The County engaged multiple stakeholders in the <br /> planning process through the Climate Action Plan Working Group, County department working <br /> sessions, technical reviews, and a public review period. <br /> Key Planning Activities 2021 2022 2023 <br /> Greenhouse Gas Inventory <br /> Risk&Vulnerability Assessment <br /> Working Group Development&Facilitation ,,, , ■ <br /> Community Sentiment Survey <br /> ' L_ <br /> Cascade Framework I , <br /> Action&Implementation Strategy Development I I I , <br /> Interdepartmental Engagement <br /> Techni( Review <br /> Draft ICAP Public Review <br /> Finalize&Adopt ICAP <br /> Figure 1.Planning process for developing the Integrated Climate Action Plan <br /> Climate Action Plan Working Group <br /> In the summer of 2021, Hawaii County hosted three Climate Action workshops in Hilo and Kona. The <br /> County produced a Hawaii Island Climate Action simulation for the workshops. During the workshops, <br /> the County presented the proposed Climate Action Plan scope, goals, and development process and <br /> facilitated the simulation with the group. The County formed a Climate Action Plan Working Group with <br /> the workshop participants. The Working Group met monthly from July 2021 — December 2021. The <br /> group then met every 3 months from January— June 2022. The Working Group was re-convened to <br /> review the draft plan in 2023. <br /> The Working Group advised the County on the focus of the Plan. They also helped develop and <br /> distribute a Climate Change Community Sentiment Survey with the County. The high-level results and <br /> recommendations from the survey informed the identification of co-benefits for actions and the <br /> stakeholder engagement outlined in the Implementation section. For more information on the survey <br /> results, see Appendix C. Long-term climate action planning and implementation should include <br /> continued partnerships like those described in the Implementation section. <br /> Planning Process 1 <br />
