In this episode we speak about the Massachusetts stretch building code as well as energy efficiency, fossil fuel dependence, housing capacity & struggles on Cape Cod and more with Constance Kremer, Hakim Janah and David Abel. David joins us about half way through the interview.
This fall at the Orleans town meeting, the expansion of the stretch code failed the town vote and I wanted to further discuss the details of why, and what the upside is to this new structure should it someday be adopted. At town meeting Hakim gave a great speech in support of this new measure, which led to Constance and I discussing the idea of making this episode to dig deeper on this topic.
Constance is on the Finance Committee in Orleans and also owns Kremer & Daughters interior design. Hakim is on the Energy & Climate committee in Orleans and was prior an engineer in a large scale industry leading energy supplier. David Abel is also on the Finance Committee in Orleans with Constance and works in housing management/development and planning .
This is certainly a part 1 of two or three on this topic as there is much to be discussed. Thank you so much for listening as always!
