Planning Our Future Lancaster: Climate Action
The City of Lancaster is creating its next comprehensive plan! The plan will help shape how Lancaster addresses climate change.
It’s clear that human activities are causing rapid changes to the Earth’s climate, but these changes will bring a mix of major challenges and opportunities to our region. Summers are getting hotter, storms are getting more extreme, and there are thousands of jobs coming on-line in renewable energy, transportation, and energy efficient buildings.
Share your feedback in the survey below.
You'll see examples of solutions that other small cities have implemented that can help us think through how climate action may affect life in Lancaster City. Topics include transportation, housing and energy, and green space.
This project is one of many engagement opportunities to add your voice to Lancaster's next Comprehensive Plan.
About the Comprehensive Plan:
The City of Lancaster is in the process of updating its comprehensive plan, which was last prepared in 1993. The comprehensive plan will serve as a foundation for decision-making as it relates to future development, with a focus on community outreach to help understand what is most important to the local community. #PlanningOurFutureLancaster
