4.A. FINAL CLIMATE ACTION & ADAPTATION PLAN (WEHO CLIMATE ACTION) [J. KEHO, R. EASON]:
SUBJECT: The City Council will receive a final version of 'WeHo Climate Action' - the City's Climate Action and Adaptation Plan. WeHo Climate Action celebrates the City's significant achievements in reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions over the last decade by actively implementing actions outlined in the 2011 Climate Action Plan and enacting sound environmental policies and programs. Most importantly, it builds upon this progress to chart a new path forward for carbon neutrality, adapts the City to current and future extreme climate conditions, and further champions the actions needed to meet the global and local challenges of a changing climate, including how to meet the needs of the community members most affected by climate change. The City Council will also consider directing staff to prepare and issue a request for proposals to develop Equitable Building Performance Standards for Existing Buildings in West Hollywood, per 'WeHo Climate Action' Subaction EN-1A under the Energy Section.
