On April 23, 2019, City Commission accepted, and authorized staff to use the Sunrise Sustainability Action Plan (SAP) to collaborate with City departments, and community partners on implementing the recommended actions to reduce municipal operations greenhouse gas emissions (GHG), strengthen community resilience, and foster environmental stewardship.
The SAP establishes 18 goals and 94 recommendations for implementation over the next five years, broken down into three Focus Areas: Resource Management, Vulnerability, and Sustainability. The SAP also sets mid-range and long-range GHG reduction targets, reinforcing the goals and objectives of the Mayors' Climate Action Pledge, Resilient Communities Initiative, and the U.S. Conference of Mayor's Climate Protection Agreement.
