The Community Advisory Group (CAG) is made up of 20 county residents who were appointed by the county manager
VANCOUVER – The Clark County Climate Project Community Advisory Group will meet at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 24.
The Community Advisory Group (CAG) is made up of 20 county residents who were appointed by the county manager. The group is helping the county develop policy recommendations to implement new state climate change planning legislation for Planning Commission and County Council consideration to adopt for the county. The legislation emphasizes that planning and policy decisions related to climate change do not impact us all in the same way. The CAG is one of three advisory groups supporting the county’s Climate Project.
Community Advisory Group meetings are held at 5:30 p.m. the fourth Wednesday of the month.
Meetings are in a hybrid format with both in-person and virtual participation options. Attend in Room 680 of the Public Service Center, 1300 Franklin St., or join virtually through information provided at: https://clark.wa.gov/community-planning/community-advisory-group.
The meeting is open to the public and includes a brief public comment period. A recording of the meeting will also be available for viewing afterwards.

The county’s Climate Project is being funded by a state grant. The Washington Department of Commerce climate planning grant is supported with funding from Washington’s Climate Commitment Act (CCA). The CCA supports Washington’s climate action efforts by putting cap-and-invest dollars to work reducing climate pollution, creating jobs, and improving public health. Information about the CCA is available at www.climate.wa.gov.
