E. BUILDING PRACTICES

  • Municipalities should require that public buildings, including public schools and universities, incorporate passive-solar heating elements and other energy- efficient measures in construction and renovation.
  • Municipalities should require additional insulation and double-pane window glass, or insulated shutters, on all new residential, commercial and government construction.
  • Municipalities should revise zoning laws to allow for the protection of solar access and other small-scale energy production units.
