Establish bioretention systems (e.g., rain gardens, bioretention cells, green roofs, planter boxes, bioswales, etc.) to make city landscapes more permeable to help control stormwater

Conduct individual assessments that gauge older adults’ risk of falling and develop personalized approaches to help prevent falls

Establish time-limited, subsidized, paid jobs to help individuals with barriers to employment transition to unsubsidized employment

Create financial incentives or remove financial disincentives to affect consumer choices and incentivize provision of cost efficient health care services

Arrange active transportation with a fixed route, designated stops, and pick up times when children can walk to school with adult chaperones
