1 Integrating Sustainability into the Corporate Culture of KCMO & the Greater KC Metro Area Kansas City/County Management Conference April 18, 2014 Dennis Murphey Chief Environmental Officer, KCMO
2 City Leadership on Sustainability Mayor James, the City Council, and City Manager Troy Schulte have embraced sustainability as a core principle in municipal operations: a triple-bottom line approach to simultaneously achieve social equity, economic vitality, & environmental quality
3 Vision Statement The mayor, council and staff, together with community partners, strive to achieve a common vision to make Kansas City best. We employ innovative strategies to: effectively and efficiently provide customer-focused services; improve public safety; and develop sustainable, healthy communities where all prosper. We lead by inspiring, collaborating, measuring progress and celebrating success.
4 A New Perspective Sustainability is a different way to connect the dots to achieve multiple benefits from our actions: water conservation = energy conservation = cost savings GHG reductions = lower ozone levels public transit improvements = economic development urban agriculture = healthy, local food = job creation increased tree canopy = mitigation of urban heat island effect = improved property values
5 Examples of Actions by Mayor & City Council Unanimous adoption of the KCMO Climate Protection Plan in 2008 Adoption of Green Solutions Resolution in 2007 to integrate green infrastructure into the City s long-term plan to mitigate sewer overflows Including a question on fact sheets that accompany proposed ordinances & resolutions: How does this contribute to a sustainable Kansas City? Opt-in to Show Me Green Sales Tax Holiday
6 Examples of Actions by Mayor & City Council Ordinance/code changes to promote: LEED Gold ratings for City construction projects Energy Star as standard for affordable housing projects by the City Urban agriculture/local food production Energy efficiency enhancements in KCMO building codes Public transit improvements
7 Examples of Actions by City Staff $25 million in grants from U.S. Dept of Energy for energy efficiency & conservation $211 million in new investment on brownfield sites, leveraging $2.5 billion in redevelopment $27 million grant from U.S. DOT for express bus service & transportation infrastructure in economically distressed area of the City Conversion of City s fleet to alternative fuels Extensive energy efficiency improvements to City buildings (76-year old City Hall certified as an Energy Star building in 2012)
8 Examples of Actions by City Staff Low-income home weatherization Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan Bike KC! & Trails KC! plans Municipal Court & City Clerk going paperless Creation of KC Green as the City s brand Completion of 100-acre pilot project utilizing green infrastructure to mitigate storm water runoff/sewer overflows Creation of Green Solutions Steering Committee & staff green teams
9 City as a Bridge to Regional Sustainability (Collaboration) Electric & Natural Gas Utilities, KCPL & MGE Bridging The Gap Metropolitan Energy Center/Clean Cities Coalition Greater KC Chamber of Commerce Blue Cross/Blue Shield bike share program Working w/local governments to promote more consistent & improved energy codes across the bi-state metro area
10 City as a Bridge to Regional Sustainability Mid-America Regional Council (MARC) Solid Waste Management District Air Quality Forum Regional Energy Efficiency & Conservation Strategy Solar Rooftop Challenge grant from DOE Creating Sustainable Places grant from HUD Sustainable Success Stories recognition program Many other collaborators: Cultivate KC, Greater KC Food Policy Coalition, Green Works in Kansas City, Full Employment Council
11 Current Areas of Focus by KCMO KC Green Neighborhood recognition program Installation of 25 kw solar panel installations on rooftops of City buildings (up to 80 installations) Creation of a local food hub Addressing the Emerald Ash Borer & enhancing the urban tree canopy Incorporation of smart growth principles into new development activities Redevelopment of former Municipal Farm site for urban agriculture & renewable energy generation
12 Current Areas of Focus by KCMO Revitalization of vacant lots, utilizing new Land Bank authority enacted by MO General Assembly Continued efforts to improve energy efficiency of City buildings Tracking & reporting of sustainability indicators for municipal operations Update of GHG emission inventory for calendar year 2013 Submittal of a sustainable procurement ordinance to City Council for their consideration
13 Challenges to Making Sustainability the Norm Lack of understanding by state policymakers re interrelationships of economy, equity, & environment Failure to make sure that multiple benefits are achieved by all decisions & actions Anti-Agenda 21 state legislation (an orchestrated nationwide campaign) & political polarization that demonizes sustainability End of federal stimulus funding, including EECBG formula grants to cities from U.S. DOE Pushback from economic interests who benefit from the status quo
