Information about actions taken since climate emergency declared

Hugh Davenport made this Official Information request to Hutt City Council

The request was successful.

From: Hugh Davenport

Dear Hutt City Council,

Since you declared a climate emergency, I would like to know what tangible steps you have taken to improve the climate change problem. I would also like to know what steps you have planned for the immediate future, with timelines and action points required.

For all of these actions made or planned, I would like to see data showing how it improved (or will improve).

If no actions have been made or planned to date, I would like to request the reason why the council declared an emergency then did nothing to follow through with that declaration.

Yours faithfully,

Hugh Davenport

Dear Hugh

 

Thank you for your email.

 

There are three committee papers that update or provide to Council on the
work under way to adapt to climate change impact, and to reduce Council’s
emissions and city-wide emissions.

 

With regard to adaptation to climate change impacts, I have attached the
relevant paper to the Policy and Regulatory Committee from 15 July 2019.

 

With regard to the work to reduce Council’s organisational emissions and
city-wide emissions, there are two papers that are due to be considered by
the Policy and Regulatory Committee on 2 September 2019. These two papers
will be available later this week (from 29 August), and you will be able
to find them on our Hutt City Council website at
[1]http://infocouncil.huttcity.govt.nz/ (search for the Policy &
Regulatory meeting for 2 September, and then click on the pdf document in
the Agenda column).

 

Kind regards
