Unlike San Francisco, San Jose is a car-first city. However, with a robust, electrified train system, our growing city will benefit in several ways: 1. Quality of life: Saves us time when we travel because nobody loves sitting in traffic. 2. Reduced energy consumption: Trains and other forms of public transit are typically more energy-efficient per passenger mile than private vehicles. This reduces the overall energy consumption of a city and helps mitigate the strain on energy resources. 3. Land use efficiency: Instead of allocating vast areas for parking lots and highways, cities can use the land more effectively for housing, green spaces, and commercial development. This helps cities accommodate their growing populations without excessive urban sprawl. Why bring this up? Because Mayor Matt Mahan talked about some of these things during our CCIM--Northern California Chapter event last week! It was an honor hosting the Mayor, Johnny Khamis, and all our guests that attended our Luncheon. #CCIM #SiliconValley #DevelopmentDrivenDuties #TransitTrailblazer #MetroMobilizingMayor Joseph Cervantes | Chad Huston | Michael Luong | 🔸Helen HL Chong, CCIM, CIPS | Catherine House, CRE, FRICS, CCIM | Eric Rehn, CCIM | Tony Rishell, CCIM, CPM | Terry Shores | Tim Tikalsky, CPA, CCIM | Tim Vi Tran, SIOR, CCIM, Commercial Real Estate Advisor | Matt Mahan | Johnny Khamis | Mackenzie Mossing Here's what he had to say...

Come join us on September 14th as our team and others talk of our experiences and expertise in Building Repositioning. We have been involved in most all the major repositioning projects in the Norteast that include Office Building Conversions to Residential, Revitalization and Renovation of Office Buildings, Hospitality Refreshes and Hotel Renovations become the major scopes of the large Building Repsoitioning projects we have completed in the past 20 years. Today there is also a renewed focus on public spaces of the buildings and include Lobby Renovations, Rooftop and Amenity Spaces. Give us a call and our team of collective professionals both from AECOM and other team members that can discuss the process to develop a SOW, complete Energy Audits and finally Design and Construct your repositioning process. Give us a call and we can set a 1st meeting with our team. Learn firsthand what the lack of a fresh, and energy efficient building is costing you in lost leasing opportunities and excess energy costs. As we approach the initial timeframes to become carbon neutral the costs to upgrade existing buildings will only increase and we’ll witness the demise of many existing and iconic buildings and replaced with new highly efficient and amenity rich new structures. This shouldn’t be the case for all buildings, many just need a solid repositioning program, which we can help you develop. Give us a call @ 646 432-8241 / joe.ryanjr@aecom.com

"The history of transportation in our city is a testament to human ingenuity and progress. Over the years, our urban landscape has witnessed a remarkable transformation in the way we move from place to place. From the clatter of horse-drawn carriages on cobblestone streets to the sleek efficiency of modern electric trams and subways, our city's transportation system has evolved to meet the changing needs of its residents. As we look back on this journey, we gain a deeper appreciation for the innovation and infrastructure that have shaped our city into what it is today. It's a reminder that the path to a better future often lies in understanding the lessons of our past. #CityTransportation #UrbanEvolution #HistoryInTheMaking"

Expert in physical activity, sustainable transport, healthy cities / WHO Consultant / Prof. Dr. habil MSc ETH
In most places in #switzerland there is still a mandatory minimum of parking spaces for cars, perpetuating the notion that this is the standard form of #transportation even in city centers. Good examples like this are illustrating that #systemchange is possible. Everywhere.
BIG NEWS: Montreal has become the largest North American city to eliminate mandatory parking space minimums for residential & commercial projects. The city’s new 2050 Urban Planning and Mobility Plan revealed the move, which apparently is in effect now. https://lnkd.in/gKsic4iS

International "World Town Planning Day" was founded in 1949 by Carlos Maria della Paolera to educate people about the importance of thoughtful urban planning in cities around the world. 🌎 Today and everyday, USP recognizes how the district's built environment impacts the way we perceive and experience life in Union Square. That's why advancing public space, safety, and accessibility are key priorities of our USQNext Vision Plan. 🏙️https://lnkd.in/gQsecNUn How will you celebrate cities today?

Toronto City Councillor. Last Environmental Commissioner of Ontario. Climate/ Environmental Lawyer. Green Economy Heroes. Working for a liveable future.
More good news at City of Toronto Infrastructure and Environment Committee today: https://lnkd.in/gURxYUdU. First, I'm proud to see early results from my work to reduce beef purchases for the 7 million meals/year that the City of Toronto serves. Considerable progress is being made in children's services, shelters, and long-term care, to rebalance away from beef and towards healthier food that causes less climate damage and should also save money. Watch for the regular annual reports on continuing progress. Thank you to the vegetarian chefs who have volunteered their expertise to coach city chefs in the transition! IE 15.1, Serving Climate-friendly Meals through City Services. Second, I'm proud to have accelerated biodiversity protection in wetlands and other environmentally sensitive areas of the #TorontoIslands. Staff had proposed to "initiate" this work sometime between 2034 and 2044 (see presentation p. 10). When challenged, they agreed this was way too slow, given the fragility of these areas and their importance to a wide range of birds and wildlife. Instead, PFR will tell us late this year what resources they will need to get started in 2025. IE 15.2, Toronto Island Park Master Plan. Thank you to the nature community for bringing the problem to my attention and suggesting thoughtful solutions, and thank you to Ausma Malik and to PFR staff for working with me to make it happen. Third, IEC agreed to begin public consultations on the essential Emission Performance Standards for existing buildings, the indispensable backbone of all our climate pledges. IE 15.4 Building Emissions Performance Standards - Design Principles and Development Plan. After a flurry of last minute negotiations, consultations on small-scale existing residential buildings will be focussed on voluntary/ incentive measures, but mandatory requirements remain on track (if slowly) for all other buildings. Thank you to Oxford Properties Group for showing us how they are bringing their fossil fuel use down across many types of buildings. All three topics are subject to final approval at Council later this month.
