Village of Red Hook Climate Smart Communities Monthly Report January 2023
Trustee Steve Appenzeller and I met to discuss potential members of the Climate Smart Community taskforce which will meet semi-regularly to move forward with CSC. I heard back from Cornell Cooperative Extension and they received partial funding to work with us on the CSC Assessment and will look into future funding opportunities regarding the Resilience Planning Tool. They are finalizing the contract and therefore final details about the role of CCE and our partnership are still yet to be finalized.
