Step by Step Los Angeles County: Pedestrian Plans for Unincorporated Communities

Description

The proposed project consists of the adoption of Step by Step Los Angeles County: Pedestrian Plans for Unincorporated Communities. This plan serves as an implementing document of the County of Los Angeles General Plan 2035, and formalizes a vision for walkability in unincorporated communities based on identified needs and community, departmental, and Board of Supervisors input. The plan was called out in General Plan Implementation Program M-2, and will be incorporated into the Mobility Element as a sub-element. The plan provides specific actions the County can integrate into departmental work programs to update policies, practices, and procedures to improve walkability and help eliminate fatalities and severe injuries for people walking in unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County. The plan proposes new programs as well as recommendations to improve existing programs that support and encourage walking in the county.
