LET'S TALK ABOUT LIVABLE PLACES & VISION ZERO!

MARGARET WALLACE BROWN
Planning Director
City of Houston
A Houston Tomorrow
civic discussion online
Wednesday, March 24, 12-1pm

imagine a city where no one dies or is seriously injured in a traffic crash. Hard to do, isn’t it? Here in Houston, we know it’s possible. In Houston, we can prioritize safety over convenience.No loss of life is acceptable and we can prevent people from dying on our roadways. Everyone deserves to get where they are going and return home safely. Everyone deserves to move with dignity, not fear of getting hit or shame for feeling like they do not belong on our streets. Globally, safe streets are recognized as a human right. - Mayor Sylvester Turner

 The Livable Places Action Committee will focus on rules that encourage the development and preservation of affordable, quality housing for all. It will also focus on creating opportunities for increased infill development that will strengthen Houston’s core, encourage use of multi-modal transportation options, improve safety, and preserve great neighborhoods.

Director Wallace Brown will be joined by Chief Transportation Planner David Fields
