Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Open Plans mission is to transform the streets of New York City to be truly livable for the residents of this city by supporting and advocating for sustainable, equitable and healthy forms of transportation and engaging, joyful public spaces. Open Plans uses tactical urbanism, grassroots advocacy, policy and targeted journalism to promote structural reforms within city government that support these livable streets, neighborhoods and the city-at-large.

Streetsblog is a daily news source covering the movement to transform cities by reducing dependence on private automobiles and improving conditions for walkers, bike riders and transit users. Streetsblog reporters have broken important stories about transit funding, pedestrian safety and bicycle policy, making arcane topics accessible - and fun to read - to a broad audience. Streetfilms connects people to idea

IRS990/Desc0StreetsblogNY:Covered every aspect of the most deadly year on NYC streets since the beginning of Vision Zero in 2014. In all, 273 people died on the roads in 2021, the most since 2013.Covered the state legislatures failure to enact crucial, life-saving bills, including the eight-bill package of the Crash Victims Rights and Safety Act. Sammys Law, named for young traffic-violence victim Samuel Cohen Eckstein, would have enabled cities to lower speed limits without asking Albany.Covered how the NYPD not only routinely ignores 311 calls related to traffic safety and cycling issues, putting New Yorkers at risk, but members of the force have also harassed 311 callers. At the end of 2021, the Department of Investigation vowed to probe the NYPD, citing Streetsblogs award-winning coverage.StreetfilmsOur Director of Video Production traveled to Montreal to showcase their newest bike lanes (including the REV - similar to Paris) and Open Streets network.We produced a series of bike count videos on 1st Avenue, 2nd Avenue and Kent Avenue demonstrating how NYC desperately needs wider bike lanes.We produced a series featuring Bike Twitter stars in NYCs five boroughs. These films helped elevate their profiles and get people to see why they do what they do.Open Plans AdvocacyEducated and empowered voters to get to know their candidates. Hosted walking and biking tours with candidates, a radio podcast with candidates, and other events to allow voters the opportunity to ask questions and make better informed voting decisions.Hosted a well-attended bike ride and rally to focus pressure on the Central Park Conservancy and the Parks Department to provide safe, connected bike crossings in Central Park.Hosted Open Streets events on West 103rd Street in Manhattan, working with our partners and program Park to Park 103. One event drew crowds in the 100s with special musical and arts performances. This event provided the tactical research for our Summer of Play report which provided recommendations for the city on how to activate more public spaces.With our Public Space Management campaign, we spoke to most Mayoral candidates. Maya Wiley included our ideas in her Community First Action Plan. We also hosted two panel discussions on managing streets as places and the future of streets. We wrote op-eds in the Daily News and in Streetsblog on outdoor dining and how to make the program robust, permanent and equitable.

IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0Current Year Facts and Circumstances: he following facts and circumstances apply in support of OpenPlans, Inc.s public charity status:1. Although the support percentage dipped below 33.33%, it is still in excess of the 10% threshold. 2. OpenPlans support was primarily public in nature and came from solicitations of smaller dollar value donations from individuals and foundations. 3. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, OpenPlans did not host a fundraising event. OpenPlans did participate in and support Open Streets events, rallies, and host opportunities for advocates to get involved in their work (through walking tours, bike rides, candidate events, etc). This work has actively grown their network and raised their profile, in the hopes of increasing fundraising activities in the future.4. OpenPlans is actively working to broaden its base of support by strengthening its development activities. They are working to increase the size and scope of their board of directors; producing fundraising events and soliciting sponsorships; and increasing the size of their medium-sized donations. They are also looking to raise money for specific campaigns, targeting specific projects in specific neighborhoods and targeting stories of interest to New Yorkers through deep dive journalism. 5. In accordance with its mission, OpenPlans benefits the public by educating New Yorkers about the dangers of traffic violence; advocating for policies and solutions that prioritize walking, biking and transit; and working in coalition with other organizations, people and government to redesign our city in a way that makes it joyful, safe, resilient and robust.
