Carbon Neutral Council Plan 2022- 2024

Monitoring and key performance indicators

This delivery framework will enable the council to monitor and report on its actions towards a carbon neutral council. We will report on progress twice a year to Cabinet and Council (reports can be found on our Climate emergency page), ensuring that key progress is also communicated directly to the public through media releases, social media posts and updates on our climate webpages. We will review and modify this plan as necessary to make sure that we are on track to deliver the objectives.

The initial key performance indicators which will enable us to monitor progress against this plan are set out below. This list will be kept under review and developed over time.
