BUILT ENVIRONMENT
In 2050, Downtown Tucson will live sustainability w:ithin itslocal resources. It will be Net Zero Carbon, Net Zero Energy, and Water Independent through retrofitting existing buildings and technology for new builds.
PLAN TUCSON Plan Tucson is a general and sustainability plan developed for the City of Tucson in November of 2013 that replaced the General Plan established for Tucson in 2001. The Plan's purpose is to help guide long term decisions regarding Tucson's future. It focuses on elements such as housing, jobs, land use, transportation, water, and energy resources to aid in creating a more prosperous and sustainable city. Plan Tucson was used as a long-term policy document informing the decisions that shape Tucson's future. There are four categories and over 70 goals in Plan Tucson that address how to move the development of the city forward in a positive way. This team has used these four environments as a foundation, structuring our goals based on them and referencing their specific aspirations in our metrics. 8

PIMA PROSPERS Pima Prospers is the Comprehensive Plan of Pima County and has been updated as of 2015. The document incorporates many county services and recognizes the importance of the county's role in the region. It seeks to associate the county's annual budget, capital improvement program, land use, and future bonding programs with the goals established and outlined in its plan. Pima Prospers is a living document that is updated every year and focuses on five main categories, land use, physical infrastructure, hwnan infrastructure, economic development, and the cost of development. This team has used Pima Prospers as the groundwork for the establishment of our own goals and research. 9
WATER TYPES GROUNDWATER The water found underground in the cracks and spaces in soil, sand and rock. It 1s stored in and moves slowly through geologic formations of soil, sand and rocks called aquifers. STORMWATER The water that drains off a land area from rainfall. This includes rain that faJls on rooftops, directed through gutters and downpipes onto land or into drains, as well as rain falling on ground surface areas such as roads, driveways, footpaths, gardens and lawns.
0
RAINWATER The water that falls on the roof from rain, which can be harvested into a storage tank prior to contact with the ground. Rainwater quality is much higher, since water that hits the ground generally contains many more contaminants. GRAY WATER All wastewater generated in households or office buildings from streams without fecal contamination, i.e. all streams except for the wastewater from toilets. Sources of gray water include, sinks, showers, baths, clothes washing machines or dish washers. RECLAIMED WATER Reclaimed or recycled water is the process of converting wastewater into water that can be reused for other purposes.
MORE COMMON WATER TYPES: BLACK WATER /WASTEWATER The mixture of urine, feces and flush water along with anal cleansing water and/or dry cleansing materials. POTABLE WATER Water that is fit for consumption by humans and animals, it can come from a variety of sources and filtered, a1so known as "ddnking water". 10
GENERAL DEFINITIONS AQUIFER An aquifer is a geological formation of underground sand, gravel, or saturate rock where water collects. The Tucson Aquifer is actively recharged with water from the Colorado River. AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES A self-driving car that uses a variety of sensors, such as radar and GPS, to navigate an appropriate path of journey without human input. People act as passengers rather than drivers. COMMUNITY COLLECTIVE A great combination of museums, eduction, and health care with flexible interior and exterior spatial organization continue activities and existing museums to bring in more programs and to increase the amount of visiting. COMPOSTING TOILET A type of toilet that treats human excreta by a biological process called composting. This process leads to two byproducts: leachate and a decomposition of organic matter and turns human excreta into compost. Contemporary urban installations are designed to have no smell. The largest installation is in a 7 story office building in Seattle. CURB CUT A break in the curb that helps to collect excess storm water.
DECENTRALIZED TREATMENT PLANT An independent source of water treatment for the community that functions separately from the centralized main facility. DETENTION BASINS A low impact development practice consisting of vegetated depressions made to detain and release storm,,vater runoff. DRY WELLS An underground system that aids in water collection through a porous wall that allows water to slowly dissipate into the ground and recharge the aquifer. DUAL PLUMBING A plumbing system that separates discharged waste and gray water, which allows for the reuse of gray water. FILTRATION STOP A transit stop serving buses and streetcars that helps filter and clean stormwater. The stop has a series of containers that filter the water before it is released into adjacent soil. GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE Green Infrastructure techniques use soils and vegetation to infiltrate, evapotranspiration, and/ or recycle stormwater runoff to enhance overall environmental quality.
11
GENERAL DEFINITIONS CONTINUED GREEN WALLS A green wall, also known as a Jiving wall or vertical garden, is a wall that is partially or completely covered with plants growing out of a medium such as soil, water, or a substrate. Most green walls include an integrated water delivery system. HEAT ISLAND EFFECT An urban area that is significantly warmer due to large amounts of asphalt and concrete infrastructure due to absorption and retention of heat. This can lead to higher electricity costs, air pollution and heat related illnesses.
LIVING INFRASTRUCTURE This refers to all interconnected ecosystems that perform services for the urban environment. LIVING MACHINE Microbes attached to the roots of plants to treat wastewater to potable quality through biofiltration. The treated water is returned to the potable system or to the Santa Cruz River.

HOT DESKS Rent-able office spaces and desks that allow small businesses and startups to grow their business and network with others in the same position in a shared space.
MEMBRANE BIOREACTOR The combination of a membrane process like micro-filtration or ultra-filtration v1rith a biological wastewater treatment process that treats wastewater to a potable quality.
HYDROPONICS The process of grm,ving plants, primarily food producing ones, in liquid or sand with added nutrients rather than soil.
MICRO WATER RECHARGE BASIN Artificial station in which water is collected into a storage cistern and directly pumped back into the aquifer and/or cleaned to then be pumped back out for gray water usage.
INFILTRATION TRENCHES/BIO-SWALES An earthen depression utilized to collect and infiltrate larger amounts of stormwater, serving to support vegetation and recharge groundwater. IMPERMEABLE SURFACES Any material surface that does not allow water to flow through, such as roofs, streets, and sidewalks. 12

This water is then sent west through 7 pumping stations and 4,600 meters long. The water is pumped at a steady 3mph and meeting only one water treatment plant before it is brought to downtown Las Vegas. As of recently Las Vegas has been under pressure to reduce its wateru se due to the quickly lowering levels of lake mead.

Manufacturing is a main source of income in LA economy. Computer, electronic products, and fabricated metal are distributed both domestically and nationally, which allow LA to be one of the world trade and financial center. Tourism and entertainment are also important to the city.4
Los Angeles is a highly dense city that has population 8,535 people per square mile. The most densely populated neighborhoods are Koreatown, Westlake, and East Hollywood.5 Most people do not own a house6 and prefer to drive alone to work more than using public transportation.7
A majority of energy and water used in LA are imported from other states. Coal plants in Utah feeds electricity to the city8 while the Colorado river and nearby water sources provide water9. However, the city is rich with natural gas and ground water basins that are locally usable resources. 8,9

Los Angeles contains two mains water infrastructure: aqueducts and wells, as the city relies on both local and imported water sources. For local water, active wells are placed around the city to pump up ground water from the basins and then deliver to Department of Water and Power (LADWP) before the water is distributed to household. Aqueducts and canals spread imported water to different parts of the city, so that the water demand can be satisfied. Waste water will be treated via treatment plants. 13-16

Phoenix metropolitan area is the 11th largest by population in the US, with approximately 4.73 million people as of 2007. Although the city is large, it has a low-density and is considered polycentric. Phoenix is made up of a cluster of urban villages that make up the greater Phoenix area.10,11
The city of Phoenix has two major goals to improve the natural environment. The first is to add 150 miles of paths, green-ways and bike ways through out the city. The second is to reduce the urban heat-island through green infrastructure as well as by doubling the current tree canopy to 25% by 2030.12

PHOENIX’S WATER INFRASTRUCTURE The majority of Phoenix’s water comes from either ground water or the Central Arizona Project. Currently Phoenix is a net-positive contributor to groundwater using only 2/3 of its allocation from the Colorado River and diverting the other 1/3 toward groundwater recharge. Additionally the city recycles 89% of its wastewater for uses, such as irrigation and cooling for the Palo Verde Nuclear Plant.1

Rotterdam’s social goals are to decrease the unemployment rate, and create a healthier environment, community, and culture for the generations to come. This means making sure that people living here in the future will not run out of resources, and have a non-toxic environment to live. 2
Rotterdam’s chase to find methods of creating renewable energy sources for the future health of the city will help to bring the port of this city a better reputation as well. The port’s reputation will directly affect the welfare of this city overall, especially with trade. 2
Eighty percent of homes within the city of Rotterdam are rented. Rotterdam is focused on reducing the amount of energy consumption, and building with intention, to help reduce carbon emissions in the future. By reducing carbon emissions, the hope is to slow down climate change. 2
The environmental goal in Rotterdam is to save energy and produce renewable energy. This is driven by climate change, caused by the emission of carbon. The Adopt Clinton Climate Initiative was set in place to reduce carbon emissions by fifty percent in 2025 compared to 1997. 2

ROTTERDAM’S WATER INFRASTRUCTURE Rotterdam has some issues with flooding due to the fact that the climate is changing and sea levels are rising. To combat this, specifically with rainwater, Rotterdam has started to building large basins in which water is captured during rainfall and used during dryer times. These pieces of water infrastructure are called watersquares. Rotterdam also encourages for paving to be replaced with vegetation or water features (like green roofs) to somehow slowly get the water back to the ground, this will reduce negative run-off. 2

Seattle’s water journey starts at the watershed, 100,00 acres of protected land, that then travels to treatment plants. After the water is treated, the water then travels through 1,800 miles of piping to be delivered to Seattle homes. Currenlty, unused water is stored in reservoirs throughout the city and state. It takes roughly 650 workers to keep the water clean, flowing, and readily available.2 roughly 650 workers to keep the water clean, flowing, and readily available1
