Climate Adaption and Mitigation - Planning or Assessment

Selected Strategy(ies)Explanatory Text
Adoption of building codes that consider impacts from extreme weather events and natural disastersBuilding codes can encourage implementation of mitigation and adaptation techniques for extreme weather events and natural disasters. Codes may require that infrastructure be planned and built to avoid or minimize future damage or costly repairs from increased frequency and intensity of flooding, drought, wildfires, and other projected extreme weather/disaster events. Codes may also lead to energy savings for commercial and residential buildings by specifying minimum requirements for building components such as insulation, water use, heating and cooling systems, lighting, windows, and ventilation systems. Effective building code requirements may vary regionally due to differences in natural hazards.

Additional Property Attributes

Sadler Means young Women's Leadership Academy (YWLA) is a girls-only middle school in East Austin and has educated students in Austin since 1956.
Approximately 94% of Sadler-Means students are economically disadvantaged, 64% are English Language Learners, and 17% have special education needs. Of the 290 students, 78% are Hispanic, 12% African American, 4% Asian, and 3% White. Sadler-Means YWLA is located in a tract (#48453002112) that is considered disadvantaged in the EPA's Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool.

The existing school building will be demolished, and a fully modern campus constructed, with approximately $102M in 2022 AISD bond funds. The modernizations were identified and developed through community planning using an 'Equity by Design' framework, which seeks to understand historical issues and identify root causes in order to more effectively address the challenges facing underserved communities. The school will include outdoor learning opportunities, community support spaces (such as food pantries or community kitchens for when schools function as shelters, or as water and food distribution sites in emergencies) and flexible spaces to promote a variety of teaching and learning methods.
