    Options Used

    Work with local, state and federal partners to update floodplain data, maps, policies and programs to reflect climate change projections and variability and improve floodplain function.

    Relevant Options

    Work with utility companies to increase the amount of electricity from renewable sources to improve air quality, diversify power sources and increase the resilience of the power grid. Encourage local businesses to benchmark, disclose, and reduce energy use in their buildings. Consider creating a city- sponsored recognition program for businesses who conserve energy. Work with utility companies to address local impacts of power operations.
