Direct Support and Services

The Local Government Support Program offers a range of direct support and services to protect public health, reduce historical and current environmental inequities, and lessen climate impacts. We provide services to assist local governments in the planning and implementation of air quality protection overlay zones, environmental justice elements, health-protective conditions of approval for new development, review of climate action plans, and more. For example, the Air District partnered with the City of Oakland to develop the following resources:

  • Oakland's Truck-Attracting Business Ordinance: We supported the development of an ordinance aimed at addressing the impact of truck-attracting businesses on air quality.
  • Oakland’s Environmental Justice Element: We collaborated with the City of Oakland on its Environmental Justice Element by providing Technical Assistance on air quality data and air protection policies.
  • Interagency Workgroup Resolution: We helped Oakland establish an interagency workgroup dedicated to addressing air quality policies collaboratively.

We are available to assist local governments as they seek to integrate clean air, climate protection and resilience, and environmental justice into their planning and policy efforts. Visit the Resource Library to access model and example ordinances and other resources we’ve created through the direct assistance services provided to local governments.
