In 2020, Lakewood began developing proactive climate change policies, incentives, and potential regulations ahead of state and regional mandates. Over 12 months, City staff prepared a comprehensive document using data on local greenhouse gas sources and anticipated climate change effects, planning for thousands of new residents by 2050. In 2021, AHBL assisted in preparing the first Climate Change Chapter of Lakewood’s Comprehensive Plan, detailing the science of climate change, its impacts, GHG emissions, emission reduction standards, and energy and climate goals. This effort earned the City the 2022 Governor’s Smart Communities Award for Smart Climate Strategies from the Washington State Department of Commerce.
