"The playbook differs from a forward-looking plan; it's a summary of current tactics addressing extreme heat, not necessarily a future strategy to anticipate needs."
"In 2023, Austin experienced over 80 days of 100-degree heat, nearly half exceeding 105 degrees; the Eastern Crescent neighborhoods face the highest social vulnerability."
"Key measures include expanding weatherization programs for vulnerable populations and increasing access to indoor cooling centers in libraries and recreation facilities."
"The Parks Department aims to enhance outdoor spaces through tree planting and shaded areas while Austin Energy promotes energy-efficient air conditioning solutions."
