This data is being used to target heat islands and center the focus of the City's tree canopy improvement plan on these areas to mitigate the effects of extreme hot days, by increasing shade and reducing albedo effects. More recently, the City will be working with the CAPA Strategies group and participate in a heat mapping study ("Heat Watch") to identify the heat distribution throughout the City and serve as a blueprint of how to reduce heat island effects where possible. The Heat Watch program will serve as the blueprint to target tree canopy improvements, cooling centers, and building retrofits to ensure the equality of access to cooler temperatures throughout the City. We intend to participate in CAPA's Heat Watch in mid-August, 2019.

The City offers rain barrels workshops and high efficiency toilet vouchers. Furthermore, the City has secured funding for a three year contract with the Dropcountr group, who offers a mobile-friendly water conservation app that residents and business owners can use to gain insight into water usage and receive water conservation tips. The app will be rolled out to customers in late 2019.
