This agenda reflects RPA’s commitment to our core values of health, prosperity, sustainability and equity. It integrates real concerns, lived experiences, and technical insight to provide concrete, strategic planning recommendations to help the next mayor deliver a more efficient, healthier, and more prosperous city for all.
