BARBARA A. NEUSTADTER


 

Organizational Affiliations:
Principal, Neustadter Associates

Work Background:
In over 25 years of experience in planning and transportation planning, Ms. Neustadter's focus has been on the development and implementation of public policy, strategic planning and financial programs.
Her most noteworthy projects include: the establishment of the first joint development planning process; the development of a Bay Area-wide transit discount program for elderly and disabled people (both at the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District); and the Contra Costa Transportation Improvement and Growth Management Program (Measure C-1988).
For the most part, these efforts were new programs that broaden the purview of the agencies involved through definition of targeted populations and establishment (and re-establishment) of the linkage between land development and transportation investment.
Since 1990, Ms Neustadter has been providing transportation, policy, financial programming and administrative support services to public and private clients.
