Title
A substitute ordinance adopting the Climate and Equity Plan and amending the Citywide Policy Plan as part of Milwaukee’s Overall Comprehensive Plan, and directing its implementation.

Analysis
This ordinance adopts the Climate and Equity Plan as part of the Citywide Policy Plan contained in the City’s Overall Comprehensive Plan, and requires that relevant City departments work towards its implementation, including pursuing necessary state and federal funding. The resolution authorizes the Department of Administration - Environmental Collaboration Office to work with City departments, Milwaukee County, state agencies, public utilities, and relevant community organizations and businesses to advance the goals and strategies outlined in the Plan.
