SF’s Proposed Climate Action Strategies

1 100% Renewable energy plan

2Implementation of the existing commercial building benchmarking ordinance

3 Achieve zero waste sent to landfills by 20204 Develop and expand local electric vehicle market5 Implement variable rate road pricing in downtown

6Continue Energy Watch energy effi ciency program for businesses and residences

7 Expand SFPark meter demand pricing program8 Construct a protected cycletrack network9 Energy effi ciency designs for new developments

10 Convert taxi fleet to electric vehicles11 Transit-oriented development in priority development areas

12Improved public transit awareness through information integration

13 Transit passes for new developments14 Convert street parking to a demand pricing program15 Optimize transit system fleet, storage, maintenance16 Continue parking cash out program17 Increased distribution of employer transit passes18 Renew RECO requirement for home sales19 Require hotel visitor transit passes20 New development car sharing and bicycle parking21 Complete build out of SF's bicycle plan22 Expand participation of SF's ridesharing 511 program23 Expand region transit core capacity

24Develop pedestrian amenities, complete green streets and slow zones

25 Convert service delivery vehicles to electric vehicles26 Distribute transit passes to students and staff27 Coordinate transit shuttles28 Expand SFGO signal synchronization29 Additional capacity for existing express transit corridors30 Expand bicycle sharing, parking, and electric bicycle capacity31 Neighborhood travel choice programs
