These measures were selected from a set of 39 measures <br /> developed for jurisdictions in the San Mateo County region by the City and County Association <br /> of Governments (C/CAG) and promoted through the countywide Regionally Integrated Climate <br /> Action Planning Suite (RICAPS) initiative. A summary table of the measures and an <br /> implementation timeline to the target year of 2020 are provided on pages 20-22 in Chapter 2. <br /> The City of Redwood City is poised to reap the benefits of a clean energy economy, with <br /> policies that can increase the demand for local green jobs. While an important first step, this <br /> Plan will remain a living document, to be updated as technology and policies progress, to <br /> support the City's efforts to manage GHG emissions for a sustainable future for all. <br /> 3 <br />
