City of Pleasanton <br />Pleasanton Climate Action Plan 2.0 <br /> <br />46 <br />Cumulative Impacts <br />The cumulative projects scenario is overall General Plan buildout for Pleasanton in 2025 plus <br />Pleasanton population projections through 2045. Implementation of the CAP 2.0 would result in <br />reducing use of non-renewable energy resources across the community, in particular with <br />retrofitted buildings and new infrastructure. Implementation of the CAP 2.0 would also increase the <br />production of renewable energy within the City by incentivizing the inclusion of small-scale solar <br />projects in new development and on existing municipal facilities. Additionally, the CAP 2.0 includes <br />strategies to increase the use of active transportation and public transit and reduce VMT within the <br />City, which would reduce transportation fuel use. As the City’s population grows and development <br />intensifies in the future, actions contained within the CAP 2.0 would ensure that planned new <br />development not related to the CAP 2.0 is constructed to strict energy efficiency standards and that <br />VMT is reduced. As the CAP 2.0 would result in decreased non-renewable energy use within the City <br />and would align with existing plans and policies related to renewable energy and energy efficiency, <br />implementation of the CAP 2.0 would result in no cumulative impact related to energy.
