“…In this regard, several practical approaches are provided to this concept, including horizontal equity, vertical with regards to income and social classes, vertical with regards to needs and abilities, and intergenerational equity (Litman & Brenman, 2012). Horizontal equity focuses on the equal treatment of people in equal circumstances (Bertolaccini & Lownes, 2013), while vertical equity is denoted as the unequal treatment of unequals (Crampton, 2010).…”

Vulnerability has been a major concern in the performance evaluation of transportation networks. In the concept of vulnerability, the key step is to identify the critical link, which are the ones susceptible to severe operational degradation caused by any type of failure. Several studies have been devoted to this issue by introducing indicators that illustrate the network's operational degradation's overall impact. However, the impact of the interrupted network on users can be further evaluated using the inequity perspective. Here, we present a method to assess network vulnerability to operational degradation based on spatial inequity impacts. The importance of a link is determined by calculating the Gini-coefficient of the distribution of added travel time to the users when the link is disabled. Furthermore, the overall impact of link failure is calculated based on the total extra travel time. The final link's importance is determined by the non-dominated sorting method based on the Pareto optimality concept considering both overall and inequity objectives. Measures quantifying overall and inequity impacts of link failure allow planners to determine how this influences the disadvantaged distribution and help them make decisions associated with maintenance plans that consider link failure's equity impact.

“…While the challenges faced by urban districts are not strictly financial, the lack of resources does contribute to the challenge (Crampton, 2010). Research suggests a connection between resources and academic achievement (Jimenez-Castellanos, 2010).…”

“…These challenges are nearly universal, spanning districts coast to coast (Donlevy, 2010;McKinley & Phillis, 2008;Salmon, 2010) from rural (Williams & Nierengarten, 2011) to urban (Crampton, 2010;Ladson-Billings, 2007). In Virginia, one of America's oldest states and a state full of national history, the voting public was slow to accept taxation for the purpose of offering public education that would be completely provided at taxpayer expense (Salmon, 2010).…”

The authors advocate that understanding the relationship between culture, policy, and funding can help the school leader interested in pursuing funds for a new school building or building retrofitting. Integral to this process is the development of school design policy that encourages and supports the concept of the green school as well as securing funding from federal, state, and local sources to sustain the green school in both design and operation. To facilitate the development of policies regarding green schools, agencies, governments, and countries are identified who have developed and implemented policies regarding the construction of green schools. Finally, funding efforts are identified including federal government, state government, non-profit, and business sources. It is imperative throughout the process of developing and constructing green schools that there is a consistent focus on the ability to sustain the green school in concept, design, and funding.
