Planning Objectives to Inform Project Priorities Keep apprised of ongoing transportation and land-use planning efforts throughout the county Encourage local agencies to quantify transportation infrastructure needs and costs as part of their planning processes Encourage and support local jurisdictions in meeting their housing objectives established through their adopted Housing Elements and RHNA. The second round of PDA Investment & Growth Strategies will assess local jurisdiction success approving sufficient housing at all income levels. They will also, where appropriate, assist local jurisdictions in implementing local policy changes to facilitate achieving these goals1. The locally crafted policies should be targeted to the specific circumstances of each PDA. For example, if the PDA currently has few moderate- or low-income households, any recommend policy changes should be aimed at promoting affordable housing. If the PDA currently is mostly low-income housing, any needed policy changes should be aimed at community stabilization. MTC and ABAG staff will distribute a technical memo to guide this task by October 1, 2016, including data to identify jurisdictions’ challenges (e.g. RHNA performance and current affordability) and a listing of the Bay Area’s best housing policies that are intended to address a range of housing challenges. This section should identify planning costs needed to address policy changes and other barriers to creating or maintaining affordability.

Planning Objectives. The stated goal of this project is: “To demonstrate that the stability threshold of a stream reach can be improved using methods based on hydrogeomorphic principals and that this can have a beneficial effect on the riparian vegetation in former wet xxxxxxx adjacent to the stream channel.” The specific objectives are to increase the stability of the stream channel while preserving natural stream processes, to enhance the native riparian vegetation; and to assist in educating other landowners and natural resource managers about techniques for stream and riparian restoration as well as use the area as an outdoor classroom to supplement the Apache

Planning Objectives. “The purpose of this project is to dredge historic river channels, revegetate native riparian vegetation, and monitor both of these actions for optimum successful restoration of the habitat along the lower Colorado River in the ‘Ahakhav Tribal Preserve.”18 One of the principal motives for this project was to “learn from the restoration effort and develop a template for environmental restoration in other areas along the lower Colorado River.”19 The goals for 18 CRIT Education Department.

Flagstaff: Ecosystem Management International. the restoration of the Preserve are as follows: restore open areas of the backwater; revegetate with native species; improve and expand habitat for the diverse wildlife species along the lower Colorado River; maintain restoration of the Preserve; and strengthen public understanding and respect for the ecology and cultural history of the ‘Ahakhav area.20 The objectives for the Deer Island project were to: establish a stand of native vegetation, including cottonwood, willow, and mesquite; institute monitoring programs to determine success of revegetation efforts; and use revegetated areas for environmental education, low-impact recreation, and Native arts.21 – December 1997; and second site: June 1998 - September 1998); conduct dredging operations and stabilize dredge material relocation sites (September 1998 – September 1999); construction of water control structures (June 1998 – September 1999); construction of fish habitat structures (September 1998 – June 1999); post-dredging activities (December 1998 – September 2000); and two post-vegetation bird censuses (June 1999 and September 1999). The Deer Island revegetation project began in 1998 and included: an avian census; native species revegetation of 75 acres (May 1998 – January 2000); and revegetation site maintenance (April 1999 - January 2000).

Planning Objectives. “The primary objective of the Yuma West Wetlands Revegetation Project is to establish and protect 35 acres of long-term, self-sustaining, native cottonwood and willow riparian habitat along the 100-year floodplain of the Colorado River.”58 The riparian corridor will serve as habitat for the willow fly catcher, an endangered species, and other native wildlife. 56 US Bureau of Reclamation-Yuma Area Office.

Flagstaff: Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Consulting. p. 1 Recommended or Implemented Plan: The restoration site is divided into two terraces, one close to the river and the other on the higher ground to the south of the river. Restoration activities in the river terrace included removal of non-native species and revegetation and reforestation with native species. Before developing the upland terrace of the site in the area that was a landfill, a geo- technical analysis was conducted so that the development plan could be shaped to avoid the need to dig up and remove large parts of the landfill.59 The upper terrace, approximately 110 acres, will consist of irrigated turf grass for use as a park. The park will contain an interactive playground that has been donated by a local businessman. Monitoring/Management: Prior to restoration, numerous analyses of the site were conducted to determine both baseline conditions and the areas best suited for revegetation. To monitor the site, photo monitoring stations were established, and Global Positioning System (GPS) and Geographic Information System (GIS) methods were used to develop and analyze species survival data. Six photo monitoring stations were established, and panoramic pictures were taken at monthly intervals throughout the growing season. The monthly monitoring began once revegetation was completed. As of the 2004 growing season, data has been collected from 22 transects located throughout 20 of the 35 acres.60 An additional $1,000,000 in funding came from: Local State and Regional Parks $570,000; State Lake Improvement Fund $350,000; Heritage Trails $95,000; Arizona Game and Fish $25,000; Environmental Protection Agency, Border Area Wetlands Revegetation and Reforestation $25,000; BOR Title 28 MODE Enhancement ...

Planning Objectives. “The Nature Conservancy selects Last Great Places based on the best available scientific information. Selection criteria include: the vulnerability of the site, the threats to it, and the ability to lessen those threats and sustain the diversity of life. What’s crucial in all cases is that the places are still healthy, functioning ecosystems, which makes their conservation possible. The overriding goal at these places is to protect their biological diversity.”119 The Three Links Farm sits at the upstream end of the Lower San Xxxxx River basin. The Conservancy purchased the Farm in order to retire nearly 4,200 acre-feet per year of groundwater pumping. The land was subdivided into five parcels and a conservation easement placed on the properties. The five parcels range in size, and each has a right to pump groundwater. The total pumping allowed 117 xxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/initiatives/freshwater/work/sanpedroriver.html 118 xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/ 119 xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/ by the five parcels is 300 acre-feet per year. Hydrological modeling has shown that this reduction in groundwater pumping will benefit twenty miles of river with increased base flows and healthier riparian vegetation. The conservation easement placed on the property also contains stipulations for further sub-division of the property, which allow for each parcel to be split one more time. The Nature Conservancy retains the right to approve the parcel sub-division. TNC also retains the right to approve site plans for development of the properties. TNC is currently working with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and Salt River Project to secure the 4,200 acre-feet per year of groundwater that was retired from the land and maintain it as instream flow. Monitoring/Management: Monitoring of the riparian management zone includes well monitoring, transects across river, instream flow quality and quantity, habitat quality, wildlife, and geomorphology. Instream flow measurements are taken annually during the summer to determine the extent of “wet” water in the river. 120 $2,770,000. The total budget for the project was $4 million and included a grant from ADEQ of $130,000 for exclusionary fencing. The Nature Conservancy hopes to recoup all costs involved in the project by selling the property off in parcels. A conservation easement was placed on 2/3 of the property and sold to the Bureau of Reclamation. Forty-two hundred acre-feet of groundwater pumping rights were included in the easemen...
