No Neighborhood Left Behind: Common-Sense Safety for All Our Kids
Require safety checklists as part of every school and neighborhood plan, tying infrastructure to building approvals.
Prioritize vulnerable areas (MUDs, PIDs, ETJs) where families are least likely to receive city-funded safety features.
Build partnerships with HOAs, city leaders, and county officials so every jurisdiction is accountable for school zone safety.
Secure resources for public safety and public health in rapidly growing areas, not just the city core.
Guarantee safe travel to and from school by expanding crosswalks, lights, and sidewalks in all neighborhoods.
