A moratorium to ban shutoffs of vulnerable residents who can't pay utility bills
"Health" must include mental health. Climate change affects mental health in many ways, and funding must be
commensurate. Resiliency is increased if people are prepa red to deal with stress so they can help themselves
and each other. Reference: ITRC (International Transformational Resilience Coalition, I think)
Weatherization - coordinate with student and community groups to weatherize people's homes
Composting toilets - legal in Ashland? There is nothing about graywater use mentioned. The city puts too many
restrictions on graywater use. It should be encouraged - it keeps water out of the waste system and puts it back
in the soil.
Establish a public tree planti ng strip along the freeway 100 feet at a time with access to it (dirt road) and surface
drip irrigation. So people could have a place to go to plant tree s they need/want to take out.
