The City is also continuing to partner with South Alameda County jurisdictions on green <br />building policies and public outreach. The next planned event is a solar providers' fair with either <br />PGE or a local non-profit. <br />Fleet Vehicles <br />Comment: Consider specifying electric vehicles instead of hybrids. <br />Response: CAP has been modified to say "electric or hybrid" wherever "hybrid" was stated <br />previously. <br />Transportation-related Emissions <br />Comment: It was noted that the City has achieved great success in Transit Oriented <br />Development and that the TOD received the highest score in the Cost Benefit Analysis, <br />which ratifies the current City Council's actions in supporting TOD and the subsequent <br />developments in the downtown. <br />Transportation has the largest share of emissions, much of which is related to mobile <br />sources, such as vehicles and trucks that come through our highways. It was recommended <br />that ACTIA shift funds away from road improvements into transit. <br />Response: Staff will continue to work with regional agencies to promote both TOD and other <br />emissions-reducing measures. <br />Waste <br />Comment: Waste treatment discussion doesn't seem to address the Oro Loma Sanitary <br />District (OLSD). Waste-to-Energy efforts by Waste Management Authority should be <br />mentioned. <br />Response: The City has just hired a consultant, HF&H, to prepare a zo-year diversion plan. As <br />part of that effort, more ambitious strategies for waste reduction and recycling for the entire <br />city (OLSD included) will be developed. The waste section of the CAP will be amended to <br />include mention of the Oro Loma Sanitary District. <br />Efforts such as those of Waste Management will be reported to the City Council in subsequent <br />reports during the Implementation and Monitoring/Verification phases of the Sustainability <br />effort. <br />
