The City of Falls Church Council’s Vision is for the City to be a welcoming and inclusive community where involved citizens are key to the City’s long-term success as a leader in education, environmental sustainability, multi-modal transportation, and vibrant economic development. The City’s strong commitment to leadership in environmental sustainability is reflected in public and private development and in all of its government operations, including a strong emphasis on reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
The City has committed to greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction goals of 50% by 2030 and net zero emissions by 2050. To help identify actions and strategies to meet these ambitious targets, in 2023 the City developed two Energy Action Plans – one focused on Government Operations and the other focused on the broader City of Falls Church Community.
