1 INTRODUCING RESILIENT LOS ANGELES
2 Resilience is a value that guides everything we do in Los Angeles, because we know that the decisions we make today will shape the future our children and grandchildren will inherit. The Resilient Los Angeles plan will help us strengthen our infrastructure, protect our economy, make our institutions more inclusive, and create safer neighborhoods. Mayor Eric Garcetti Los Angeles has always been a global destination for dreamers, doers, thinkers, and creators. Yet this dream comes with the growing pressures of our susceptibility to the impacts of climate change, aging infrastructure, and inequality. In Los Angeles, we are all deeply aware that it is not a question of if, but when, we will face the next big one. While we have made great strides over the past 25 years, it s time to do more. In 2013, Los Angeles was selected as an inaugural member of the 100 Resilient Cities Network. This global network, pioneered by the Rockefeller Foundation, helps member cities around the world become more resilient to the physical, social, and economic challenges of the 21st century. Since then, Angelenos have come together to develop Resilient Los Angeles, a strategy by and for Angelenos that leverages the city s strengths and advances new partnerships in order to prepare Los Angeles to address current and future challenges. Resilient Los Angeles is a commitment to a thriving future for all Angelenos, and lays the groundwork for our collective action, from the individual family to our regional partners. It seeks to move this dialogue forward and invites all Angelenos and potential partners to join in the discussion to work together to build a city that is safe, livable, and prosperous for all Angelenos. RESILIENT LOS ANGELES INCLUDES 4 CHAPTERS, 15 GOALS, AND 96 ACTIONS FOR ANGELENOS, NEIGHBORHOODS, THE CITY, AND OUR PARTNERS TO IMPLEMENT. The 4 chapters are organized around key themes at different scales of impact. By creating a pathway that recognizes roles across various scales of governance, planning, and action, we ensure our collective work is connected providing opportunities for information sharing and collaboration. Safe and Thriving Angelenos We re building the capacity of individual families and businesses both to prepare for and to recover from emergency events, and to build long-term financial security. We re also seeking to cultivate and grow L.A. s future leadership by partnering with young Angelenos to advance equity and stewardship in our communities. Strong and Connected Neighborhoods When disaster strikes, we know that recovery starts in our local communities and networks and we need to further empower and engage our neighborhood organizations to foster local resilience and social cohesion. These local networks play a critical role in climate adaptation for our most vulnerable communities. We re also taking action to reduce local health and wellness disparities while increasing economic security for all Angelenos. Prepared and Responsive City We are setting measurable goals to build our city s leadership in resilience, integrating tools and technology to prioritize our most vulnerable in decision-making, and fostering faster and more efficient disaster preparedness and recovery. We re also modernizing our city s aging infrastructure for the future and developing ways to provide more safe and affordable housing to improve economic security of Angelenos. Pioneering and Collaborative Partner Our work doesn t stop at our city s borders. We recognize the role we play globally as part of the 100 Resilient Cities network and the leadership we can provide to our region and beyond. We will continue to uphold principles of climate resilience as a city and will engage our public, private, and philanthropic leadership to be a model through advocacy, infrastructure investment, and partnerships.
3 INTRODUCING SHOCKS AND STRESSES The context of Los Angeles results in unique risks and vulnerabilities that impact the city s ability to sustain and strengthen its resilience. In resilience terms, shocks are sudden or acute events that threaten or impact Los Angeles immediate well-being. These can include earthquakes, extreme weather events, infrastructure failures, or civil unrest. Stresses are daily or chronic challenges that weaken our natural, built, or human resources. Examples include climate change, aging infrastructure, inequity, and homelessness. Stresses can amplify the effects of shocks when they occur, particularly for vulnerable populations. The shocks and stresses shown on this page are featured throughout Resilient Los Angeles. Look for the icons identifying the vulnerabilities to which Angelenos and our city are most susceptible. Economic Security Inequities in access and opportunities, both generationally and suddenly, strain the community fabric on a daily basis worsening disparities and impacting Angelenos health, wealth, and quality of life. Understanding and reducing daily stresses will increase the capacity of Angelenos to withstand additional challenges. Inequity Education Homelessness Lack of Affordable Housing Crime and Violence Disparities in Employment Climate Adaptation Disparities in Health Disparities in Access to Open Space Disparities in Access to Transit Food Insecurity Shock Stress Los Angeles is taking action to reduce the impact of future climate change, while also preparing for and adapting to the already-changing environment. Over the past few years, Los Angeles has experienced a new normal, with recordbreaking drought, heat, and storms; climate projections illustrate the future challenges with urban heat island, unpredictable snowpack, and sea level rise. Disaster Preparedness and Recovery Multiple hazards and threats could affect Los Angeles with little to no notice, and these disruptions could impact a few or all Angelenos. However, the magnitude of the impact can be reduced through greater awareness of these potential disasters and preparedness measures that can be taken in advance to bounce back quickly when disaster strikes. Climate Change Air Quality/Pollution Urban Heat Island Extreme Heat Drought Severe Weather and Flooding Sea Level Rise Extreme Cold Earthquake Fire Landslides Cybercrime and Terrorism Riot/Civil Unrest Public Health Emergencies Chemical Emergencies Tsunami Infrastructure Modernization Los Angeles has a vast, complex, and aging infrastructure. The City is investing billions of dollars to restore, rebuild, and modernize the aging infrastructure to prevent existing infrastructure from failing and to meet the needs of a large and dynamic city. Aging Infrastructure Infrastructure or Building Failure
4 TURNING L.A. INTO THE STRONGEST AND SAFEST CITY IN THE WORLD Resilient Los Angeles focuses on the pressing challenges and opportunities that will shape our city today and for future generations. The City will address our preparedness for disasters, the economic security of all Angelenos, the threats of climate change, and our aging infrastructure. The City will advance this work through initiatives and measurable targets that include: Economic Security Preserve existing affordable housing units and build at least 100,000 new housing units by Reduce the unsheltered population by at least half by Increase access to financial empowerment services and asset-building opportunities by Increase life expectancy for our most vulnerable neighborhoods by Develop resilience hubs in our most vulnerable neighborhoods by Leadership and Engagement Expand the Mayor s Office of Resilience by the end of Designate Departmental Chief Resilience Officers by April Track and report on resilience outcomes that show measurable progress for our most vulnerable populations and neighborhoods by Increase real-time data gathering and sharing tools to improve adaptive capacity, data-driven decision-making, and increased situational awareness by Engage the next generation of leaders in resiliencebuilding by Climate Adaptation Prepare for the impacts of climate change by developing a comprehensive city-wide climate risk and vulnerability assessment by Accelerate reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and meet or exceed climate resilience outcomes consistent with the Paris Climate Agreement by Develop and implement urban heat island reduction plans and demonstration projects in our most vulnerable neighborhoods by Increase access to green space and open space through investments along the Los Angeles River system and in underserved neighborhoods by Increase equitable tree canopy coverage by Bring earthquake early warning technology to all Angelenos by the end of Advance a coordinated approach to capital planning and infrastructure investment by Disaster Preparedness and Recovery Work with all Neighborhood Councils to develop resilience and preparedness plans by Prepare Angelenos to be self-sufficient for at least seven to 14 days after an emergency by Build a culture of preparedness by training all City departments and employees on disaster preparedness and recovery on an annual basis by Develop post-disaster service restoration targets for critical infrastructure by Infrastructure Modernization Apply resilience criteria to projects that prioritize investments in capital planning and critical infrastructure by Invest in green infrastructure and stormwater retention to increase the number of projects that capture water for reuse, improve water quality, and reduce flooding risk by Modernize the power grid to expand renewable energy to 65% of our power source by 2036 while deepening storage capacity and broadening emergency backup systems. Invest in our most vulnerable buildings to withstand seismic and climate threats by 2043.
