The highest and best use of land is clearly parking - Join the Austin Campaign for Parking Reform - donate to the cause, here: https://secure.everyaction.com/lXskzFUM30S2C9YbEi5lNA2 (Don't tell Captain Crapp Landuse!)

This entertaining and informative interlude was first shown in two segments at the CNU-CTX 2021 Forum - Over Parked and Under-Performing: Why Cities are Reconsidering the Rules that Govern Free Parking which featured Donald Shoup as the keynote speaker and was broadcast on Wednesday, December 8, 2021. We'll have links to that program available soon.

Background: Hi Everyone, my name is John Simmerman. I’m a health promotion professional with over 30 years of experience and my area of concentration has evolved into a specialization of how the built environment influences human behavior related to active living and especially active mobility.

In 2012 I launched the non-profit Advocates for Healthy Communities as an effort to help promote and create healthy, active places. 

Since that time I've been exploring, documenting, and profiling established, emerging, and aspiring Active Towns wherever they might be, in order to produce high-quality multimedia content to help inspire the creation of more safe and inviting, environments that promote a "Culture of Activity" for "All Ages & Abilities".

This is my personal Active Towns Channel and it features my original video content and reflections, including a selection of podcast episodes and short films profiling the positive and inspiring efforts happening around the world as I am able to experience and document them. 

Thanks for tuning in, I hope you find this content helpful.
