Planning Commission advances Climate Element with revisions after county-sourced analysis
Summary
City staff presented a revised Climate Element and sought removal of two sections referencing a separate Natural Asset element; staff said Spokane County performed the climate research for Cheney. Commissioners agreed to pass the chapter with expected revisions and amendments to be incorporated.
Terry Mourning introduced the Climate Element and described edits that softened language from earlier drafts. He recommended removing two sections on pages 9 and 12 that referred to Cheney’s Natural Asset element because that material will be absorbed into a separate chapter.
Commissioner Rick Mount said the commission had reviewed the Climate Element extensively and was satisfied with the version presented provided the two cross-references to the Natural Asset element were removed. A public Zoom participant, identified as Jamie, asked whether Cheney’s Climate Element used the same data as the county; staff confirmed Spokane County performed the research and completed the chapter for Cheney. The commission moved to pass the Climate Element with the expected revisions; the motion passed unanimously.
