Dear Commissioner Eisenhour,
This is a reminder that we have an interactive webinar coming up soon for local government officials to share information on upcoming opportunities at the state and local levels to reduce
pollution in and from buildings, and to preview Climate Solutions’ 2023 legislative priorities and our recommendations for Jefferson County’s legislative agenda. We’ve scheduled this
at two separate times, and hope you’ll be able to join us for one of them:
* This coming Monday, September 12th, 3-4pm: RSVP here <https://climatesolutions.salsalabs.org/lgosept12> , or
* Wednesday, September 21st, noon-1pm: RSVP here <https://climatesolutions.salsalabs.org/lgosept21>
And if you haven’t already, please consider signing our letter from local elected officials to the State Building Code Council <https://climatesolutions.salsalabs.org/leosbccresidential/index.html>
in support of the proposed updates to the state energy code for new residential construction.
Finally, I came across another good summary <https://www.mondaq.com/unitedstates/renewables/1226528/historic-clean-energy-incentive-opportunities-for-local-governments-under-inflation-reduction-act>
(in addition to the blog post <https://blogs.law.columbia.edu/climatechange/2022/08/22/cities-the-inflation-reduction-act/> from Columbia Law I sent last week) of the provisions of
the Inflation Reduction Act affecting local governments which you may find useful. This new law is loaded with tax incentives for clean energy that could benefit your constituents (many
of which are available directly to government entities and non-profits, even if they don’t have a federal tax obligation) as well as grant opportunities that local governments may be
able to take advantage of.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions, or if you’d like to unsubscribe <mailto:brian.emanuels@climatesolutions.org?subject=Please%20remove%20me%20from%20your%20local%20elected%20off

Thanks --Brian
