STRATEGIES

ST-22.1 Develop policies to establish infrastructure that complements transit-oriented corridors, including preferred and/or reduced parking fees for riders accessing transit facilities by electric or other renewable fuel vehicles. Identify funding sources for transit-oriented corridor infrastructure improvements.

ST-22.2 Reduce GHG emissions by procuring renewable fuel and electric transit vehicles with the goal of achieving low/zero emissions for the transit fleet.

ST-22.3 Encourage government fleets to maximize miles per gallon (MPG) fuel efficiency for all non-specialty vehicle procurement.

ST-22.4 Develop a vehicle procurement process that ensures a timely transition of city- and county-owned vehicles to low/zero emissions. Use sources such as the Environmental Protection Agency’s Green Vehicle Guide as a procurement guide and include the cost of carbon emissions in the life-cycle cost analysis process.
