In Plain English

Richmond received a $35 million state grant in 2022 to fund 10 climate projects in the Iron Triangle, Santa Fe, and Coronado neighborhoods. The state requires cities to hire independent evaluators to measure whether these programs actually work. UC Berkeley will track results from projects like bike lanes, solar panel installations, and e-bike lending over 6 years.
