Please select the jurisdiction(s) <br />where your project is focused <br />and briefly state how your <br />project aligns with the relevant <br />Climate Action Plans (2-4 <br />sentences). <br /> <br />Please name the action items <br />from each relevant plan that best <br />align with your proposed project: <br />☒ Carrboro: https://townofcarrboro.org/928/Community-Climate- <br />Action-Plan <br />☐ Chapel Hill: <br />https://www.sustainchapelhill.org/featured/2020/2/18/climate- <br />action-and-response-plan <br />☐ Orange County: In progress, please instead show alignment with <br />the Orange County BOCC Goals and Priorities. <br /> <br />This proposed project aligns with the above plan(s) in the following <br />ways: <br /> <br />Carrboro’s plan recommends a goal of a 50% reduction in per <br />capita greenhouse gas emissions by 2025, cutting the carbon <br />footprint in half over the next decade for the entire community, <br />Town operations, the buildings and transportation “sectors’, and <br />ultimately each resident and business. <br /> <br />The base plan for the new ArtsCenter incorporates many <br />sustainable initiatives which include limited site development, <br />solar orientation of the building, a strategic location within <br />walking distance to downtown Carrboro, bike storage <br />exceeding code requirements, a high efficiency cooling <br />system, LED lighting fixtures and low-flow plumbing. This <br />project adds to these initiatives and further decreases the <br />carbon footprint of the new building. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />In some projects, collaborators and partners provide essential capacity and connections. If collaborators <br />or partners are an essential part of your project whether or not they are receiving grant funds, please <br />use this section to provide more details.
