Energy & Climate Change Action Plan Meeting #7 Feedback Form

Meeting #7 of the Energy and Climate Change Task Force is focused on soliciting feedback on a working draft of the Energy and Climate Change Action Plan. Feedback will help City staff to refine and revise the Energy and Climate Change Action Plan working draft before additional review by City staff, City Commissions, reviews by the Energy and Climate Change Task Force, a public comment period, and consideration by the Alexandria City Council. City staff are seeking feedback on the working draft of the Energy and Climate Change Action Plan by November 2, 2022. City staff will attempt to include as best possible any feedback received after November 2, 2022.

Updating the Action Plan will help the City respond to climate change impacts and environmental emergencies and align with the 2019 updated Environmental Action Plan 2040 (EAP2040) and build upon existing City energy, greenhouse gas reduction, and climate action efforts. The EAP2040's targets include reducing community-wide greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030 and 80 to 100% by 2050, supported by significant state and federal contributions. The City’s update of the Energy and Climate Change Action Plan will leverage regional priority actions identified in the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments (MWCOG) 2030 Climate and Energy Action Plan, as well as the climate action planning efforts underway or completed by the City’s regional and national peers.
