Proposition 39 • Adopted by the voters in November 2012 to close corporate tax loopholes and will provide roughly $550 million annually to K-12 and CCC’s for Energy Projects for five years • CCC’s will allocate $40 million for FY 2013-2014 distributed on an FTES basis to all CCC Districts for energy efficiency and renewable generation projects • The Chancellor’s Office will use $6 million of Proposition 39 annual funds to support energy efficiency and clean energy related workforce training in the California Community Colleges.
Sustainability Template What is it? • A collaboration between the CCC Chancellor’s Office, Citrus College and Newcomb Anderson McCormick, funded by a California Energy Commission grant • Provides a “roadmap” and “toolkit” to help guide the California Community Colleges to a more Sustainable future • Create a “Sustainability Template” that is designed with enough flexibility to be utilized at Community Colleges throughout the state • Address energy, transportation, solid waste/recycling, water issues, green purchasing, green curriculum, and provide recommendations for Climate Action Planning.
Sustainability Template: Three Parts • Describes the start to finish implementation process • Includes a menu of sustainability projects • Identifies resources available Sustainability Action Plan Document Template Sustainability Planning Guidebook Implementation Planning Checklist • Used to select and track Sustainability Projects • Matches the projects described in the Sustainability Guidebook • Used to create the customized Campus Sustainability Plan • Contains template language and fill-in-the-blanks
Sustainability Plan Guidebook Sustainability Projects Menu • Management and Organizational Structure • Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy, and Efficient Design and Operation of Campus Facilities • Transportation and Commuting Alternatives • Water, Wastewater, and Sustainable Landscaping • Waste Reduction, Re-use, Recycling, and Composting • Green Purchasing • Opportunities for Green Curriculum Development • A recommended framework, tools, and approach for Climate Action Plans • Use as a planning and implementation resource!
