Summary: Vote for Energy Code at Town Meeting

When: May 01, 2024
Time:23:00 - 01:00

Description

On May 1 at the Ashland Spring Town Meeting the Select Board, Sustainability Committee and Energize Ashland are asking Town Meeting to adopt the Specialized Energy Code, which applies to new construction only (not additions or renovations) and aligns with Ashland’s net zero goals.  

 This Specialized Energy Code will give buyers of new construction the opportunity to take advantage of high-efficiency energy systems, while still allowing flexibility.

 Adopting this Specialized Energy Code will help the Town of Ashland take an essential step towards net zero, benefit from a healthier environment, and qualify for additional state grants.
