorate the local economy.
