Green Building & Energy

To create a sustainable community, we will need to enact energy efficient technologies in all our building practices. The Green Building and Energy Subcommittee will develop ordinance recommendations for the city's building codes, and other policy ideas. The group may also develop recommendations for energy conservation practices and projects for alternative energy sources.

Green Building and Energy Subcommittee Chair: Jackson Case, Architect (jacksoncase@att.net)


Active Members: Tom Brown, Ed Buehler, Erik Carlson, Bill Horvath, Alec Linde, and Sara Windjue.


Fire Station No. 2 Gets an Eco-Make Over

The city decided to take the opportunity to use the fire house as a demonstration site for energy efficiency and renewable energy.
