Did You Know…
-
Walkable towns increase property tax, sales tax, and business activity while reducing infrastructure and service costs. The result: more net revenue per acre, more resilient local businesses, and healthier city finances.
-
20% of Lafayette’s population is youth (ages 5-17) who rely on walking and biking as a means to grow their independence.
Equally, 20% of Lafayette’s population is 65+. It is estimated nationally that 21% of seniors no longer drive.
-
When you pay for meters or parking tickets in private lots in Lafayette (eg. La Fiesta Square), the funds go directly to a private corporation… not to the City of Lafayette.
