Events
Engaging the public throughout the development and implementation of AB 617 will be paramount. The District plans to host a series of workshops, public meetings, and community forums to educate the public, yet more importantly, to solicit suggestions and feedback on a wide variety of issues, including allocation of funds, identifying communities for potential enhanced monitoring and action plan development.

Subject: [SAVE THE DATE] Community Clean Air Day on Saturday, June 22 in Fresno
Good afternoon CSCs,
We are pleased to invite you to save the date for the District’s inaugural Community Clean Air Day, to be held in Downtown Fresno on Saturday, June 22, 2024.
This is an opportunity for all communities across the entire Valley, especially those who have directly been working on the State’s Community Air Protection Program, to collaborate with one another and discuss ways to identify and bring opportunities and resources to our communities most in need. We will continue to update the CSCs about this event at our CSC meetings and through update emails. More information about stipends, transportation, and other event details will be available on this webpage soon: www.valleyair.org/community-clean-air-day.
Know anyone who doesn’t get these CSC emails who wants to learn more? Have folks connect with us to stay in the loop about the event.
Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you all soon!
