The Community Climate Action Plan (CCAP) was developed by the Village of Pemberton in collaboration with the Community Energy Association (CEA).

The CCAP carves a path towards a low carbon future, one in which residents thrive in a connected, healthy, and prosperous community and act collaboratively and individually to address the challenges of climate change.

The development of the Village of Pemberton CCAP included extensive research, analysis, modelling and engagement with the community. The CCAP identifies priority areas for actions to reduce community-wide GHG emissions. The CCAP focuses on lowering emissions created from local transportation, buildings and waste by applying six “Big Moves”.

The six "Big Moves" are: 

1. Shift Beyond the Car
2. Electrify Passenger Transportation
3. Step Up New Buildings
4. Decarbonize Existing Buildings
5. Close the Loop on Waste
6. Organizational Leadership

Housing Needs Report

In 2019, the Local Government Act mandated housing needs reports to assess current and anticipated housing needs. The report is based off data and trend analysis to help increase local awareness of the state of housing in communities and inform plans and policies.

On June 20, 2023, the Housing Needs Report for the Village of Pemberton was presented to Council and released to the public. 

In September 2024, the Village of Pemberton completed an Interim Housing needs Report as per new provincial legislation mandating all local governments to do so by January 1, 2025.
