LOCAL WATER CONSERVATION & PRODUCTION
• Comprehensive water conservation delivery program • Increased ground water recharge activities (reclamation and
storm water) • Regional distribution of Green Gardens provides wetter, cooler
environments • Use of grey water capture for irrigation where feasible • Widespread solar-powered atmospheric water capture recycles
garden irrigation water for use in homes and gardens

FINANCING STRATEGIES
![Page 29: ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL...ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL • Navy submarine nuclear power plant operator • B.Sc Nuclear Engineering, minor in Peace and Conflict Resolution Studies (PACS)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051917/60095bba01ee571c755cbfc5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
MUNICIPAL BANKING
• Provides Local Control of Financing Mechanisms • Can be Paired with Current Efforts to Provide Transaction
Services for Cannabis Sales • Allows for Local Divestment (Mortgages, Financial Services,
Business Loans etc.) • Distributed Banking Services Removes “Banking Deserts” • Shuts Down Predatory Lending Activity
![Page 30: ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL...ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL • Navy submarine nuclear power plant operator • B.Sc Nuclear Engineering, minor in Peace and Conflict Resolution Studies (PACS)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051917/60095bba01ee571c755cbfc5/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
STATE FINANCING
• The California Alternative Energy and Advanced Transportation Financing Authority (CAEATFA) could provide financing for large capital projects
• Eventual state-wide on-bill financing for energy efficiency and emissions reduction retrofits for homes and small commercial sector
![Page 31: ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL...ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL • Navy submarine nuclear power plant operator • B.Sc Nuclear Engineering, minor in Peace and Conflict Resolution Studies (PACS)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051917/60095bba01ee571c755cbfc5/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
BEST PRACTICES AND OTHER OPPORTUNITIES IN THE PLAN
• Electrification of Industrial Sector • Zero Emissions Municipal Equipment
• Inductive Charging for Taxi and Shuttle Services
• Park & Charge Concierge Operated Parking Lots to Facilitate V2G Program
• “Made Green in Chico” National Label for Locally Manufactured Mobilization Products
• Development of community-based commercial kitchen facilities, CSA delivery systems and vibrant distributed farmers markets
![Page 32: ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL...ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL • Navy submarine nuclear power plant operator • B.Sc Nuclear Engineering, minor in Peace and Conflict Resolution Studies (PACS)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051917/60095bba01ee571c755cbfc5/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
REGIONAL DISTRIBUTION OF PLAN BENEFITS • Democratization of energy and transportation will produce a
disproportionate effect on those communities that current suffer under disparity
• Economic gains from distributed agriculture program and availability of fresh produce will benefit those areas currently experiencing urban food deserts
• New manufacturing could be sited at industrial and industrial mixed-use zoned areas when combined with a vibrant AEV shuttle system will allow ease of access to these new jobs
• In-home and outdoor air quality and heat island reduction benefits will disproportionately benefit frontline communities who currently experience the worst of these impacts
• Communities with greater needs for building stock retrofits will experience disproportionate increases in health, safety and comfort
• Natural gas demand impacts will make regional oil and gas extraction unprofitable (carbon bubble)
![Page 33: ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL...ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL • Navy submarine nuclear power plant operator • B.Sc Nuclear Engineering, minor in Peace and Conflict Resolution Studies (PACS)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051917/60095bba01ee571c755cbfc5/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
ECONOMIC JUSTICE BENEFITS
• Increased distributed employment opportunities within every community of Butte County
• Development of community-based agriculture • Capture of economic outflows from communities in the form of fossil
fuel and fossil fuel related expenses • Increased industrial (manufacturing) activity (trained workforce,
transportation infrastructure and nationally recognized label attracts manufacturing in addition to mobilization facilities)
• Access to low-cost and abundant transportation

IMPACTS ON THE EXTRACTION ECONOMY
![Page 36: ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL...ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL • Navy submarine nuclear power plant operator • B.Sc Nuclear Engineering, minor in Peace and Conflict Resolution Studies (PACS)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051917/60095bba01ee571c755cbfc5/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
NEXT PHASES OF IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
• Community adaptation and resiliency (i.e. cooling centers, low-cost resilient housing, extreme flooding events, sea level rise, wildfire prevention, extreme wind-events etc.)
• Drawdown of carbon dioxide – necessary to prevent catastrophic climate change impacts
• Expansion of city-scale activities to provide expertise and resource (manufacturing, labor) to regional and out-of-state communities who will follow LA’s leadership
![Page 37: ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL...ABOUT ME: JOHN MITCHELL • Navy submarine nuclear power plant operator • B.Sc Nuclear Engineering, minor in Peace and Conflict Resolution Studies (PACS)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051917/60095bba01ee571c755cbfc5/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
RECOMMENDED POLICIES OVER NEXT YEAR • Engage with local community stakeholders to develop a fully-implementable
mobilization plan • Develop guidelines for landlords and multi-family housing owners
encouraging fixed-rate utility charges for tenants to facilitate sale of electricity generated from rooftop solar
• Development of municipal green banking system • Development of time-of-use and time-of-supply electricity feed-in tariffs for
residential and small commercial solar • Engage procurement and planning process for delivery of standardized
rooftop solar and energy efficiency programs • Work with local universities and EV manufacturers to develop standardized
equipment for a city-operated V2G pilot program • Identify feasibility timelines for development of autonomous EV dedicated
lanes and street-level conversion of parking lanes to traffic lanes at critical traffic bottlenecks
