Implementing Sustainable Green Streets and Parking Lots in San Mateo County, California
Although sustainable green streets are becoming commonplace in pioneering cities, such as Portland, Oregon, and Seattle, Washington, it can be challenging to bring these designs into the mainstream. In 2007, the San Mateo Countywide Water Pollution Prevention Program (Countywide Program) initiated a Sustainable Green Streets and Parking Lots Program to help municipalities in San Mateo County (immediately south of San Francisco) implement low impact development designs in transportation infrastructure, using funding from a countywide vehicle registration fee. A case study of this innovative program is presented, describing the results of its three initial components — an award-winning design guidebook, grant funding of demonstration projects, and municipal staff training — followed by a discussion of future plans and objectives.
