Sustainable City Year:
|
Welcome to the California State University Monterey Bay
Spring 2018 Capstone website for Environmental Studies. The Sustainable City Year Program (SCYP) originated at the University of Oregon as a means to harness the innovation and energy of university students and faculty while supporting cities who are passionate about supporting progressive initiatives but face resource, time, and budget constraints. SCYP came to CSUMB in 2015; first partnering with the City of Salinas, and now rotating to the City of Seaside in 2017-2018. Seaside identified several potential projects for the SCYP partnership in which we could conduct outreach and research that facilitates the City of Seaside’s development in the context of sustainability – as a place that can support economic and political vibrancy, ecological integrity, and a cultural identity that resonates with residents and meets city needs. In the end, our class selected 4 projects, related to Community Inclusion, Tactical Urbanism for Echo Avenue, Fort Ord Assimilation, and Tiny Homes. Click here for the Capstone Final Report |
