Climate Action Plan

At a glance

On March 15, 2022, the Coronado City Council approved Coronado's Climate Action Plan and directed staff to move forward with preparing a draft implementation plan. The Climate Action Plan outlines ways the City can reduce its greenhouse gas emissions within the City to support the state’s strategy. The plan documents current and ongoing sustainability efforts and provides a roadmap to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the future.

Coronado has a long history of implementing sustainability practices, including:

constructing green buildings
conserving water
developing a bike and pedestrian friendly community
and other environmentally friendly practices.

Reduction measures may include promoting rooftop solar installations and increased use of electric vehicles and charging stations.

Community Input

The community participated in the process by providing input online and at three public workshops focusing on how the community could reduce its carbon footprint. The implementation plan with recommendations, related costs and benefits is planned for presentation to the City Council in the summer of 2024. The City Council also asked staff to back information on Community Choice Aggregations, or CCA’s, which are entities that allow member cities to purchase cleaner sources of energy for residents and businesses inside the city limits.
