Roseville 2040 Comprehensive Plan Chapter 9: Resilience and Env. Protection <br />WHAT WE HEARD <br />Public Engagement <br />Community members had the opportunity to provide Input on Resilience and <br />Environmental Protection during public meetings. Promotion of water quality <br />and conservation, local solar energy Installations, and public transit were <br />common themes. A group of community members also submitted a written list <br />of recommendations, with proposed goals related to greenhouse gas emissions <br />reductions and a rapid city-wide transition to renewable energy. Policy <br />recommendations relevant to this chapter addressed: water stewardship, tree <br />coverage and diversity, electric fleet vehicles, energy-efficient buildings, multi- <br />modal transportation, and waste reduction. <br />CURRENT PRACTICES <br />Roseville's commitment to environmental protection and resilience Is reflected <br />in its participation in Minnesota's GreenStep Cities program, which is avoluntary <br />challenge, assistance and recognition program to help cities achieve their <br />sustainability and quality -of -life goals. This program is based upon 29 best <br />practices, which can be Implemented by completing one or more actions that <br />are tailored to Minnesota cities, focusing on cost savings, energy use reduction, <br />and civic Innovation. <br />Roseville became a GreenStep City In July of 2014 by City Council Resolution, <br />became a Step 2 City in June of 2015, has been working towards achieving Step <br />3, and will continue work towards becoming a Step 3, 4, and 5 City over the <br />next Comprehensive Plan cycle. <br />The City has used this program to document action related to energy efficiency <br />In city facilities and street lighting, land use policies that promote density, <br />multimodal transportation support, solid waste reduction, water management, <br />and more. <br />Visit www.MnGreenSteo.orn to learn more about this program and to see what <br />Roseville and other cities have accomplished.
