The purpose of the Sustainability and Climate Justice Commission
is to provide the Common Council, appropriate committees thereof,
the City's quasi-judicial boards, and City staff with advisory
research, public input, and analysis for matters related to sustainability,
climate justice and the City's goals as described in the June
5, 2019, resolution adopting an Ithaca Green New Deal.
The duties of the Sustainability and Climate Justice Commission
shall include, as needed, the following:
A.
To advise on issues and programs pertaining to sustainability and
climate justice, such as waste reduction, electrification of buildings,
electrification of the City fleet, renewable energy, equitable distribution
of program benefits, etc;
B.
To review and recommend policies, plans and programs to Common Council
to implement the goals of the City's Green New Deal, including
but not limited to a climate action plan (CAP) and any subsequent
updates, a Green Building Policy for existing buildings, and the Justice
50 program framework;
C.
To monitor progress towards the goals of the Green New Deal, including
the goal that benefits are shared among all of our local communities
to reduce historical social and economic inequities; and
D.
To serve as a means of engaging in community outreach and receiving
community input on the above-described subject matter in a manner
consistent with the diversity, accessibility, and sustainability goals
of the City and in conjunction with all appropriate commissions, as
