MINUTES FOR THE CLIMATE & ENERGY ACTION PLAN ad hoc COMMITTEE
Wednesday, September 7, 2016
Siskiyou Room, 51 Winburn Way
1. Call to Order
Councilor Rich Rosenthal called the meeting to order at 3:30 p.m.
Committee members Bryan Sohl, Cindy Bernard, Stuart Green, Jim Hartman, James McGinnis,
Louise Shawkat, Claudia Alick, Greg Jones, Marni Koopman, Roxane Beigel-Coryell, and Isaac
Bevers were present. Staff member Adam Hanks was present. Consultants Andrea Martin and
Jill Simmons were present via speakerphone.
2. Around the Room
Group did an around the room team building regarding how they think the process is going and
one thing they think we can do better.
3. Public Input
Ken Crocker — stated that he appreciated today's around the room check -in and thinks it's a nice
way to start and a good way to improve the process. The wanted to re-emphasise the importance
of using science as a guiding principle in this process. He thinks the group needs more emphasis
on what that 8% per year reduction actually does. How does using 8% per year reduction guide
the selection of the over one hundred actions the group is reviewing? He wanted to know if a
process was in place for making good selections of options. Some of the actions are incremental
improvements but others need to be complete paradigm shifts — or does the group not have
paradigm shifting action in the list of options?
Robert Block -Brown — stated that he has similar concerns as Ken regarding the need for
transformational pieces — those things can be daunting but he believes that education is the key to
making long-term, effective progress. He stated that he just received notification of a discussion
regarding a potential new city hall. This would be a great way for this group to lead by example
in an actual project. The project should include solar, zero -net landscaping, LEED certification,
etc.
James Stephens — gave a review of the recent City Council's approval of the 1 Ox20 ordinance.
He thinks that there are three takaways from this approval: 1) this is a great thing for the city to
have done; 2) the City has to step up and do lots of work now; and 3) the 1 Ox20 ordinance
wasn't giving staff specific direction — this is instead about the Ashland community coming
together. He stated that this ordinance dovetails into exactly what this committee is doing. He
offered to provide technical expertize if this group needs it.
Huelz Gutchen — stated that last night's Council meeting was beautiful — he is glad the Council
made the right choice. He stated that he knows how to do the financing for creating the local
energy, but only on this side of the grid. He stated that the price of gasoline will go up due to

OPEC having no reserves at the moment. He stated that science is measuring and data watching,
but that's not very interesting to most people. He talked to the Land Use Division of the State of
Oregon who have no information on climate change, so they don't know how to make land use
codes to reflect that. However, we can make those codes ourselves.
4. Approval of Minutes
Group approved the minutes of August 17, 2016 with two minor edits.
5. Plan Development
Rosenthal read aloud the committee's Scope of Work as a refresher. He stated that he did so
because this group has now been meeting for one year and he thought it was important to
remember the challenges they are committed to working through.
Rosenthal introduced Jeff Golden and, via telephone, Jill Simmons who gave information on her
experience creating two climate plans for the City of Seattle. She stated that she had a few
lessons from doing those plans including:
1. The plan is both critical and not nearly as important as what we might think it is (i.e. having
an overview of what we hope to achieve is more important than making every single action
`shovel -ready').
2. Remember that the plan is just the beginning — things evolve, change, become more or less
important.
3. Have a clear implementation and check-in/update process.
4. The plan cannot provide enough detail for every action to be ready to go immediately. Lots
of cost/benefit and planning must occur after the plan is in -place (and that's a good thing, or
the plan would never be finished).
5. The plan needs both staff and financial capacity to keep it going (i.e. there needs to be buy -in
from those who will implement the plan whether that's city staff, budget members, or master -
plan creators).
6. The most important role for the committee is to get the community involved and excited
about actions. The group needs to propose ways to keep the community and City connected
on an on -going basis
Group had a short discussion with Ms. Simmons about her thoughts on the current process.
Group decided that there are several topics they still need to discuss, but don't currently have
time in the regular meeting schedule. Rosenthal proposed that the group meet on one or two
Saturdays to tackle the following:
• The ordinance
• Next steps on the l Ox20 ordinance
• How to incorporate science -based targets (does that change the overall goal?)
• How/when to use subject-mater experts
• Should there be a separate consumption -based goal?
Staff will send a poll to determine the best date(s) for this potential meeting.

6.Open House Plan
Group discussed with Cascadia (via speaker phone) the current plan for the open house. Hanks
requested that the group distribute the flyer by the same methods as they did for the previous
open house. He will send the final version next week. Group discussed the desire to have more
clarity on goal choices. They also discussed a desire to have a way to get people more
emotionally involved.
Some members of the group expressed concerns that it was premature to show the public the
actions proposed. Cascadia clarified that these will be shown only as examples of what could be
done — not as items for the public to vote yes or no.
Group discussed whether or not to have a speaker talk about the upcoming ordinance. Mr.
Golden and Cascadia agreed to consider ways to do that.
7. Geos Vulnerability Assessment
Koopman stated that as each community is unique, it is important to do an assessment to
understand our specific community issues. She gave an overview of the process used to create
the report and stated that the focus of the report is on adaptation strategies. She expects that this
assessment will be final soon, hopefully prior to the September 25th open house. Rosenthal stated
that he would prefer if Geos changed the titles in Table 1 from, "solutions" to "potential actions,"
so people don't get the idea that we are implementing these suggestions. Koopman agreed to this
request. The group thanked Koopman and Geos for their work.
8. Strategies and Actions
Mr. Golden gave an overview of how the strategies and actions will be used at the open house.
They need to show at least a small number of actions to help clarify/define the strategies. Group
discussed some of their confusion over the layout of the actions in the packet. Cascadia stated
that some of it might be sorting errors, which will get straightened out. Also, for the sake of
clarity at the open house some actions which were ranked lower by the committee members may
be used as examples, just to show the community the broad range of possibilities to consider.
9. Next Meeting
Hartman asked if the group could alter the early meeting time to 4:30 p.m. Staff stated that the
challenge is in finding a meeting space at that time (the Siskiyou Room is not available) but that
they would search for an alternate space. If none found, the time will have to stay the same.
10. Adjournment
Meeting adjourned at 5:35 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,

Development of the City of Ashland Climate and Energy Action Plan (CEAP) includes an open and inclusive
public involvement process with ample opportunities to inform and involve the public. This public input
summary document provides a high-level overview of notable trends, opinions, and priorities as revealed
through an online survey, in -person comments, and station exercises at the second open house.
The second open house for the Ashland Climate and Energy Action Plan (CEAP), held on September 25,
2016, was intended to capture the community's ideas and priorities for climate mitigation and adaptation
action in the city of Ashland. Specifically, objectives of the open house were to provide the public with an
opportunity to do the following:
4P Learn about the outcomes from modeling Ashland's future greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
profiles.
IIIII� Learn about the results of community climate vulnerability workshops.
nut Learn about and provide input on potential climate mitigation and adaptation goals,
strategies, and actions along the following focus areas:
- Cross -cutting strategies
- Buildings and energy
- Transportation, land use, and urban form
- Consumption and waste
- Natural systems
- Public health, safety, and security
The input compiled from this open house will be used along with input from City staff and the ad -hoc
committee, and together with careful evaluation of potential actions against agreed -upon metrics such as
cost, effectiveness, and feasibility to help identify recommendations for priority actions in the plan.
Specifically, the input will be analyzed and considered in devising the overarching emissions reduction
targets; sectors of focus; and implementation strategies and actions of the plan.
The public were invited to provide input at the open house through a variety of venues, including the
following:
««� Open-ended comment cards: Attendees were provided with small comment cards that
included space for their name, address, email address, and comment.
Online survey: A public online survey that provided space for comments and prioritization of
strategies was provided on iPads during the event.
SMS poll: Attendees could vote on the focus area most important to them by text message
using a SMS poll that was live at the public open house.
Oil Station #1: Ashland's Future Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Attendees could write their
preferences and reactions to the forecast of Ashland's GHG emissions and options for a
communitywide emissions reduction target. Attendees used post -it notes to express their
vote for the emissions reduction goal they supported the most.
411 Station #2: Ashland's Climate Vulnerability: Attendees could learn more about the results
from Ashland's recent climate vulnerability community workshops and comment on what
they see as the most important resources, systems, or populations to pay attention to in
preparing for climate change.
4111 Stations #3-8: Goals, Strategies, and Action — Attendees could review potential goals,
strategies, and actions across the six focus areas of the CEAP. Attendees were given "dot"
stickers with which they could show support for individual strategies. They were also given
$1,000 worth of play money with which to "invest" in the strategies they would most want to
fund through the plan.
In this document, input is organized by elements of the CEAP, such as the emission reduction target,
climate vulnerability priorities, and focus area strategies and actions. Detailed comments and responses
are provided in the following appendices:

�u Set ambitious goals. Voters favored the most aggressive target, 8 percent reduction per year,
and several also pushed for carbon neutrality of both sector- and consumption -based emissions.
Reduce consumption. Though the consumption and waste focus area did not receive the most
investment or votes among attendees, many write-in comments touched on the importance of
consumption reduction goals and education for residents.
AID, Support vulnerable populations. Commenters noted several strategies, such as weatherizing
homes, supporting mental health, or banning shut-off of utilities to those who can't pay bills to
help support the populations most vulnerable to climate impacts.
411 Develop more transit options and bike- and pedestrian -friendly infrastructure.
�u Make this information more widely available. Several commenters suggested making open
house materials available in other places, such as online through Facebook, in city libraries, etc.

Option 1:
40 1 think option 1 is attainable or at least what Ashland should target. If the CEAP is passed & the
city commits to follow up, it might just need this target.
Option 2:
AND, Sector -based emissions target — more likely to succeed because sector -based are more
controllable.
AID, It's aligned with other cities' goals, so shared resources & ideas. It's measurable and achievable.
Option 3:
��I�IQ» We can measure some things well now — others need to be improved, but the goal needs to be
about all emissions.
411 We need to set goals based on the best available climate science. Ashland has a responsibility to
meet our global contribution to slowing climate change. Ambitious goals are best.
m11Q1 8% per year — let's get the consumption emissions down.
IQII Go for carbon -neutral for sector & consumption. The science will catch up.
1 Option 3 is the only ambitious goal to create real change.
IIIIQ I favor option 3 because that is what is necessary. And I think Ashland has the will to do it.
IIIQI (Vote split between Option 2 and 3) Ashland should be a leader and offsets should be local.
w@ Sector targets should be measured annually on an 8% emissions reduction/year. Consumption
goals should be included in ordinance as well and should be integrated into planning.
��IIIQ» 8% per year sounds very ambitious. But I will support and do my part.
411Q1 If at all possible. This is too serious to piddle around.
Other votes:
��IIIQI Household consumption needs to be addressed. People need to be educated about how their
behavior adds to climate change. Need to encourage people to buy (and make!) locally and to
reduce consumption.
41111 Zero GHG emissions by 2040 — pedal to the metal.
�1111111� Our goal should be carbon neutral.
411 The goal should always be 100%. It may be impossible, but we could someday get close.

Total responses = 18
4111 Populations at most risk: homeless, those in poverty, elderly, people with mental illness. All have
limited resources and ability to respond.
411 Improve public transit. Make it affordable and fun to use.
4111 Coniferous forests at risk from reduced water availability and increased risk of catastrophic
wildfire.
4111 Water cycle capture, storage, and release
411V� It is important that historically disadvantaged communities not only aren't harmed, but that they
benefit from actions the city takes and are prioritized.
4111 It is vital that mitigation and adaptation plans are evaluated based on the vulnerability
assessment.
411 The most vulnerable residents — low-income children, elderly, and disabled. Aid with
weatherization and a utility moratorium to protect from shutoffs.
411 For our most vulnerable — need to provide protection against utility shutoffs for those unable to
pay their bills and weatherization. Also, we need cooling and warming centers, a break in electric
rates in summer as well as winter, free air conditioners for low income vulnerable populations,
and a system whereby people check in on their neighbors.
401 Water! Forest. Caring for the forest, thinning to protect large tees and encourage water getting to
the ground. Poor — increasing costs must be subsidized.
ADD, We need to protect our forests and water supply. We should safeguard our food supply by using
permaculture based landscaping for homes, businesses, and college.
411 Handling stress and other mental health issues is important. Resiliency is higher if people are
prepared to help themselves and each other.
4111 The Trouble Makers
411 Puh-leez. This is not wolverine habitat and has not been since the Little Ice Age.
41���1, We need to ensure resources to support the most vulnerable: low income, outside workers,
persons with health issues. Persons with more resources need to help those with less.
4111 Biodiversity (humans move, many plants and animals cannot)
41 Protecting biodiversity and natural system function is very important as they define our region
and can help buffer against impacts.
�1111V� The homeless are first wave of refugees. Build small house communities and pass renter's right
90-day eviction notice. Renters are most vulnerable.
411 You seem to have the human populations concern, so I will speak up for the animal/plan
populations. Because abundant biodiversity = healthy habitat.

^Health^must include mental health. Climate change affects mental health inmany ways, and funding must be
commensurate. Resiliency is increased if people are prepared to deal with stresssothey can help themselves
and each other. Reference: ITRC (International Transformational Resilience Coalition, I think)

Biome. All my $ is put in box to purchase influence like a lobbying champ. Until we address the root cause of our
social + environmental ilk, we are just treating symptoms. Giving us FRN's (Federal Reserve Notes) is just such a
misstep. The Federal Reserve is a tool of the Judeo-Masonic Mafia that must be dismantled in order to make
headway at true saving reform.

I could not join the "dots + money" process because ALL the strategies are important and I am not competent to

I don't live in the city but I've spent a lot of time advancing utility advocacy to prevent shutoffs for low-income
area residents. (I also do this in New Jery, my home base - I see a need to aid low-income residents in
weatherizing homes to make them more energy efficient, provide adequate protection against shutoffs for
those unable to pay their bills due to financial hardship, a system of encouraging people to stay connected and
check on neighbors so people are not isolated when problems arise (putting people at risk of freezing to death,
or deathly heatstroke while alone + isolated), a break on electric bills/eletctric rate, in summer as well as winter
(esp for the low-income) and perhaps free air conditioners for low-income vulnerable populations as well as
community cooling nad warming center).

Ilk All of these strategies are important
Can methane from waste be converted into a usable energy source?
Is there clean electricity? Reduction of energy use should come first. Many offices (city and other)
have lights on all day. There are many ways we could reduce consumption.
Money saved through demand management could be invested in local renewable wind and solar.
iuoV "Maximize efficiency of City buildings, facilities, etc" —A no-brainer.

Two of the six respondents declined to respond to demographics questions. Of the four respondents:
AID, 3 live within Ashland city limits, and 1 lives outside Ashland, but within Jackson County.
411 2 respondents are female, and 2 are male.
3 respondents are of White/Caucasian descent, and 1 declined to answer.
All respondents are over 35.
3 respondents hold an advanced degree, and 1 holds some college or a 2-year degree.
They had the following final comments, concerns, or questions:
AND, This survey is biased and the outcome is predetermined, restriction of private choice and
empowerment of govt. oversight and regulation. It was almost impossible to rank choices since all
the options were undesirable.
There are many options to consider and it is a little overwhelming to keep track of them all. The
committee needs to form a priority or Pareto chart to go after the most effective strategies in
each area.

Memo
DATE:

TO:
CEAP Committee
FROM:
Adam Hanks, Administration
RE: Implementation Plan — Oct 5 agenda item
As the Cascadia project team worked with staff to prepare the materials for the CEAP Committee
meeting of October 5, 2016, it became clear that the agenda item regarding the development of the
implementation plan has considerable connection to and overlap with the goals/targets ordinance
currently under review by City project and Legal staff.
Because of this, the committee discussion on implementation plan will be delayed until the October 15,
2016 LEAP committee meeting where the ordinance discussion was already scheduled to occur.
The implementation plan to be presented on October 15 will contain recommended structure for the
following:
• Advisory level oversight for plan implementation (community plan and City operations component)
• Process for recommendation and approval of plan updates
• General role and responsibilities for CEAP staff position (anticipating committee recommendation)
• Monitoring, evaluation and reporting of plan progress

RE: Vision Statement
At the request of several CEAP Committee members, a discussion regarding the draft vision statement
has been placed on the October 5, 2016 meeting agenda. To assist the committee in this discussion,
below is the current draft statement.
Ashland leads on climate action to foster a resource -efficient, diverse, and prosperous community
with secure and sustainable access to clean renewable energy, air, water, food, and green spaces for
future generations.
Additionally, below is an excerpt from the Public Input Summary report from the May 24, 2016 Open
House summarizing the public input regarding the plan vision.
