SENT VIA EMAIL January 3, 2025 Mr. Randy Scollins Finance Director Town of Canton 801 Washington St. Canton, MA 02021 cc: Mr. Charles Doody, Town Administrator Mr. Emilio Mauro, Chair, Finance Committee Ms. Jen Wexler, Vice Chair, SCAP Committee j Ms. Katy Clark, Member, Sustainability Committee Dear Mr. Scollins, Attached please find three documents in support of the proposed budget for the Sustainability Committee (Cost Center 177). This budget reflects the Sustainability and Climate Action Planning (SCAP) Committee’s best estimate of total expenses for FY 2026 and was developed in consultation with the Sustainability Committee and Energy Advisory Committee. Per our discussion, the attached draft budget totals $196,510. The portion of this budget requiring direct Town funding is $29,510. As shown on the detailed schedule, most of this budget (i.e., $178,101) reflects anticipated expenses associated the hiring of an Energy Manager and implementation of the “MVP 2.0 grant” project. Most of these expenses (i.e., $167,000) would be covered by grant funding if the Town were awarded these grants. If the Town is unable to secure the applicable grant, then the applicable portion of the $178,101 would not be incurred. Please let me know if you have any questions, and | look forward to working with you and the Finance Committee to facilitate the budget review and approval process. Sincerely, hens C Pella Thomas R. Birmingham Chair, SCAP Committee & Energy Advisory Committee 88 Sherman Ave. Canton, MA 02021 irmi ail. Attachments RECEIVED vAN 06 2025 Town of Canton Finance Director

The Town's Sustainability and Climate Action Plan Committee recently conducted a survey to gather feedback on environmental priorities from over 350 residents and
Source page 40
businesses. The results demonstrate significant community support for the upcoming CAP. About half of Canton survey respondents were aware of the CAP Committee, and a strong majority understood its focus on reducing pollution, promoting and facilitating homeowner and business access to clean energy systems, and preparing for climate adaptation and climate-related emergencies. Top environmental concerns highlighted include outdoor air quality, deforestation and habitat loss, and pollution of freshwater sources. The survey also identified strong support for actions such as reducing the volume of plastics in the environment, improving recycling rates and reducing waste being landfilled, promoting smart growth and sustainable development, and facilitating homeowner and business access to clean energy retrofit grants, rebates, tax credits, and other incentive programs. Community members also identified a high awareness of the public health impacts of climate change, including air pollution, increasing heat, extreme weather events, flooding, drought, and fires. Many emphasized the need for improved sidewalks and bike lanes. Survey results will be added to information gathered from interviews with Town department personnel, CAP Committee focus groups, other Town committees and plans, Canton’s business community, and statewide best practices. All of this information will be used to help guide the development of Canton’s CAP to ensure it aligns with the community's environmental priorities while balancing long-term sustainability goals. The conclusion of the survey brings Phase 2 of the CAP development process to a close. Phase 3 involves three key steps, including: 1) drafting the CAP and related recommendations; 2) preparing the Select Board to vote on the CAP and related actions, and 3) preparing for Canton’s 2025 Annual Town Meeting, including applicable articles for inclusion in the warrant. In addition, the CAP Committee has voted to endorse the new Galvin Middle School Project and related funding for three key reasons.
