Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

Part 3 - Line 4a

WE CONTINUED OUR WORK PROMOTING STATEWIDE TRANSPORTATION POLICY TO PROVIDE MORE TRANSIT OPTIONS, AND SUCCESSFULLY FOUGHT TO WIN ADDITIONAL TRANSIT FUNDING IN THE STATE BUDGET. WE ARE LEADERS OF THE COALITION FOR MORE RESPONSIBLE TRANSPORTATION AND WORK ACROSS THE STATE HOLDING FORUMS AND GATHERING STORIES TO BUILD OUR CASE FOR EQUITABLE AND AFFORDABLE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. WE CONTINUE OUR WORK TO STOP WASTEFUL HIGHWAY EXPANSION AND PROMOTE FIXING LOCAL ROADS FIRST.


THE GREEN TIER LEGACY COMMUNITIES CHARTER WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2011 WITH 5 MEMBERS TO PROMOTE SUSTAINABILITY MEASURES, SHARING OF RESOURCES, AND A COMMITMENT TO BENCHMARK PROGRESS. WE NOW HAVE ALMOST 30 COMMUNITIES AND COUNTIES AND THE PROGRAM CONTINUES TO EXPAND. WE HAVE ALSO ADDED A LEGACY COMMUNITIES ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH AS OPTION FOR THE COMMUNITIES. THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PROMOTE HEALTH IN ALL PUBLIC POLICY.


GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE MIMICS NATURAL WATER SYSTEMS BY MANAGING AND USING STORM-WATER RUNOFF AT ITS SOURCE. IT IS AN ALTERNATIVE TO STANDARD "GRAY" INFRASTRUCTURE, WHICH DIVERTS RUNOFF DIRECTLY INTO LOCAL WATERWAYS THROUGH STORM-WATER PIPES AND DRAINS. EXCESSIVE POLLUTION AND NUTRIENT LOADING ASSOCIATED WITH RUNOFF ARE MAJOR PROBLEMS FACING WATERWAYS AND DRINKING WATER SOURCES ACROSS WISCONSIN. GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE IS AN IDEAL SOLUTION TO THOSE ISSUES BECAUSE IT ALLOWAS BUILT (LIVEABLE) LANDSCAPES TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES THAT WE RELY ON FOR RECREATION AND SUSTENANCE (OUR LIVELIHOOD).
