Webinar: International Energy Conservation Code Adoption Process and Impact @ Online
Jun 18 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm
MAPC will be hosting a webinar on Monday, June 18, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM that will focus on connecting municipalities to the power of the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) adoption process. As the new IECC will largely be adopted by Massachusetts, the energy provisions included in the IECC have a substantial impact on the MA state building code and climate change more broadly. Municipalities can register to vote on the IECC, and empower important clean energy code updates to gain adoption. The webinar will feature Bill Fay of the Energy Efficient Codes Coalition (EECC) and Ian Finlayson of the Department of Energy Resources (DOER) Energy Efficiency Division.
Register for the webinar here.

Cambridge Autonomous Vehicles Educational Forum @ Cambridge Public Library Lecture Hall
Mar 7 @ 5:30 pm – 8:00 pm

Join the City of Cambridge, MAPC, our partners, and other members of the public for a forum on autonomous vehicles (AVs).

Pre-registration is appreciated, but not required.

The City of Cambridge has begun the process of creating a Future of Mobility Implementation Blueprint to help prepare for and shape new mobility options in a way that meets our community goals, meets the mobility needs of all people who live in, work in, and visit Cambridge, and is well integrated with our sustainable transportation system. This forum is an opportunity for you to:

  • learn about the role of the Local, State, and Federal government in managing AVs,
  • hear from researchers who are thinking about the interactions between AVs and people, and
  • engage with the people behind the technology to gain a better understanding of the state of the technology, plans for the future, and challenges.

Confirmed speakers:

  • Joseph E. Barr | Director | Cambridge Traffic, Parking, and Transportation Department
  • Susanne Rasmussen | Director of Environmental and Transportation Planning | Cambridge Community Development Department
  • Alison Felix | Senior Transportation Planner and Emerging Technologies Specialist | Metropolitan Area Planning Commission
  • Bryan Reimer | Research Scientist | MIT AgeLab
  • Ryan Jacobs | Director, Boston Operations | nuTonomy

This event is hosted by the City of Cambridge in partnership with the Metropolitan Area Planning Commission.
