HOW WILL GREEN CONNECTIONS BE IMPLEMENTED?

IMPLEMENTING GREEN CONNECTIONS: THE NEXT TWENTY YEARS

G reen Connections is a long-term

planning project that sets high ambitions for 115

miles of our streets. The plan puts forward a goal

of implementing the network over a twenty-

year period. The scale of the Green Connections

network creates opportunities to coordinate with

city projects and private development. Additionally,

community members and neighborhood groups

will play an important role in the Network’s

development.

Green Connections will not create a new

program, rather, it calls for coordinating with

existing initiatives for traffic calming, stormwater

management, and bicycle and pedestrian

improvements.

HOW WILL GREEN CONNECTIONS BE FUNDED?

Implementation of the Network over the 20 year life of the plan will be achieved organically through coordination with existing programs related to traffic calming, bicycle planning, pedestrian safety, stormwater management, sewer repair and street repaving.

WILL EVERY GREEN CONNECTION LOOK AND FEEL THE SAME?

Segments along the network will have a different look and feel. The level of intervention will vary based on existing conditions, coordination opportunities, available funding and community support.

Showcase Intervention

~ Most successfully achieves project goals.

~ May feature reductions in traffic volumes and dedication of space for habitat or community gathering.

~ The Design Toolkit contains elements that could be incorporated into showcase projects such as: Super Bulbs, Intersection Islands, Diverters, Street Parks and Play Streets.

Moderate Intervention

~ Would include the amenities of a light intervention

~ May include minor sidewalk enhancements, curb extensions and stormwater infrastructure, or intersection treatments that help calm traffic.

~ More clearly embody the goals of Green Connections, will involve a greater level of community engagement, and may involve a more holistic streetscape design.

Light Intervention

~ Would include signage and wayfinding, and lower cost improvements like bicycle stencils and street murals.

~ May feature basic greening like sidewalk landscaping gardens and filling in gaps in street trees.

~ May feature basic traffic calming measures.

IMPLEMENTING GREEN CONNECTIONS: WHAT ROLE CAN YOU PLAY?

A cross San Francisco, dedicated

residents and neighborhood groups have

collaborated with city agencies to organize

street cleanup and beautification events,

create community gardens, advocate for

streetscape and traffic safety improvements,

and initiate other projects that make

our neighborhoods healthier and more

livable. When community members take

the initiative to improve our public spaces,

everyone benefits – participants can help

ensure that projects that meet local needs

and preferences, neighbors get to know

one another, and over time residents may

develop a greater sense of pride in their

neighborhood, paving the way for additional

community-building ideas and projects.

Building on the success of these grassroots

efforts, Green Connections envisions that

neighborhood-led projects will be

one critical mechanism to implement the

Green Connections network, enabling local

residents, business owners, neighborhood

groups and community stakeholders to take a

more active role in building out the network

in close collaboration with the City.

BUILDING COMMUNITY FROM THE GROUND UP:

Neighborhoods develop vibrant public spaces

San Francisco has countless examples of community members coming together to create new open space projects. For example, through SFDPW’s Sidewalk Landscaping Permit program, residents have replaced swaths of barren concrete with landscaped areas that enliven their streets. Similarly, residents and community groups have organized to create and upgrade over 100 new open spaces through the SFDPW’s Streets Park Program, which allows residents to build gardens on underutilized DPW land, such as medians and utility rights-of-way.

Here are other inspiring examples where community members have organized to contribute creative, attractive, and well-used spaces to our urban landscape.

Shotwell Street

In 2004, a resident on Shotwell Street decided to tear up a portion of sidewalk in front her home to build a garden, but realized that she would first need to learn to navigate the city approvals and permitting process. She ultimately succeeded in creating a beautiful garden in front of her home, inspiring many of her neighbors to follow suit and spawning the local organization PlantSF, which provides information to other interested sidewalk gardeners around the city. In response to growing interest in sidewalk landscaping, SFDPW created a streamlined Sidewalk Landscaping Permit program to encourage other gardeners to develop projects.

Pennsylvania Street Gardens

In 2008, a few neighbors in Potrero Hill saw potential in a large, trash-strewn lot adjacent to a highway off-ramp, and with the help of many volunteers gradually transformed it into the thriving Pennsylvania Street Garden, which provides walking paths, hundreds of species of native and drought-tolerant plants, seating, and a dog park. In order to obtain permission to use the space, residents worked closely with Caltrans, the SFDPW Street Parks program, and the San Francisco Parks Alliance, and the garden has been such a success that neighbors have started gardens in three other public sites nearby.

1 Guerrero Street

Neighbors on Guerrero Street were concerned about heavy traffic and fast speeds, and partnered with the neighborhood association, San Jose/Guerrero Coalition To Save Our Streets, to advocate for traffic calming solutions that would reduce traffic safety hazards while beautifying the street. The group successfully persuaded the City to pass legislation calling for a street redesign, which included reducing traffic from 6 lanes to 4 lanes, lowering speed limits, adding bike lanes, and greening the median with low-maintenance plants (which neighbors helped implement by raising funds and organizing planting days).

2 3 Visitacion Valley Greenway

Over a period of 16 years, community members worked tirelessly to advocate for and build the Visitacion Valley Greenway, six gardens on formerly vacant SFPUC right of way that form a ribbon of green space across the neighborhood. Each garden has a different theme –a landscaped plaza, herb garden, community garden, agricultural plot, native garden, and children’s garden—and incorporates artwork, recycled materials, and elements such as seating and outdoor classrooms. Among the many partners and supporters of the project are SFPUC, SF Recreation & Parks Department, the Trust for Public Land, and funders SF Beautiful, SF Parks Alliance, and the Community Challenge Grant.

4 Quesada Gardens

The Quesada Gardens Initiative started over a decade ago, when a couple of long-time Bayview Hunters Point residents had the idea to plant flowers and food in the public median along Quesada Avenue, a street then known as a magnet for crime and drug dealing. From this simple action, the initiative has grown to encompass many community-building opportunities, including a thriving network of backyard and community gardens, educational programs, public artwork, and community events. Over the years, the program has enlisted the support of thousands of volunteers and has been able to secure City, private, and philanthropic resources.

IMPLEMENTING NEIGHBORHOOD-LED PROJECTS: WHAT ARE THE STEPS?

City approvalsThe types of requirements, permits, and fees will vary depending on the project. The Better Streets website (right) details the process for a range of streetscape improvements.

Neighborhood supportBuilding support - presenting design ideas at neighborhood events or neighborhood group meetings can build goodwill, allow people to voice their ideas and concerns, and encourage longer-term stewardship of the project.

ResourcesFunding is likely to be a challenge to implementation. There are a range of City, philanthropic, and private sources that can provide funding, in-kind donations, and other resources (see Community Resource List, right).

Maintenance & stewardship plan Project organizers should consider maintenance and other ongoing needs early on and integrate them into the design. A group of volunteers or a community benefit district (CBD) could potentially provide long-term maintenance and stewardship of the project.

IMPLEMENTING GREEN CONNECTIONS: UPCOMING PROJECTS

A colored dot has been placed next to each project to indicate how the project meets the broader goals of Green

Connections. Some projects have design components that will meet all of the goals of a Green Connection, such as

the Wiggle Neighborhood Green Corridor Project or the Mansell Corridor Improvement Project. Some projects will

need additional funding to fully meet the goals of a Green Connection, such as Safe Routes to School projects and

neighborhood traffic calming projects.

This map highlights some of the upcoming projects that overlap with the Green Connections network, scheduled for

implementation over the next 5 years. These projects vary in scale and include: community-led ecological and stewardship

projects, neighborhood traffic calming projects, pedestrian enhancements around schools, and complete streetscape
