Climate

The City of Ridgefield has been working through Envision Ridgefield 2045, a process to update Ridgefield’s Comprehensive Plan. As part of this process, we are planning for current and future climate impacts to our community.

We invite you to share your experiences with natural hazards in Ridgefield and your ideas for improving our resiliency to future events.

House Bill 1181 requires the adoption of a climate change and resiliency element for cities and towns planning under the Growth Management Act. This survey will be used to inform climate planning and help develop a climate element as part of the 20-year Comprehensive Plan update, Envision Ridgefield 2045.

Survey answers were anonymous and are being used to help us identify ways we can prepare for natural hazards and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The survey closed Monday, February 10.

City Council held a Study Session meeting on the topic on Thursday, March 6. Listen to the meeting.
