Fall, 2018 Middletown Committee Election.  Possible Q&A  (v0.1)
Candidates for 3 Committee Seats, Nov., 2018: Rick W. Hibell, Anthony S. Perry, Patricia A. Snell, Tricia Maguire, Danielle Walsh, Sean Byrnes                           

Middletown has a growing group of residents interested in Middletown pursuing 100% clean energy.  Clean Energy objectives apply to Middletown government facilities/services, as well as the businesses/residences residing within Middletown.  The goal:   100% electricity by 2035; 100% all energy sectors by 2050

We propose 2 questions, to be answered by each candidate, prior to the Middletown Committee election, November, 2018. These answers would be widely publicized within Middletown.

QUESTION 1:  What are the steps you will take to ensure Middletown quickly achieves 100% clean energy?

Question 1 is the "mitigation" portion of a city's response.

A second question deals with ADAPTATION, PROTECTION AND RESILIENCE AGAINST STORMS AND RISING SEA LEVEL EXPECTED THIS CENTURY
“NJFRAMES” Is a state/regional NJDEP effort, which started in 2017 to work with each of the ~15 cities in the “Two Rivers” region. 

First NJFRAMES worked to identify what to preserve/protect in each town, and issued a summer, 2018 status report.

 Within the next years, NJFRAMES will help develop regional plans for protection and recovery from flooding.

QUESTION 2:  What are your steps to ensure Middletown achieves optimum adaptation and resilience for itself and the region?
