In addition, the Sustainability Committee recommends that the City identify other funding opportunities through state or federal agencies to apply for grants for community organizations focused in sustainability and climate change work. Motion passed: 5-0. The Sustainability Committee urges the Mayor and City Commission to adopt an ordinance which would benchmark greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption (with an eye to source carbon reduction) of existing buildings above a set threshold across the city to collect data, in advance of implementing an enforcement mechanism that requires the reduction of energy consumption. Motion passed by acclimation. Sincerely, IT OocuSlgned by: z 0211£6r5717420 Isaiah Mosley Chair, Sustainability Committee
