Section 4. Implementation | 67Pleasanton Climate Action Plan 2.0 <br />4.3 City Leadership and <br />Accountability <br />For Pleasanton to take meaningful action on climate change, it <br />is important that city government leads implementation in <br />partnership with the community and stakeholders and that City <br />Council continue to demonstrate leadership on climate change. City <br />Council will have oversight responsibility for CAP 2.0. They will receive <br />annual updates on the CAP 2.0 progress and make policy decisions, <br />and budgetary appropriations that will facilitate implementation. <br />Staff with dedicated time and resources to climate action are required <br />to ensure the CAP 2.0’s success and to more fully mainstream <br />climate change in existing City operations, policy development, and <br />community partnerships. The City Manager will have an important <br />role to play in allocating and balancing staff time devoted to CAP 2.0 <br />implementation, including consideration of new roles such as a central <br />coordinator for CAP 2.0 implementation and new responsibilities <br />within existing roles such as implementation leads for each sector. <br />Continuation of existing ongoing actions is already accounted for with <br />existing staffing, and an additional 1.6 FTE per year on average will be <br />needed implement primary actions. Adequate staffing will be crucial <br />for success. <br />City staff will use an interactive tracking and reporting dashboard <br />(CAPDash) to manage CAP 2.0 progress, oversee implementation, <br />provide annual updates to City Council, and communicate progress to <br />the public (see Section 4.7 Monitoring for details).
