TRANSFORM– The Transportation Choices Summit and Advocacy Day
There is still time to sign up for TRANSFORM the Transportation Choices Summit to be held Tuesday, April 23rd. To sign up http://transformca.org/choices2013
Join leading community organizations and advocates in Sacramento and help ensure state policies and investments promote effective public transit, great walking and bicycling, and affordable homes. Together we will learn about the hottest issues from leaders like the Secretary of Business, Transportation and Housing Brian Kelly and Air Resources Board Chair Mary Nichols as well as leading advocates like James Corless of Transportation for America. Hone your skills and messages in breakout sessions, and time for networking with advocates from your area, and from across the state.
Cost — The Summit is $100, but early bird sign-ups can take advantage of open sliding scale rates from $25-100. The registration fee covers both the Summit itself and the April 22 Mobile Tours and Networking Day.
On April 24 Transportation Choices Advocacy Day — Join over 100 community and organizational representatives as we join together for a morning training then head to the State Capitol. We’ll let them know how urgent it is to include funding for transportation choices and affordable homes in the state’s cap-and-trade program and more. With diverse voices we can ensure they prioritize a transportation system that provides access for all, protects our environment and is the cornerstone for sustainable, equitable communities. The summit will help prepare you for the advocacy day, but it is also possible to just attend this April 24 event.
Many local Cool Davis members and bike, and active transportation advocates are signed up to attend. Wear your Cool Davis T-shirts or other Davis apparel so we can find each other especially on Advocacy Day.

Cool Davis is hoping all our friends living in Rancho Yolo remain well! This is a reminder of our fragile grid and the need to look after each other during heat emergencies. Hurray that the City of Davis City now has Social Services staff to join City of Davis Fire Department to assist when a vulnerable neighborhood's power goes down.
For other down neighborhoods - remember to check on your neighbors! If your power is still on consider ways to reduce your energy use pre-cool , cover windows, delay appliance use, double up with neighbors in a cool location - cooling center (see City post for cooling center info), movie theater etc to reduce loads. After the emergency, move forward on your plans for how you will reduce and manage energy use in the future. We have to stand together to adapt to new climate challenges. Cool Davis and our many partners are here to help.
