Climate Action Plan open house in Mankato tonight
MANKATO, Minn. (KEYC) — The City of Mankato’s Climate Action Plan will be a roadmap to reduce local contributions to the causes of climate.
Throughout the process, the City is looking for opportunities to take action, such as decreasing emissions from buildings and transportation. The overall intended benefit is the improvement of indoor and outdoor air quality through a reduction in contributions to climate change.
The Climate Action Plan, funded through a grant from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), has several phases:
- Community Engagement
- Transportation Assessment
- Ecosystem Assessment
- Community Resiliency and Vulnerability Evaluation
- Infrastructure Energy and Efficiency Assessment
- Community Health Assessment
- Community Economic Assessment
- Final Report
The city is looking for input through the various phases and looking for involvement from residents, businesses, organizations and stakeholders who are interested in contributing to the development of the Climate Action Plan.
The initial community engagement will be held on March 18 at the Intergovernmental Center. Additional engagements will be held in the coming months. You can also share your thoughts on Every Voice Mankato.
