EA THE CITY OF CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT PLEASANTON. November 2, 2021 Community Development Planning Division TITLE: PROVIDE CLIMATE ACTION PLAN 2.0 POLICY DIRECTION REGARDING THE CAP 2.0 ACTION LIST SUMMARY The Climate Action Plan Update (CAP 2.0) has been underway since the start of 2020. The Committee on Energy and the Environment (Committee) has been reviewing background documents and providing direction on various elements of the CAP 2.0. In November 2020, the City Council provided direction on the preferred greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction target pathway, vision, guiding principles, co -benefits, and action selection criteria. Since that direction, CAP 2.0 actions have been developed, extensive outreach has occurred, a quantitative analysis of the actions was completed, and the Committee has recommended a final set of actions to be included in the CAP 2.0. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the City Council affirm staff's recommendation to include a set of 15 primary actions, and 10 secondary actions in the CAP 2.0. FISCAL IMPACT There is no financial impact at this time. Ultimately, adoption of CAP 2.0 will result in direct and indirect financial costs to the City; however, these exact costs will vary depending on the range of actions ultimately selected for inclusion in the Plan, as outlined in this agenda report. Staff's recommended range of primary CAP 2.0 actions would result in estimated annual costs to the City of $112,824, and annual cost savings to the community of approximately $122,214.
