Natural Systems | 53Pleasanton Climate Action Plan 2.0 <br />• Partner with the school districts to increase tree canopy on school <br />campuses. <br />• Continue to partner with local organizations (e.g., Go Green <br />Iniative and Living Arroyos) to encourage increased tree canopy <br />and native habitat throughout the city. <br />• Consider a tree well renovation program to increase soil volume for <br />existing city trees and a plan to relieve rooting area compaction. <br />• Update the City tree well standard as needed to provide sufficient <br />rooting space for trees. <br />P14. Soil management carbon sequestration projects <br />Emissions reduction 3,9001 City Cost $35k <br />Co-benefits Community Cost $2.8M <br />The City will increase its carbon sequestration potential throughout <br />the city to offset emissions, increase drought- and flood-resistance <br />of soil, and further SB 1383 compliance. As part of this effort, the <br />following should be considered: <br />Public Lands <br />• Implement carbon sequestration projects on City property where <br />feasible (e.g., soil at City parks, golf courses, and open spaces). <br />• Reduce the use of synthetic fertilizer by amending soil with <br />compost and protecting soil with mulch on new landscape <br />installations. <br />• Partner with Zone 7 Water Agency, East Bay Regional Park District, <br />StopWaste, and other public agencies to expand sequestration <br />potential on public lands within the city’s boundaries. <br />1 Represents carbon sequestration. <br />Private Lands <br />• Subsidize the cost of compost to encourage use of compost <br />throughout the city on private property. <br />• Partner with Alameda County Resource Conservation District to <br />implement carbon sequestration projects on working lands. <br />• Increase awareness of the benefits of land carbon sequestration <br />through education campaigns, consistent with P16. <br />Secondary Actions <br />S7. Carbon sequestration research and tracking <br />Emissions reduction City Cost $0 <br />Co-benefits Community Cost $0 <br />The City of Pleasanton will work with regional partners such as <br />StopWaste and neighboring jurisdictions to develop methods to <br />track carbon sequestration in the urban landscape. The City will <br />stay apprised of leading research and technological advancements <br />available that mechanically and naturally capture and/or remove <br />carbon (e.g., direct air capture and carbon sequestration).
