Climate Action Plan Comment Form and Reference Documents

The Climate Action Plan will include actions in six different areas, which are shown below. It will include actions that mitigate or reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and actions that will help the community adapt to climate change impacts. Please check out the summaries of potential actions that been evaluated as the most effective and cost-effective, and the most important based on the input we have received so far. Each of the six areas has actions that could be pursued community-wide and actions that could be pursued in City operations.
