Committee details

This Task Group has been formed to:

· Review what leading sustainable cities, and those similar to York,

are doing in seeking to balance economic, social and

environmental needs.

· Explore potential of the One Planet York framework to:

-            Enable benchmarking with other cities through a new One Planet York ‘city scorecard’ (basket of measures).

-            Increase understanding and wider awareness about what makes cities sustainable and resilient.

· Review statutory and local decision making tools, engagement

and collaboration methods to help cities best balance economic,

social and environmental needs.

· Explore how the city’s Urban Living Pilot project – ‘York City

Environment Observatory’ – could bring new knowledge and

insight regarding economic, social and environmental

interdependencies.
