Resolutions, Ordinances, or Other Climate Legislation

This assessment is based on five pieces of legislation. Flagstaff City Council has adopted multiple resolutions addressing climate action, including a Climate Emergency Declaration committing to carbon neutrality by 2030, and resolutions urging federal and state action on carbon pricing and clean energy standards. The city has also considered elevating its Sustainability Section to department status to accelerate implementation of its Climate Action and Adaptation Plan. These resolutions focus on emissions reduction through renewable energy expansion and energy efficiency improvements, advocacy for market-based carbon fee policies at the federal level, and a statewide clean energy standard requiring carbon-free electricity by 2030 or 2050. The legislation emphasizes regional climate threats including increased drought, wildfires, and extreme weather, while prioritizing equity and community participation in climate response efforts.

Reports & Planning Documents

This overview is based on two climate planning documents from Flagstaff: a quarterly progress report and the city’s Climate Action and Adaptation Plan. The reports focus on achieving carbon neutrality through building electrification, renewable energy expansion, electric vehicle infrastructure, and waste reduction programs including pay-as-you-throw and community composting. Key initiatives include the Building Electrification Hub, residential solar contracts, and deep decarbonization retrofits targeting 4,500 housing units through 2029. The city aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050 while addressing climate resilience challenges like wildfire risk and reduced snowpack, with particular attention to ensuring affordability and equity for vulnerable populations.
