He creates a holistic vision for healthy communities that are pedestrian and bicycle friendly. Dan is considered an international expert in walkability, bikeability, traffic calming, and road diets. Burden's insights are becoming a model for college courses and lectures in civil engineering, urban planning and landscape architecture departments throughout the country. He has personally helped more than 3,500 communities throughout the world take steps to become more livable and walkable, and his efforts have been covered by sources such as the Associated Press, NBC Dateline, The Discovery Channel, National Public Radio, and many more. Presentation and Perspectives Healthy Streets. Burden describes how healthy street design can make streets safer and more attractive while addressing many of the problems of conventional street design. He explains that healthy streets create healthy neighborhoods, meeting the community's basic needs and dismantling the conventional auto-dominated street hierarchy. Burden argues that conventional street design promotes higher neighborhood speed regulations and tolerances, public safety issues, law enforcement difficulties, faster intersection turning speeds, and compromises in safety, access, mobility, and comfort. He instead proposes healthy street design, accomplished through walkable neighborhood size and mixed uses, interconnected and diverse street pattern, shorter block lengths, traffic dispersion, narrower intersections and lane widths, street furniture and lighting, along with other measures.

It is also a fiscally smart way to use land more wisely. However, few communities consider the important role that the value of land plays in land use planning, zoning, placemaking and capital improvement planning. The goal for Urban3’s lectures is to help a community better understand the cost of development, sprawl and the value of land. Joe Minicozzi, Urban3’s principal and innovative urban economist an d planner, leads the presentations and guides participants to gain a better understanding of the tie between economic productivity and community vitality through land use. The general learning objectives for Urban3’s lectures include: ● Developing an understanding about how land use and zoning effects a city’s economic productivity and vitality ● Discovering the ways land use and zoning policies are connected to built environments, and implications of those connections ● Understanding how tax policy’s role in shaping the built environment ● Gaining new perspective on urban development patterns, and how tax and fiscal policy can fuel market demand for sprawl To find out more about Urban3 and to listen to or watch previous lectures, please visit the following l inks with short videos (3-4 min each).
