Let’s Flood Tacoma City Council w/ Comments

We need to keep the pressure on City Council to allow the important Charter Review Recommendations onto the November ballot for a vote of the people. Tacoma deserves better and Tacoma residents deserve to live in a city where its governments’ decisions are made by people representing them.

Tacoma deserves a Climate Commission which includes things like:
• Adds a new Section to Article III to require the City to establish a carbon budget designed to reach net zero emissions by 2050.
• Adds a new section to Article III to create a Climate Accountability and Sustainability Commission.
• Provides for an eleven-member commission and establishes criteria for the appointment of the members, including diversity, experience, and expertise.
• Requires the Climate Accountability and Sustainability Commission to track and report on the City’s progress on its climate action plan, including monitoring the carbon budget and other sustainability measures.
