SUMMARY:How Mountain Communities Fund Climate Action
DESCRIPTION:Mountain communities have done much of the hard work of figuring out what climate solutions work. The harder question is how to pay for them\, especially with lean staff\, seasonal revenue\, high infrastructure costs\, and grant competitions that favor bigger applicants. \nThis 60-minute session moves past the funding wish-list and into a practical capital playbook. We’ll cover what’s still available in federal and IRA dollars (and the deadlines that make timing urgent)\, how to stack public and private capital\, and how a mix of local revenue tools (value capture\, resilience fees\, special assessment districts\, bonds\, and tourism-linked mechanisms) can fund deployment year over year. We’ll also look at how neighboring communities can pool capacity to compete for grants they’d lose alone. You’ll leave with a menu of financing mechanisms matched to mountain-town realities and a sense of which ones to pursue first. \nCore Question: If communities know what solutions work\, how do they pay for them? \nPresenter:\nGeorge Chmael II\, President & CEO Council Fire

SUMMARY:Expanding Local Government Capacity: University\, Nonprofit\, and State Partnerships for Climate Resilience and Sustainability
DESCRIPTION:3rd Annual National Sustainability Society Conference \n“Expanding Local Government Capacity: University\, Nonprofit\, and State Partnerships for Climate Resilience and Sustainability”\nLocal governments are on the frontlines of climate action and are expected to advance ambitious sustainability goals across climate mitigation\, resilience\, waste reduction\, and energy systems. However\, insufficient staffing and funding can prevent them from making progress. Cross-sector partnerships between local governments\, universities\, nonprofits\, and state agencies offer a practical\, scalable way to get this work done. At the same time\, they offer students hands-on\, career-defining experiences in municipal government. As students emerge as next generation sustainability leaders\, project learning experiences with local governments play a critical role in preparing them with the practical skills and professional relationships needed to advance sustainability in their communities. \nThis session will focus on how universities\, nonprofits\, and state agencies build and implement partnerships that expand local government capacity to advance sustainability and climate action. Panelists will share real-world examples from featured programs in Colorado and Arizona\, including ICLEI USA’s Colorado Resilience Engine (CORE) Internship Program\, Mountain Towns 2030 programming and Capstone project with CU Boulder\, CU Boulder’s Master of the Environment (MENV) Capstone Program\, the Rural Technical Assistance Program (a collaboration between CU Boulder’s MENV program\, the Colorado Outdoor Recreation Industry Office (OREC) and Colorado State University Extension)\, and Arizona State University’s Project Cities program.
