Resolutions, Ordinances, or Other Climate Legislation

This assessment is based on six pieces of legislation from the Cities of Antioch and Arcata. The local governments have adopted ordinances, resolutions, and proclamations addressing climate and sustainability across multiple areas. Key focus areas include prohibiting oil and gas operations to protect air quality, reducing vehicle idling emissions through community education, establishing greenhouse gas reduction targets (25% by 2020 and 80% by 2050), transitioning municipal operations to renewable electricity, and tracking emissions inventories to monitor progress. The legislation also emphasizes community engagement, particularly for vulnerable populations, and integrates climate action with broader city planning efforts in housing, transportation, and resource management. Together, these measures represent a coordinated approach to lowering emissions, improving air quality, and building climate resilience over the next five to ten years.

Key programs address low-income weatherization, cooling centers, multilingual community outreach, and targeted investments in five environmental justice neighborhoods.
