or the citizenry or the City. Out of pocket cost to the City is $0. Long term costs could be prodigious. What other feedback do you have for the Climate Action Plan? • This report is incredibly dense and an executive summary would be helpful. Moreover, a version in lay language for the average resident to review would be even more helpful. I understand the need to provide all of the information, which necessitates a lot of reading, but I think summaries are also helpful for those who accept the basic premises and simply need to know what we are going to do. • Don't miss the opportunity to address the second biggest source of GHG emissions after the fossil fuel sector; the food/animal ag sector. • Truly amazing work. I have never been prouder to call San Leandro my home after reading this proactive, comprehensive, restorative and inspiring plan. • 1 am very concerned about the amount of particulate matter in our "clean" Bay Area air. Our cars at 817 Dolores Avenue are covered with particulate dust (and it's not just pollen) that we breathe into our lungs. Every day there is another layer. I'd like to see this addressed more specifically. I think it will involve education and data. San Leandro is bordered on the west, east and south by freeways, and tires are one of the worst producers of particulate dust. Also, I would like to see trees planted in front of all houses in San Leandro. This will take an education program, to convince people that the air would be cleaner, their streets would be more beautiful, their home temperatures would be moderated by trees in front. Most people have already replaced their clay pipes, so tree roots couldn't do more damage. I understand that Patty has a grant to provide trees. Let's get them to our neighbors! Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this survey. • 1 noticed a few minor errors: o p95 - Page 77 - "...public drinking foundations" should be "...public drinking fountains" o p 155 - Page B-1- "where once climate change hazard leads to another" should be "where one climate change hazard leads to another" o p 156 - Page B-2 - Direct Impacts vs. Indirect Impacts box incomplete o Overall, I think this CAP will go down in the history of Urban Planning as a Darn Fine Document. • This plan will surely make San Leandro a regional if not national leader in the urban fight against climate change. I appreciate the clear, accessible language of the plan, its comprehensive vision, and the meticulous treatment of every issue from hazard assessment and strategies, all the way through to implementation. o First Wednesdays San Leandro discussed the plan at our last meeting; members are excited and inspired, and willing to volunteer to help in any way we can. o Here are some questions and also typos I found: o p. ES-1, paragraph 4: Central tenants of a just... >> tenets o p. 1: This document outlines both the City's successes to date >> both outlines o p. 8: Statement of Land Acknowledgment - We uplift Indigenous cultural practices and traditions as critical solutions to the climate crisis. (How do we know what the practices and traditions are? Where are they applied in this plan and identified as such?) o p. 10 "Sundown town" - not familiar with this term
