DEPARTMENT REPORTS This time is reserved for City staff to provide a briefing on issues of interest.

NEW BUSINESS 4.1 UPCOMING CODE ADOPTIONS - ALL-ELECTRIC ONLY REQUIREMENTS AND PROPOSALS Staff will provide an update on the 2019 City Council adopted All-Electric Only Ordinance. The requirement applies to all new Low-Rise Residential construction (3-stories or less). Council adopted a stand-alone ordinance based in the California Energy Code which required the execution of a cost-effectiveness study. The California Energy Commission has determined that Reach Code adoptions for decarbonization do not require a cost-effectiveness study for 2022 codes provided the adoption resides within the California Green Building Standards Code. For 2023; it is proposed to adopt the All-Electric Only requirement for new Low-Rise Residential construction by amending the 2022 California Green Building Standards Code. The Subcommittee may discuss this item and provide direction to staff.
