Guided by the mission and policy objectives of the Board of Supervisors (BOS), the County Administrator's Office (CAO) works to develop, recommend, plan, and implement county-wide strategic plans to address climate impacts. The CAO collaborates with County departments and agencies to analyze relevant climate science information and data, reports, research, regional coordination models, and legislative funding opportunities and priorities to incorporate into policy or program recommendations for the Board’s consideration.<br></span><span style='font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black'><br></span><span style='font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#4E4C4A'>Many County climate resiliency projects and initiatives are currently underway.

Sonoma County values its partnerships with community-based organizations. This position will plan and coordinate outreach and community engagement on climate topics and issues as needed. The Director will also be responsible for collecting, analyzing, and interpreting climate and greenhouse gas emission data; anticipating climate impacts related to operational, legislative, fiscal, and/or community issues; and tracking the County’s climate action and resiliency goals and objectives within the County’s Strategic Plan. In addition, the Director will evaluate and track complex and changing federal/state laws and administrative regulations affecting climate actions and programs related to the Climate Action and Resiliency pillar of the County Strategic Plan.
