Steve Adler
Mayor
Climate change is top concern. Need to act swiftly and decisively, and we have. Signed Paris Accords and committed city to action. Purchased largest and most cost-effective solar contracts getting city to 50% renewable by 2020. Actual steps by 2022 to shut down coal plant and working to electrify city fleets. Need code changes for more cost-efficient distributed water supply and energy generation. Continue pushing to maximum renewable goal and get to 100% by 2030 with tech advances. Do this while lowering electric rates, keeping utility affordable and owned by the residents of Austin.
