Subject: Mandates for electricity use
Mayor Harmon:
When I hike up Madonna, I always look for solar panels on rooftops. When I drive by new developments going
up, I always look for solar panels on rooftops. Yes, I am always taken aback at how few people have installed
1
rooftop solar, and it is a real concern that SLO has not mandated rooftop solar for new construction, and that the
city has not installed panels for its own use. It seems to me this is a logical first step in any mandated movement
toward an all-electric city. As members of our local community and as citizens of the world, we are obliged to
hand over a world to our children that is better than the one we inherited. On the energy side of things, we will
not do that unless we all individually and collectively take action now to reduce use of fossil fuels.
