The Environmental Sustainability Advisory Board in Lawrence met with Mayor Brad Finkeldei to discuss green initiatives. They proposed an energy benchmarking policy to encourage landlords to improve building efficiency and reduce greenhouse gases. The board also advocated for revising ordinance nine seven four four into a resolution for climate neutrality by 2050, aligning with the countys Climate Action and Adaptation Plan. However, board members expressed concerns about the ordinances lack of action steps and enforcement challenges. Staff shortages, with Kathy Richardson as the sole department member, were also discussed. The group plans to collaborate, rank projects, and provide joint advice to commissioners to push for real policies aligned with county targets.
