Emissions Reduction | Mitigation Actions | 5.4 | Describe the anticipated outcomes of the most impactful mitigation actions your city is currently undertaking; the total cost of the action and how much is being funded by the local government. | 12 | Action description and implementation progress | 2 | As a co-owner of Platte River Power Supply, which provides electricity to the City of Longmont, the City in January of 2018 passed a Resolution to transition to 100% renewable electricity by 2030. In December of that year, Platte River Power Authority's board passed a resource diversification policy to aim to reach 100 percent non-carbon energy mix by 2030. In 2020, Platte River finalized their 2020 integrated resource plan (IRP) "to achieve a minimum of 90% carbon emissions reduction from 2005 levels, based on current technology as well as anticipated advancements. The plan enables Platte River to reduce emissions further should improvements in renewable and energy storage technologies enable a 100% noncarbon energy mix while maintaining strong system reliability and low cost" (https://www.prpa.org/news-releases/platte-river-board-approves-2020-irp/).Longmont, also in 2018 began the process of researching how to create a just transition to 100% renewable electricity. The initial focus centered on the interconnection between energy services, community health and basic needs (jobs was also identified as a focus but was more being pursued in other areas, such as the launch of the Sustainable Business Program). In 2019, the City distributed a community survey and held listening sessions focused on underserved and underrepresented communities to understand interconnections with affordability, access and knowledge of energy services and health. In 2020, the City launched the Just Transition Plan Committee (now the Equitable Climate Action Team or ECAT). The team is a group of Longmont community members partnering with the City to implement equitable climate action through community education, outreach, and the evaluation of City programs to ensure accountability. In 2020, as part of the Climate Action Recommendations Report which was created as a result of the 2019 Climate Emergency Resolution, the ECAT developed equitable climate action policy and program recommendations. These recommendations have been created into an equity checklist that staff in 2021 are working to integrate into City programming. The ECAT is continuing to meet to provide a climate equity lens to City climate action efforts and develop community engagement opportunities.The cost detailed below is about $300,000 for community solar, $2,250,000 for proposed but not yet approved distributed energy resource projects and infrastructure through 2026, and about $100,000 for the Just transition and Equitable Climate Action Team from 2019 to 2026 (this is a rough estimation based on funding spent in 2019-2021). The cost does not detail the amount being spent by Platte River Power Authority to bring on more renewable energy supply. | 01/20/2022 02:27:05 | |||

Climate Hazards and Vulnerability | Climate Hazards | 2.1 | Please list the most significant climate hazards faced by your city and indicate the probability and consequence of these hazards, as well as the expected future change in frequency and intensity. Please also select the most relevant assets or services that are affected by the climate hazard and provide a description of the impact. | 12 | Please describe the impacts experienced so far, and how you expect the hazard to impact in the future | 6 | From 1996 to 2010, 122,455 acres of forest were affected by the mountain pine beetle (MPB) in Boulder County. Current research shows that warming temperatures and increasing drought conditions are driving MPB populations upwards. Warmer temperatures favor beetle activity, increase the stress level for attacked tress, and speed the development of the beetle. Warmer temperatures and drought conditions have been observed to increase the probability of MPB populations switching from endemic to incipient epidemic or epidemic population levels. The combination of these factors creates future climate conditions in Boulder County that are favorable to MPB populations to spread and become larger. If climatic conditions remain favorable for the incipient epidemic population, the MPB populations may spread rapidly across the landscape and become an epidemic population.Additionally, Boulder is affected by the Emerald Ash Borer. The original Colorado detection was in Boulder in September, 2013. In summer, 2016 it was detected in Longmont. All species of ash in Colorado are susceptible – both green and white ash. EAB has cost municipalities, property owners, nursery operators and forest products industries hundreds of millions of dollars.Ash will eventually die without pesticide treatment. Before deciding upon an EAB strategy for Boulder, Forestry staff researched available options and collaborated with multiple state and federal agencies, other city foresters and with leading EAB experts from across the U.S. and Canada. The Boulder EAB strategy includes the following response measures: Tree Planting, Pesticide Applications, Tree Removals, Biocontrols, Wood Utilization, and Urban Forest Strategic Plan. | 01/20/2022 02:27:05 |

Please note that this dataset may contain data from cities or, in some instances, groups of cities at different administrative levels. This includes metropolitan areas, combined authorities, and some regional councils.
When using the inventory data for aggregation, comparison and trend analysis, please note that the inventory data is based on non-verified self-reported city inputs. The reported inventory may not include all emission sources within the city boundary.
This dataset contains data pulled from the CDP Cities North America Authority Region.
