Webinar: Stretch Code Proposals Info Session for Municipal Stakeholders
Wednesday, March 2, 2022 | 3:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
We will be joined by staff from the Department of Energy Resources (DOER) to talk through the integral components of the two straw proposals DOER announced on March 8, 2022. The first proposal is to update the existing Stretch Code, already adopted by 299 municipalities in Massachusetts, and the second is a proposal for a new municipal specialized opt-in “net zero” code, which municipalities will have the option to adopt starting in December 2022.
The Accelerating Climate Resilience 2023 Speaker Series invites you to join us for our next webinar: Building Community Resilience: Starting with Mental Health. Join us on November 15 from 12pm to 1pm to learn more navigating the impacts of climate change on mental health and wellbeing.
