Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers. The world has finally woken up to the realities that we’re facing with climate
change. We’ve been asleep for far too long on this issue and we have a lot of work to do if we hope to reverse the path
we’re on. We’ve been doing a good job at cleaning up our electric grid. We’re now in the position of our transportation
and buildings sectors the worst of our carbon emitters, and while we change our vehicles in less than 10 years, our
buildings last well past the 30 years we have to get to a carbon neutral community. The time to start phasing out gas in
our new buildings is now. Please do not hesitate on this effort to promote the move to all-electric new construction.
Thank you for your leadership in this effort!
