Appendix D: Notes The following excerpt from Formula 2040 clarifies how the DPR plans to address the obesity reduction objective: According to a 2011 report, the County’s adult obesity rate of 32% exceeds the national average of 25% by 7%. Using this figure as a baseline, this objective will be tracked using available public health data from the Center for Disease Control’s Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. It is more important to note that increasing adult obesity is a national as well as County trend with many contributing factors, such as diet and level of physical activity, which cannot be reversed by DPR acting alone. However, DPR can partner with the public health community and other health service providers to promote a healthy, active lifestyle among residents.
