About the Climate Action Plan 

The City of Plymouth is in the process of developing a Climate Action and Resiliency Plan, which will outline goals, strategies and actions the city will examine and implement at a city level regarding climate action and community resilience. 

The plan is being developed around three pillars- Advancing Equity, Climate Change Mitigation, and Increasing Community Resiliency. 

The plan will also have a Greenhouse Gas Inventory, Community Climate Vulnerability Assessments, and an action and implementation plan. 

Proposed sections of the plan include: 

• Transportation
• Land Use
• Buildings and Energy
• Waste Management
• Water, Storm Water, Wastewater
• Local Food
• Green Space and Carbon Sequestration

The Climate Action and Resiliency Plan efforts kicked off in the summer of 2025 along with a grant agreement with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency funding nearly half of the costs. The city is currently working with a consultant paleBLUEdot to complete the baseline assessments (Greenhouse Gas Inventory and Climate Vulnerability Assessments).

Community Participation

A core component of the plan development is community participation. A kick-off event, three survey periods and community engagement sessions are anticipated throughout 2025 and 2026.
