Located in the heart of California’s capital city, Policy in Motion is an Emerging Small Business and Underutilized Disadvantaged Business Enterprise focused exclusively on federal and state livability policy analysis, education and implementation as it pertains to transportation and land use plans and projects which improve network management and decrease vehicle-miles-traveled while fostering the growth of beautiful communities and a healthy planet.  In a time where transportation policy efforts are pointing toward economic, environmental & equitable stewardship,  Lauren Michele (Policy in Motion Founder and Author) offers planning practitioners, policy makers, and public participants an understanding of how sustainability policy impacts community values. Her combined knowledge as a practicing transportation planning consultant and sustainable policy analyst has given her a foundation to build a vision for how to connect federal/state funding priorities and legislative developments with local/regional implementation of projects and programs.

Lauren Michele offers services in crafting and implementing transportation plans and regulatory frameworks which work toward complete community sustainability and people-oriented development facilitating access to affordable living near quality jobs, food, schools and health services.

Lotus "POD" Vision for Sustainable Communities

 

The lotus flower was chosen as the symbol for Policy in Motion to represent optimism for a sustainable future through transportation policy and the idea that even — just as a lotus — economically, equitably or environmentally distressed communities can surface from muddy waters to create thriving, healthy & beautiful places to live. Each petal represents key community values often under consideration during the transportation planning and policy development process.
