Our firm served as the consultant team lead for Strategic Growth Council’s Transformative Climate Communities technical assistance efforts. Our firm assisted the six applicants to develop work plans, refine project scopes, review project narratives, and confirm alignment with program guidelines. This project involved coordinating with local jurisdictions and their partners, collaborating with the consultant project team, and working with state agencies to address technical issues and project-specific concerns.

We work with applicants seeking funding under the State’s Affordable Housing Sustainable Communities program. Over three funding cycles, we worked with proposers in Sacramento, San Diego, the San Francisco Bay Area, and Southern California to provide feedback, review narratives, and aid with project development.

Our firm helped create an implementation plan for the reuse of a 110-acre site in Huntington Park, CA. The community-identified reuse scenario identified actionable next steps for the project area, with the goal of aligning investment with the community’s vision.

Our firm is helping the Water Foundation develop an advocacy platform to advance policies that promote the capture and treatment of storm water in Los Angeles County. Through these efforts, the Water Foundation, grantees, and environmental partners more closely collaborate on strategies to increase storm water capture, water recycling, and water conservation in greater Los Angeles.
