Final Reports presented to Committee of the Whole March 9

The Resilient St. John’s Community Climate Plan (Resilient St. John’s Plan) was presented to Council at Committee of the Whole on Wednesday, March 9. The development of this plan followed an evidence-based, stakeholder-driven, holistic process. The planned development was a multi-stage process including: context review, early public consultation, stakeholder engagement workshops, technical modelling for business-as-usual and low-carbon scenarios, scenario-based risk management practices consistent with the ISO 31000:2018 Risk Management for Climate Adaptation & Resilience standard, and a second stakeholder and public engagement effort to inform the path forward. The plan will go forward at a regular meeting of Council in the coming weeks for final approval.
