CLIMATE CHANGE ACTION PLAN UPDATE

CITY OF SAN RAFAEL
CLIMATE CHANGE ACTION PLAN UPDATE PROPOSAL
PROJECT OVERVIEW
This proposal provides a general overview of the tasks, schedule and estimated budget to provide
technical assistance for an update of the City of San Rafael's 2009 Climate Change Action Plan. The
purpose of a Climate Change Action Plan (CCAP) is to compile existing and potential strategies (i.e.,
actions, projects, and programs) that the City's government and the community can use to address
climate change. The CCAP will focus on the efforts San Rafael can take to reduce its greenhouse gas
emissions and mitigate, to the extent feasible at the local level, the potential impacts of climate change.
Specifically, the plan will accomplish the following:
• Incorporate the City's 2015 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventories, which identify sources of
greenhouse gas emissions generated by the community and the local government. These
inventories will be prepared by the consultant under separate contract with the Marin Climate
& Energy Partnership.
• Estimate how these emissions may change over time under a business -as -usual forecast.
• Identify and quantify State actions that will reduce emissions at the local level.
■ Perform a gap analysis to determine the reductions needed through local programs to meet the
State's greenhouse gas emissions reduction goals for 2030 and achieve the City's reduction
targets.
• Provide energy use, transportation, land use, waste, water, wastewater, and natural system
strategies for community and local government action; develop quantitative targets for each
action; and quantify greenhouse gas reductions that will be achieved at the local and
government operations levels if those targets are achieved.
• Incorporate existing sustainability initiatives and planned capital improvement projects.
A key objective is to develop a Climate Change Action Plan Update that conforms to the State's
requirements for climate action plans. In 2010, the California State Office of Planning and Research
adopted revised CEQA Guidelines which allow a local government to streamline project -level analysis of
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through compliance with a greenhouse gas reduction plan contained in
a general plan, long range development plan, or separate climate action plan. Plans must meet the
criteria set forth in section 15183.5 of the CEQA Guidelines, which include: requirements for quantifying
existing and projected greenhouse gases; identifying a level of cumulative greenhouse gas emissions
that would not be considered significant; specifying measures and standards that would ensure
Proposal for San Rafael Climate Change Action Plan Update
achievement of this level; and continued monitoring to track progress. The greenhouse gas reduction
plan, once adopted following certification of an EIR or adoption of an environmental document, may be
used in the cumulative impacts analysis of later projects such as development or infrastructure projects.
An environmental document that relies on a greenhouse gas reduction plan for a cumulative impacts
analysis must identify those requirements specified in the plan that apply to the project, and, if those
requirements are not otherwise binding and enforceable, incorporate those requirements as mitigation
measures applicable to the project.
Since adoption of the revised CEQA guidelines in 2010, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District
(BAAQMD) has been reviewing draft greenhouse gas reduction plans to determine if these plans meet
the State's criteria for GHG reduction strategies that support tiering. While it is ultimately up to the lead
agency to make such an assertion and support it with substantial evidence, BAAQMD provides guidance
as to what Air District staff must see in draft plans in order for the District to consider writing a letter
opining that a draft climate action plan meets the criteria established by the State. In order to ensure
greenhouse gas reductions will be achieved, plans must rely on mandatory measures that are actionable
by the City. BAAQMD's certification requirements include annual reporting on the implementation of
the measures and periodic inventorying of greenhouse gas emissions.
SCOPE OF WORK
TASK 1. DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS -AS -USUAL FORECASTS
The consultant will develop a business -as -usual (BAU) forecast of projected community and local
government operations emissions for the years 2030 and 2040. The BAU scenario projects emissions in
the absence of any policies or actions that would occur beyond the base year to reduce emissions. The
forecasts are derived by "growing" baseline emissions by forecasted changes in population, number of
households, jobs and vehicle miles traveled. The consultant will utilize Plan Bay Area 2040 Projections
and travel demand forecasts developed by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission in the BAU
projection.
TASK 2. IDENTIFICATION OF STATE ACTION S AND THE GAP ANALYSIS
The consultant will identify existing State actions that have been approved, programmed and/or
adopted and quantify the impact these State actions will have on the BAU forecast. State programs to
evaluate and quantify include:
❖ Renewable Portfolio Standard
❖ Light and Heavy Duty Fleet Regulations
❖ Lighting Efficiency and Toxic Reduction Act
•:• Residential Solar Water Heater Program
Proposal for San Rafael Climate Change Action Plan Update
The consultant will prepare a memorandum that summarizes and quantifies the impact these State
actions will have on community emissions, and will quantify the additional GHG reductions needed at
the local level to achieve local and State GHG reduction goals.
TASK 3. MEETINGS WITH THE WORKING GROUP
The consultant will attend eight Working Group meetings. The consultant will prepare and present a
GHG Inventory review for the May meeting, and will prepare and present GHG reduction calculations for
draft programs at subsequent meetings, as needed. Meeting times are estimated to be 3 hours.
TASK 4. CITY COUNCIL STUDY SESSION
The Consultant will attend one City Council study session and participate in presentation and
explanation of technical data as appropriate.
TASK 5. DEVELOPMENT OF CCAP WORKBOOK
The consultant will prepare an Excel Workbook that quantifies potential GHG reductions from the
implementation of local actions that will be included in the Climate Change Action Plan. The workbook
will utilize 2015 emissions as the baseline and will incorporate BAU emission projections and GHG
reductions expected to result from State programs.
TASK 6. DRAFTING OF THE CLIMATE CHANGE ACTION PLAN
All of the prior tasks will be integrated into a comprehensive Climate Change Action Plan for staff
review. Upon staff comments on the administrative review draft document, the consultant will prepare
a revised draft Climate Change Action Plan for presentation to the Working Group. Any necessary
revisions will be made based on the group's input, and a final draft Climate Action Plan will be prepared
for adoption by the City Council.
TASK 7. BAAQMD REVIEW OF THE CLIMATE CHANGE ACTION PLAN
The consultant will submit the draft Climate Change Action Plan to the Bay Area Air Quality
Management District (BAAQMD) for review and comment, and will work with BAAQMD staff to revise
programs as necessary to earn BAAQMD approval.
TASK 8. CITY COUNCIL ADOPTION
The consultant will attend one City Council adoption meeting and revise the draft plan as necessary
based on Council direction. The final Climate Change Action Plan will be provided as a Word document.
