Todd seconds. <br />X. Discussion and Direction Item: LSAB Budget Recommendations- 25 Minutes <br />a. Allison Kay, LSAB Chair with support from Hannah Miller, <br />Sustainability Manager <br />See slides and topic in packet for list of suggestions. <br />Capstone is a 9 mos project <br />b. Public Comment (3 minutes per comment) <br />Cathern (online attendee) - Feels the budgetary proposal might be a very practical response to current <br />political climate. However it feels like the focus becomes data gathering and communications as stated. <br />What are you giving up? <br />John - Boulder Country GHG inventory breaks down by towns in the county. Can we use this and save <br />money vs creating or own? Secondly almost all of our reduction in carbon footprint is from Xcel's <br />reduction in emissions factor. City of Louisville hasn't cut emissions, and he calculates we have 25-30% <br />more reductions to achieve. How will these plans cut our emissions another 25-30%? <br />Tamar - Question re: yard signs. When this was discussed, wasn't sure what that is? Is it duplicating what <br />industries are already doing? Hope we aren't putting plastic signs out that "we love the earth." If we are <br />talking about GHG, and we are looking at overall increase in population growth, it is important to look at <br />both per capita and overall emissions to ensure we understand environmental effects, especially in the <br />WUI. Thinks code rewrite will help streamline the development process (per council guidance) but <br />would like to see someone in sustainability who can review codes, etc. Realizes there may be associated <br />costs here. <br />RJ Harrington - Question - does Hannah's recommendation replace Allison's? If so, great If not, if there is <br />a sustainability event budget, he recommends it's planned with the metroplex calendar. There is so <br />much duplication in calendaring, it's hard to break through with all the competition. <br />c. LSAB Discussion and Direction <br />Kevin - in transition from CAP to Workplan discussion, there is $25k for development of a strategy for <br />community engagement. What about considering membership in the Sustainable Neighborhoods <br />5 <br />
