Updates from ECO and GRAEF – they were not available. Members discussed the
questions they are looking to be answered in the final report draft, including:
Will there be regular updates to the greenhouse gases inventory?
Will the final report work from March 2020 preliminary report, or the Ten Big Ideas, or

both?
What kinds of progress reports will be provided, and to whom?
What strategies are proposed for getting from the final report to action by the city and
county?
Bruce Wiggins requested that we see the GRAEF Scope of Work, and volunteered to
ask Pam or other ECO staff to share a copy with us.
Report Out on meeting with Supv Coggs-Jones: went well, and she said that we should
look at the new County Board Committee structure to figure out which is the
appropriate committee to go before to present our Ten Big Ideas. Gordie Bennet will
follow up with Kerksick to get a presentation scheduled before the right committee.
We have no further meetings scheduled. People suggested scheduling one in two
weeks—but only if there is progress from GRAEF/ECO to discuss. If not, postpone
meeting to Thursday, September 8, 2022.
Meeting adjourned at 12:13 p.m.
