background
Culver City has welcomed community input as it sets out to re-write the City’s Parkway Ordinances.
Transition Culver City partnered with FlowTownFilms to interview thought-leaders in Southern California on the best practices and uses for the Parkways.
A total of 9 experts were interviewed about the current state of the parkways, what regulations should include, and what could be accomplished by reimagining how the parkways could be utilized.
This deck, and the accompanying film, comprise the findings of our investigation. We hope that the results will inspire helpful dialog in preparing to rewrite the City’s Parkways Ordinance and to help guide community engagement.

A parkway is the strip of land between the street and the sidewalk.Parkways vary in width and condition.
Many house vital city and utility infrastructure.
![Page 5: Transition Culver City: Re-Imagining The Parkways](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032419/55a2ee3b1a28aba9628b47cc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The parkways are owned by the city.But cared for the property owner (except in the case of trees).
Therefore, the city is concerned about public safety and financial liability.
![Page 6: Transition Culver City: Re-Imagining The Parkways](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032419/55a2ee3b1a28aba9628b47cc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
City Concerns
City Infrastructure -Signs, Lighting, Fire Hydrant, Trees
Utilities - Power, Gas, Water
Visibility From The Street For Police
Access To The Street And No Barriers To Car Doors Or Pedestrians
Minimizing Financial Liability From Potential Safety Hazards – e.g.,
Fallen Fruit From Fruit Bearing Trees,If Someone Falls Ill From Fruit/Veg Grown,
If Someone Gets Hurt From Poorly Maintained Benches
Diminished Control Over Standards

We are left with the legacy of turf as the most uniform solution for the parkways.
![Page 8: Transition Culver City: Re-Imagining The Parkways](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032419/55a2ee3b1a28aba9628b47cc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Turf is highly problematic due to the amount of water and fertilizer needed for the grass to flourish.
Excess water, fertilizer, herbicides and other pollutants run into the storm drains.

Equally problematic, compacted turf is an impermeable surface which means that rainfall and water applied to
landscapes do not recharge the water table.

In Southern California, this water is imported.
Wasting fossil fuels to transport.
Depleting other ecosystems.
This is a very expensive practice.
Water costs will increase over time.

We have lived on borrowed time here in California. Everything grows here and we’ve been able to supply the water
it took to provide the lifestyle we enjoy. But we’re past that point...
We live in a false world of having lawns and species of plants that don’t belong here. We are paying the price in terms of water
and displaced habitat. It’s a domino effect that’s coming home to roost.- Patrick Reynolds, Culver
City Parks Manager

While we went in talking about the parkways, our conversations always centered on
improving the health of the watershed.

I’ve been reading about local municipalities looking for multi-benefit solutions from
existing infrastructure… We are looking at Parkways to accomplish multiple goals.

What could re-imagining the parkways accomplish in Culver City?

THE GOALS OF THE PARKWAYS SHOULD TIE INTO THE CITY’S
SHARED VISION
“In everything we do, we need to address the small things but keep the big picture in mind.”
– Patrick Reynolds
![Page 26: Transition Culver City: Re-Imagining The Parkways](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032419/55a2ee3b1a28aba9628b47cc/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
SANTA MONICA’S SHARED VISION IS TO BECOME
WATER SELF-SUFFICIENT BY 2020.
Strategies To Realize Vision:• Ban watering of parkways• Ban sprinklers & front lawns for new residences• When selling property must update to appropriate
low-water landscaping• Hotels must retrofit plumbing fixtures to meet
current green building codes• Per capita goal of 123 gallons per day… down from
134 gallons.http://smdp.com/city-hall-rethinking-water-usage/122562#sthash.Tag6tog2.dpuf
Allows the City to stop spending money with the Metropolitan Water District and
instead produce all of its water locally.

Does Culver City Have A Shared Vision?How Can The Parkways Help Us Achieve That Goal?
Reduce Water Consumption By 75% Per Person Per Day?
Reduce 100% Pollution Runoff Into Ballona Creek Within
Culver City Boarders?
![Page 28: Transition Culver City: Re-Imagining The Parkways](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032419/55a2ee3b1a28aba9628b47cc/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Combined, the parkways represent a meaningful infrastructure resource that could be a means of healing the environment and
accomplishing the City’s Vision.

Perhaps a city wide plan could be developed: neighborhood by neighborhood, street by street.
Each neighborhood could have a specific strategic priority.

The width of the parkway, the existence of water & gas lines, trees,street signs, street lights will all factor in to what is possible.
What can be done?
![Page 31: Transition Culver City: Re-Imagining The Parkways](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032419/55a2ee3b1a28aba9628b47cc/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
REMOVE TURF & REPLACE WITH MULCH (DECOMPOSED GRANITE LESS IDEAL).
This could conserve a tremendous amount of water used per household.
It’s important to educate the public on the methods to remove turf without
pesticides or herbicides.

Native Plantings
Water conservation once established.
Deeper roots create better soil composition resulting in better water capture.
Provides habitat for pollinators.
Select plants consistent with parkway goal. (water conservation vs. storm water treatment)

Daisy-chaining curb cuts slow the flow of storm water and magnifies the benefits.
By the time the storm water flows through the daisy-chain, it is much cleaner as it flows into the storm drain.

BEST PRACTICES:Curb Cuts
• Residents should work with the city to develop a plan that takes into account utility lines, street lights, signs, trees, etc.
• Curb cuts should be a minimum of 18 inches, preferably 24 inches.
• Cut on a 45 degree angle reduces the chance of breakage/trip hazard.
• Utilize spray paint to mark the cuts before cutting.
• Hire a licensed concrete contractor to make the curb cuts.
• Make sure the clean out areas are open and easy to remove debris.
![Page 39: Transition Culver City: Re-Imagining The Parkways](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032419/55a2ee3b1a28aba9628b47cc/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Bioswales are wide but shallow ditches with sloped sides filled with native plants, mulch and “armoring” rocks that maximize the time water spends in the swale so pollutants are removed
and the soil can soak up as much water as it can.

![Page 40: Transition Culver City: Re-Imagining The Parkways](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032419/55a2ee3b1a28aba9628b47cc/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
BEST PRACTICES:Bioswales• Residents should work with the city to develop a plan that takes into account utility lines, street
lights, signs, trees, etc.
• Before digging, call underground service alert at 8-1-1.
• Digging deeper (where possible) allows for better sediment drop and increases the amount of time between maintenance/re-digging out of the bioswale.
• Make sure the bioswale mimics the same grade as the street.
• Plant palette should be selected based on parkway’s performance criteria (filtration vs infiltration) e.g., Sedges hold up equally well to being inundated with water and dry conditions.
• Utilizing native plants and grasses have deeper root systems which breaks up the soil compaction, holds onto water longer, and provides habitat for butterflies, bees, birds, lizards, etc. Once native plants are established they need little to no water.
• Utilize smaller mulch as it decomposes faster resulting in healthier soil.
• A combination of the smaller green and brown mulch tends to knit together resulting in a more stable base for the bioswale.
• Do not over-plant the parkways – allows place for people to walk through.
• Provide an 18 inch clearance from the curb to allow for car doors to open.
• If boulders are used in the parkway, make sure there is clearance for car doors.
• Take into account the surrounding neighborhood when designing elements that will go into the parkway- e.g., small rocks in the parkway not advisable near a school as children might be tempted to throw the rocks.
![Page 41: Transition Culver City: Re-Imagining The Parkways](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032419/55a2ee3b1a28aba9628b47cc/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Mulch Tree Basins are placed in front of curb cuts and are designed to slow the flow of storm
water and filter out pollutants.
The basin is a donut shape 8 inches below the gutter,
armored with large cobbles or recycled concrete and has mulch
and native plantings.
Mulch tree basins can be part of a bioswale or stand alone.
They are particularly well suited for parkways that do not
have enough room for a bioswale.

BEST PRACTICES:Tree Wells• Create one curb cut that allows water to flow into, around the basin,
and out the curb cut.
• Dig a donut shape 8 inches below the gutter.
• Armor the basin with rough cobbles or recycled concrete. Make sure the armoring materials are light and contrast against the mulch so people are less likely to walk through the well and trip.
• Utilize smaller mulch as it decomposes faster resulting in healthier soil.
• A combination of the smaller green and brown mulch tends to knit together resulting in a more stable base
• Provide an 18 inch clearance from the curb to allow for car doors to open.

It’s like sex. Planting stuff is the easy part. Caring for plants, like children, takes commitment.
We need to incentivize people for caring for this infrastructure. We are developing a feedback app that tracks the success
rate of trees and we could expand it to include plants, bioswales and tree wells.
After 5 years, people who have a 90% success rate of keeping the parkways maintained, could be entered into a $10K lottery.

Community Building
This parkway was designed with plants that would complement the Pine Trees.So, we can design parkways with plant and community in mind.
A lovely reminder to step outside our homes and engage with our neighbors!

FOOD SECURITY
For Parkways where there are no trees and enoughclearance, consider installing dwarf fruit or nut trees.
