“Planning Communities was incredibly instrumental in working with the City of Richmond's Sustainability Office in building upon foundational work that the City has been doing through RVAGreen2050, taking it to the next level, with their leading role in the City's Climate Risk and Vulnerability Assessment. This assessment was a critical transition to get the City to climate action implementation and system wide integration. The Planning Communities Team was creative and collaborative and their expertise and passion for climate, geospatial and equity analysis is evident in the high quality of their work.”
