Fairfield Forward 2050: City of Fairfield Comprehensive General Plan Update and Climate Action Plan

This Draft EIR is for a comprehensive update to all elements of the City of Fairfield's General Plan, with the exception of the Housing Element, which was adopted in 2023, and includes a new Environmental Justice Element. It also includes the Climate Action Plan (CAP), which contains a community-wide inventory of greenhouse gas emissions and a strategy for reducing them to achieve State-mandated targets. The Proposed Project would establish a planning and policy framework that would extend to horizon year 2050. The CAP establishes greenhouse gas emissions reductions targets that demonstrate compliance with statewide targets for 2030 and demonstrate substantial progress toward the State 2045 target.
