The idea took a while to catch on with local city governSuch “green” driveways are made of permeable surfaces that absorb rainwater and car pollutants, prevent- ments. In Palo Alto for instance, previous city ordinances ing them from running off into the storm-drain system prevented homeowners from building non-cement or asphalt driveways. But in 2001, that city’s council passed an — and ultimately polluting the Bay. Carpenter said that with so many solid surfaces — ordinance allowing permeable materials, such as grass or including roads and sidewalks — on the ground already, green driveways are an excellent way to allow water to See DRIVEWAY, page 30 A MARCH 16, 2007 ■ MOUNTAIN VIEW VOICE ■ 29 Home+Garden as a result, solar heat reflects off the concrete, causing hotter air temperatures. Driveways that use grass are an antidote to this, creating an air-conditioning effect by transpiring water back into the air. For its part, Mountain View has no ordinances regulating driveway materials. (However, city law requires that at least 50 percent of a front yard be landscaped with a permeable surface not designed for auto use, said former city planning manager Whitney McNair.) NORBERT VON DER GROEBEN A green driveway on Oxford in Palo Alto. DRIVEWAY Continued from page 29 gravel, to be used for residential driveways. Bob Morris of the Public Works Department in Palo Alto said the city supports green driveways and encourages developers to prevent storm water runoff. He added that green driveways are ideal for decreasing the amount of water and pollutants in the storm-drain system. “We didn’t need to accommodate large volumes of water before; but as more buildings got built, there was more water runoff, overwhelming capacity in the storm system,” Morris said. “We want to make sure the water that goes into storm drains is as clean as possible. The cleaner it is, the better it is for the fish, the Bay and the environment.” Besides controlling water runoff, green driveways also mitigate the “urban heat island effect,” according to the Environmental Protection Agency’s Web site. As an urban center grows, more and more concrete is used for parking lots, roads and buildings; and car-exhaust fumes the grass can handle, it’s important to let the plants rest and regenerate from time to time. Gravel pave works similarly, with a plastic grid set above a porous base. Most gravel driveways eventually compact over time, but usually the grid prevents the gravel from lodging in the soil sub-base.

The funny thing is that urban planners ners drew up the land into a series of little boxes and kept urban elements — homes, long ago rejected the little-box theory of jobs, restaurants — separated in their city planning. They learned that when you concentrate residential growth in own zoned areas. This increased the distance between urban cores, with shops and restaurants our destinations; to compensate, freeways sprinkled in, you can have a vibrant, C GRAPH COURTESY WIKIPEDIA social, walkable place to live with bona fide cultural opportunities. Yet virtually every community today is growing like Los Angeles did — spreading thin and wide in mile after mile of suburban sprawl. Re-focus the growth Given that our population is exploding around the globe (it’s gone from 3.5 billion to 6.6 billion people in my lifetime), the fact that we need to deal with growth is a demographic certainty. This includes California, where even the optimistic scenarios predict extraordinary growth. The state will add an additional 7 to 11 million people in the next 18 years, according to the Public Policy Institute of California. Currently, however, we are putting that growth into our suburban fringes, making all our metropolitan areas resemble Los Angeles. We know how to design cities better. Portland is an example of a city that has implemented many “smart growth” methods into its urban planning, such See SUBURBS, page 32 Turn your ideas into reality At Gilman Screens & Kitchens we can help with our fully computerized design service.
