San Carlos Green Comments on draft Climate Action Plan

San Carlos Green has provided comments and information to the Planning Commission in support of adopting and implementing a Green Building ordinance. City Staff has stated that an option for adopting a Green Building ordinance will be included in errata language for consideration at the Planning Commission hearing on the CAP on Monday, September 21, 2009.

Members of the Sierra Club Loma Prieta Chapter have also submitted comments in support of a Green Building ordinance.

GPAC member Suzanne Emerson has submitted comments supporting adoption and implementation of a Green Building ordinance, explaining the State "CalGreen" code, recommending the CAP waste diversion goal be increased, and suggesting modified General Plan language to help protect city-owned open space from being sold on short notice.

If you would like to submit written comments in advance of the hearing, your comments can be e-mailed to Deborah Nelson, San Carlos Planning Manager at DNelson@cityofsancarlos.org.
