FILE NUMBER
Authorize the City Manager to approve the following greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets for
inclusion in the City's Climate Action Plan: 15% reduction of 2008 levels by 2020, and 30% reduction
of 2008 levels by 2035.
DISCUSSION
Santa Ana has been proactively developing a Climate Action Plan (CAP) to demonstrate leadership in
sustainability and to respond to potential legislative action. By completing the CAP, the City will be
prepared for any new legislation that may be enacted.
Approval of this recommended action will allow the City to accomplish Goal 5 of the Santa Ana
Strategic Plan, which includes completion of the City's CAP with measures to address water
conservation, energy efficient buildings (City and community), and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
The recommended CAP emissions reduction targets meet the State of California objective of
reducing statewide GHG emissions to 1990 levels by 2020, and are on track to achieve the statewide
goal of 80% below 1990 levels by 2050.
As a first step in preparing the CAP, a GHG emissions inventory was completed to determine the
baseline for future achievement. This 2008 baseline inventory showed that Santa Ana is already
demonstrating leadership in reducing energy use and GHG emissions. At 5.5 metric tons of CO2
(MTCO2e) per capita, Santa Ana baseline emissions are lower than the statewide average of 13
MTCO2e, and significantly lower than the nationwide average of 23 MTCO2e.
The reduction targets of 15% of 2008 levels by 2020, and 30% of 2008 levels by 2035 were
developed with input from community and City stakeholders (Exhibit 2), as well as consultants with
expertise in CAP preparation and scientific calculation of emissions reductions. The result is a
proposed set of actions (measures) to achieve the recommended reduction targets. Some of the
measures take into consideration existing State regulations, utility incentive programs, and the City's
Draft Circulation Element.

Establish Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Targets
for Inclusion in the Santa Ana Climate Action Plan
May 6, 2014
Page 2
After receiving approval of the GHG reduction targets, an additional round of community and
stakeholder workshops will be held for input on the draft CAP, followed by an Environmental Impact
Report. The final draft CAP will be presented to the City Council for adoption.
The majority of the funding for the CAP is being provided by Southern California Edison through the
California Public Utilities Commission. This funding expires in December 2014. Establishing the
recommended targets will enable staff to meet the requirements of this funding deadline.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with approving emissions reduction targets for developing the
CAP.
