  1. More shade provided by pole mounted PV systems such as at Red Mountain library.

    Use ASU as an example...they even cover some of the mall walkways with photovoltaic panels that provide clean electricity as well as shade. We need all the shade we can get to help mitigate the urban heat island effect. More projects like at the Mesa Red Mountain library where PV panels provide clean electricity as well as shade.

  2. A place my wife feels comfortable getting around without a car

    We live 1.5 miles away from three grocery stores, a Target, Home Depot, multiple coffee shops, and a couple restaurants, among other commercial locations. My wife is still terrified of walking or riding her bike to any of these places because Power Road is so wide and the traffic on all the streets around drive so fast. Motorists fail to stop at stop signs and consistently stop INSIDE the crosswalks (if they even do stop... typically they roll through if they're turning) at stop lights.

  3. Make all city street landscaping (food forest) both edible and sustainable by capturing rainwater.

    A "food forest" is a combination of edible landscaping form plants available to the public, free. By using city/street landscaping islands for this, rain water can be captured and diverted, the plants provide both shade and food, water use is minimized and the whole city becomes foot traffic friendly and cleaner air. Tucson is doing this now -- http://www.upworthy.com/can-somebody-just-give-this-guy-a-million-bucks-already?g=2
