| | 4. | | Update and request from Jennifer Evans for volunteers to organize events to gain community feedback on Green Buildings recommendations
Minutes note: Social Pinpoint platform will be used for public feedback
Events proposed by Education/Outreach group
Virtual events
Simple Zoom Q&A on particular proposals
Green Buildings could do one on commercial buildings
Target this event to the real estate community
In person events
Green Buildings – energy efficiency and retrofits
Target this to residents
Community meetings to explore concerns and obstacles should be included in the planning, per Haeffel
More details on the actual proposal will be helpful prior to the event
These events could reach people without much access to technology
Shambarger points out that many of the proposals address low-income populations; we need to reach these populations and communicate to them how they will benefit from the proposals
Ritger commented that in future certain organizations could be solicited for feedback on more specific proposals from the task force

| | 5. | | Opportunity for further discussion of ICLEI modeling results
Minutes note: Shambarger reported that a deep retrofit would be required in order to achieve a greater result than the 2% that was modeled; 15% energy savings per home that was modeled could potentially be bumped up to as much as 30%
Electrification of buildings must be highlighted and planned out in order for us to achieve the modeled results
Affordability of energy efficiency and electrification is a critical piece for getting customers on board
The utility portion of the model is the largest; We Energies has committed to zero carbon by 2050 and the PSC is working on a Roadmap to Zero; economics and pressure in the industry seem to be driving this turn around in renewable energy adoption by We Energies
