What is a Liveable Street?

Carly Clark and Aaron Naparstek of the Liveable Sreets Initiative (the folks behind Streetsblog) have a great piece in Good magazine that eloquently explains the concept of a complete street.

    $6.2 Mi For 311 Too Pricey For MTA, They Pimp 511

    every Municentric call to 311 costs Muni $1.96

  2. Commenting is strongly encouraged! :-)

    But I think you meant to post this below my previous post.

    That's a good story and a great point, but remember that it's unprecedented for 311 to charge Muni for the service (and I'd bet they don't charge DPT for every report of a leaky hydrant).

    The entire city is feeling the squeeze of a $500M+ budget deficit, but the question is: which department is absorbing the cuts and which is passing the buck?
