Hi Janice,
Thank you so much for your kind words and continued support! The adoption of the Climate Action Plan is a significant milestone, and we’re excited to move forward with the next steps. Our focus will now shift to implementation, enhancing community engagement, collaborating with peer cities, and advancing economic development through initiatives like green businesses and jobs. Together, these efforts will help ensure our city is future-ready and bring us closer to achieving net zero.
I’d also like to schedule a catch-up meeting as we plan community engagement events for the year. It would be great to explore how these efforts can align for our continued collaboration.
Many thanks again for your support, and I look forward to connecting soon!
Best,
Dan

Dear Dr. Zhu,
The League of Women Voters of Alachua County thanks you, Jennie Ford, and your other colleagues and staff for the hard, creative, inclusive work that created a successful Climate Resiliency Plan as adopted by the City Commission on January 16th, 2025. The League also appreciates that you and your colleagues created this plan as one of your first tasks as the city’s Climate Director and during a period of budgetary challenge and change. A more resilient future for this city we all cherish is the finest possible gift to its citizenry.
Be reassured that the LWVAC will continue to support your efforts as this plan becomes reality and will gladly contribute time and effort to its realization and refinement in the years ahead.
Bravo, job well done. We look forward to further collaboration.
Respectfully,
Janice Garry, President LWVAC
