Description

Challenge

Green space loss & heat island effect: There is a general lack of park and green space access in the region. ADUs and infill remove private lawns/backyards — the only green space available in many dense neighborhoods. Regulations requiring “amenities” often result in token measures (e.g., paved plazas with cacti and ping pong tables) that do not replace parks
