Residents can expect continued testing of waterway-cleanup technology, expanded electric-vehicle charging access and further planning for sea-level rise, heat and stormwater risks. The City plans to update its Sustainability Plan internally, potentially covering net-zero goals, heat mitigation and resilience, while reducing reliance on outside consultants that previously cost about $200,000. The board also reviewed new rules restricting certain plastic and metallic decorations at special events and allowing optional use of at least 60% recycled composite materials in specified construction projects.
