City secures climate grant

AIRWAY HEIGHTS – During the recent legislative session, the City Council announced the city has been awarded a $400,000 grant from the Department of Commerce to support climate planning initiatives over the next two years.

The motion to accept the grant funds was passed unanimously.

“The state wants to break up the funds into two funding cycles,“ City Planner Heather Trautman said.

With the support of this funding, Airway Heights will collaborate with experienced firms Cedar Step and SSG in a “product-based contract” to develop strategies aimed at mitigating the impacts of climate change and fostering a resilient community for the future.
