Kittery Climate Action Committee reviews draft GHG inventory, readies grant actions
Summary
At its April 7 meeting the Kittery Climate Action Committee discussed a draft greenhouse-gas inventory that showed increased electricity-related emissions, noted a June 5 re-enrollment deadline to qualify for Resilience Partnership grants, and confirmed a Working Waterfront grant was ready for submission.
The Kittery Climate Action Committee met April 7 at Kittery Town Hall and on Zoom to review its draft town greenhouse-gas (GHG) inventory, discuss upcoming grant deadlines and hear routine status updates.
Committee members flagged an increase in emissions delivered to the electrical grid in the draft GHG inventory and asked members to submit comments on the draft to Mar and Karina by the end of April. The committee noted that the town-wide inventory remains an ongoing project.
Members were reminded that re-enrollment in the Resilience Partnership is required to be eligible for the current round of grants; the committee recorded a June 5 deadline for eligibility. Separately, the committee reported that a Working Waterfront grant application is ready for submission; the transcript does not specify the grant amount, lead applicant, or submission date.
The committee also recorded that the Coastal Hazard Overlay item is on temporary hold and noted a community event: a KCAN meeting at Rice Library on May 7. The agenda included a public-comment period, but the transcript does not capture any comments.
The meeting adjourned at 6:16 p.m. after a motion to adjourn by Climate Action Committee member C. Bragg, seconded by D. Gibson; the motion passed unanimously.
The committee's next meeting is scheduled for May 5, 2026, from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m.; members were asked to send GHG-inventory comments by the end of the month and to complete Resilience Partnership re-enrollment by June 5 to remain eligible for grant funding.
