Just finished the webinar and boy howdy, we're in trouble here on the frontier! :o

As I suspected, there will be no way for us to meet the recycling portion, there are almost NO HVAC units (LPG or electric) installed here (woodstoves & direct vent room heaters are the norm), and the local contractors shop a lot over the border in OR. I think I will have to institute a 'green building' permit fee to cover all of the extra requirements.

Wish me luck!

Sue, in the wild, wild, wild west........:mrgreen:
 
How will you enforce the recycling requirements if the goals are not met?

The conundrum of the day! Local trash company doesn't even have recycling bins for home/commercial. I have a dumpster in my driveway because I live outside the city limits and the trash collection route. All wood, tree trimmings, etc., is burned at the transfer station and everything else is put in a big truck and sent to the dumpsite in NV. I wonder if a local amendment would work..........:confused:

And I love the bicycle rack requirement. I awoke to snow this AM, 3/4 of the year here is not condusive to any type of outdoor activity, much less bike riding. I don't know about you but bike riding in a snowstorm is not exactly my idea of fun. :mrgreen:

Sue, welcome to the 'other CA', where the west still lives..................
