Here’s what our Mayors have to say:
“I encourage all Salem residents to provide their feedback on the draft plan from Resilient Together. Resilient Together has been working to develop an action plan to ensure a safe and thriving region, better prepared to face the challenges of climate change. Now it needs your input to be complete and ready for implementation. Here in Salem, we’re committed to acting on the plan’s action items, through the creation of an entirely new Department of Sustainability, Energy, and Resiliency, focused on taking on this important and time-sensitive work.” – Salem Mayor Kim Driscoll
“This plan, the result of months of public engagement and deep analysis of how we can best cut our greenhouse gas emissions and address coastal flooding and other impacts of climate change, is essential to our communities' future. We're excited to share this draft plan; please give us your feedback. Climate change is our shared challenge, and we need everyone's best ideas and efforts.” – Beverly Mayor Mike Cahill
