FAIRFAX CLIMATE ACTION COMMITTEE
(Fairfax, California - Marin County)
The Climate Action Committee (“CAC”) was established to implement the Climate Action Plan, adopted by the Town Council on February 5, 2014.

Initially it was a subcommittee of the General Plan Implementation Committee (“GPIC”); in July 2015, CAC was established as a separate Town Committee. CAC will develop an annual action plan as well as any recommended amendments to the Climate Action Plan. CAC will also provide periodic updates to the Town Council.
CAC membership is comprised of at least seven and no more than thirteen community members who reside within Fairfax (see Committee Members). The CAC may appoint up to two youth members, ages 12 or older, to serve as ex officio members with no voting rights. Membership on the Fairfax Climate Action Committee is approved by the Fairfax Town Council from applications submitted by interested Fairfax residents; members serve a term of four years. The Committee elects a Chairperson and other officers as necessary to run their meetings in accordance with local and state rules of procedure and decorum. CAC, through the Town Clerk, provides notice of its meetings in accordance with local and state rules; it keeps minutes of its meetings which are kept on file with the Town as a public record.
