Section 4. Implementation | 63Pleasanton Climate Action Plan 2.0 4.1 Overview Since the 2012 CAP, the City of Pleasanton has made progress in reducing emissions, developing innovative sustainability initiatives, and building community support for climate action. CAP 2.0 was developed to build on key climate action successes and provide a pathway to reach state decarbonization targets by 2045—and exceed state targets for 2030. Importantly, the City prioritized a short list of highly impactful actions to improve implementation potential over the next 10 years. To take the CAP 2.0 from vision to action will require City leadership and commitment, collaboration with the community and implementation partners, a realistic plan for funding and implementation, and strong monitoring and evaluation of progress. The following pages identify how the City will work toward CAP 2.0 goals: • The implementation Plan outlines the cost, staff allocation, timeframe, responsible City department, and other considerations for implementation. • City Leadership and Accountability identifies the role of City Council and City staff to lead implementation and report on progress. • Key Partnerships emphasize the importance of collaboration. • Equity & Other Considerations describes key areas of focus to support equitable implementation, specific actions that impact the most vulnerable communities, and the importance of keeping people at the center of the City’s climate mitigation and adaptation work. • Funding and Financing highlights the many resources available to support CAP 2.0 actions, specifically those that are the most expensive. • To ensure that climate action and adaptation strategies meet the needs of the community and use resources efficiently, Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting lays out a series of key performance indicators (KPIs) and a reporting structure so that City staff can report progress to Council, gather feedback from and update the community, and measure successes. Following CAP 2.0 adoption, a consolidated list of actions and the implementation plan will be available in CAPDash, a cloud-based reporting dashboard.
