Vancouver City Council approved a motion backing its Deep Emission Building Retrofits Program to support deep carbon reductions in non-City owned buildings. They approved a multi-year capital project budget and annual expenditure budget of $1.5 million for the Deep Emission Building Retrofits Program to be added to the 2019-2022 Capital Plan. Further, they requested staff develop an implementation and funding strategy for the overall program including the remaining $3.5 million for future years in advance of the 2020 Capital Budget. Council also recommended reintroducing its request to the Province of British Columbia for amendments to the Vancouver Charter to allow the City to implement a building energy benchmarking program. BOMA will keep you posted as these new programs unfold.
