Staff will describe the budget process for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 and requests the CAC’s direction on priorities for FY 26/27...body ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The proposed action is not a project as defined by 14 California Code of Regulations 15378 (State CEQA Guidelines) and therefore CEQA is not applicable. BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION The CAC has historically served as a forum for sharing information and coordinating region-wide efforts to address climate change and adapt to its effects. For example, the CAC has discussed the need for increasing the amount of electric vehicle charging infrastructure and has hosted presenters from outside agencies including the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission, the Bay Area Regional Energy Network (BayREN), and others. These presentations have helped inform CAC members and the public about regional, state, and federal efforts, programs, and grants for climate action, transportation, building electrification, solid waste management, and other climate action, community resilience, and sustainability topic areas. The CAC historically discussed short-term immediate discrete actions that could be taken by each jurisdiction to mitigate the root causes of climate change. The development of the Regional Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (RCAAP) will offer an official mechanism for coordinated efforts related to the CAC’s purpose of reducing GHG emissions and adapting communities to climate change. The development and completion of the RCAAP was the CAC’s primary goal for FY 25/26 and a final plan is expected in the current fiscal year. Based on the Napa region-specific 2019 Regional Greenhouse Gas Inventory, the RCAAP framework is designed for countywide application, and many measures will be applied and implemented consistently across all Napa County jurisdictions, addressing broad issues and emissions sources that are shared across multiple jurisdictions. However, some GHG reduction measures do not apply uniformly across all jurisdictions and only apply to specific local contexts and needs. By recognizing these distinctions, the RCAAP ensures that each jurisdiction can effectively contribute to the overall GHG reduction goals while addressing their unique challenges and opportunities.
