Straws on Demand Pilot Program
Starting Earth Day, April 22, 2018
Thank you for volunteering to be part of the Straws-on-Demand pilot program! Participation is simple:
Why Straws? According to the National Park Service, Americans use 500 million plastic drinking straws
every day, enough to fill 125 school buses with straws. However, when offered a straw, 50 to 80 percent of
consumers choose not to take one. Some cities that have already banned plastic straws in restaurants
include:
• Seattle, WA
• Davis, Malibu, and San Luis Obispo, CA
• Fort Myers, Florida.
Pilot Program Participant Instructions
1. Only offer straws to customers on demand (do not automatically include a straw with a beverage),
and
2. Only offer paper or reusable straws, no plastic or plastic-like "compostable/biodegradable" straws.
The pilot phase of the program will run for three months, from April 22nd, 2018 through July 22, 2018.
During the pilot, please take note of the following data points to help us evaluate success of the program:
• Number of straws used before the pilot
• Number of straws used during the pilot
Cost of regular straws vs. cost of paper or reusable straws used
• Customer feedback during pilot
Staff feedback during pilot
If you have any questions during the pilot, please contact:

Ashland's Climate Vision for 2050 is to be a resilient community that has zero net greenhouse
gas emissions, embraces equity, protects healthy ecosystems, and creates opportunities for
future generations. Read more about City of Ashland's Climate and Energy Action Plan at
www.ash land.or.us/climateplan.
I IIIIIII
ma a iri d rargets
The CEAP lays out a foundation for the City of Ashland to reduce its emissions and improve its
resilience to future impacts of climate change on its environment, infrastructure, and people.
The plan's overarching goals and targets focus on addressing climate change risks by reducing
Ashland's emissions of climate pollution ("climate mitigation") and preparing the city for
unavoidable impacts ("climate adaptation"):
,,,,
,,,,,, n ,-:irchi17g Goal I - Reduce Ashland's contribution to global carbon pollution
by reducing greenhouse gas emissions associated with City, residential, commercial,
and industrial activities.
➢ For the Ashland community: Reduce overall Ashland community greenhouse
gas emissions by 8% on average every year to 2050.
➢ For City of Ashland operations: Attain carbon neutrality in City operations by
2030, and reduce fossil fuel consumption by 50% by 2030 and 100% by
2050.
CEAP Overaf-chif7g Goal 2 - Prepare the city communities, systems, and resources
to be more resilient to climate change impacts.
kireas
The CEAP is primarily organized by focus areas. Each focus areas contains associated goals,
strategies, progress indicators, and identified actions. The CEAP identifies six focus areas for
climate action:
9 Buildings and Energy
0 Urban Form, Land Use, and Transportation
0 Consumption and Materials
0 Natural Systems
0 Public Health, Safety, and Wellbeing
Cross-Cutting Priority Actions
The CEAP identifies more than 60 priority actions. Each of these actions offer a meaningful path
to emissions reduction and have been evaluated based on relative cost, efficacy, and co-
benefits. Actions that result in direct emissions reduction merit added focus.
1�11ril I e 111I Iin t a ti oIl IIIIlrrl IIII IIII g
Each individual action is assigned to an implementation phase, either:
• Phase 1: complete by 2020
• Phase 11: complete by 2025
Phase I Actions are slated for near-term commencement and were determined to have met one
or more of the following criteria:
• Easy, early wins
• Foundational steps
• Complex, but important initiatives
• Windows of opportunity
Phase 11 actions include all actions identified in CEAP, that do not meet Phase I criteria above.
Phase 11 actions may be initiated in Phase 1, but not at the expense of completing Phase I
actions. Priority actions not meeting these criteria are assigned to Phase 11.
Act"] Irl S r alkerv: lkrrii�plbir rier rtatibin (201mnnnnni)
The CEAP document includes a "Year 1 Implementation Summary" to guide City staff during
the initial implementation. The majority of these activities have been completed and are
detailed in the table below. Staff expect the remainder of the year 1 implementation activities
will be completed in March or April 2018, close to the first anniversary of the plan's adoption.

Phase I implementation will be the focus of CEAP activities in 2018-2019. The CEAP identifies
more than 25 specific actions for Phase I implementation, all of which are high priority and
slated for completion by 2020. Phase I actions are intended to provide intial climate action
momentum, leverage windows of opportunity, and begin setting the stage for longer-term
actions.
CEAP staff hired in late 2017 has begun coordinating with City Departments and community
members to establish timeslines and project leads for all Phase I actions. The ad-hoc CEAP
Implementation Committee is working alongside staff to recommend key performance
indicators, which will be used in future reports to track incremental progress toward adopted
CEAP goals.
To lend focus to initial 2018 implementation efforts, major CEAP activities for 2018 are grouped
into the following themes:
0 Energy
0 Transportation
0 Outreach
0 Planning
Saving energy and building more renewable energy resources are essential components of
Ashland's carbon reduction goals. Ashland has offered energy efficiency and renewable energy
incentives to the community for many years, but there is substantial room for additional uptake.
Changes in Ashland's Net Metering resolution mean there is substantial opportunity for
community-driven, or other types of group solar projects. Efficiency measures and net-metered
solar are especially valuable as they reduce Ashland's overall electricity usage and create direct
reductions in GHG emissions.
There are several proposals for developing larger community and utility solar resources, which
could allow Ashland to incorporate additional low carbon energy in the the electric utility
portfolio. Costs and feasibility of these larger renewables projects will be assessed in 2018.
Key .i
BE-1-3. Facilitate and Encourage Solar Energy Production.
BE-1-4. Enhance Production of on-site solar energy from City facilities.
BE-2-1. Increase outreach efforts to expand participation in energy efficiency
programs and promote climate-friendly building and construction.
BE-3-1. Use results from City Facilities Energy Audit to prioritize City Facilities Capital
Improvement Plans (CIPs) and maintenance improvements.

Two primary opportunities for Ashland include reducing the number of vehicle miles travelled
(VMT) and to facilitating the use of higher-efficiency vehicles, especially electric vehicles (EV).
In practical terms, this means helping Ashlanders drive less and walk/bike more. The Ashland
community has a substantial opportunity to reduce emissions by electrifying transportation,
which is more efficient than fossil fuel alternatives and has the ability to be fueled from low-
carbon sources such as from solar or wind energy.

Outireadh
Ashland's Climate and Energy Action Plan is comprehensive and offers guidance to citizens,
businesses, and City operations alike. There is a significant amount of outreach and education
needed to ensure broad understanding, continued public support of the plan.
CEAP staff are working to build a website and Community Engagement Plan to increase the
plan's exposure and provide a comprehensive resource. Both the website and the engagement
plan will be significant projects in 2018 and serve as a foundation for initial (and future)
implementation.
The Implementation Committee will receive frequent updates on the status of CEAP actions and
will be an important conduit for relaying updates to other Commissions. In addition, the
committee will be involved in the creation of the Community Engagement Plan and will have the
opportunity to engage with CEAP action leads.
