Appendices <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Page B-25 <br /> <br />Support is high for city-led efforts to increase energy efficiency; seventy percent would support a <br />Residential Energy Conservation Ordinance that requires that buildings be retrofitted for energy <br />efficiency at the time of resale or when undergoing major renovation. Over seventy percent <br />would participate in a free energy audit and eighty-two percent would like to see the city provide <br />low interest loans to residents to make energy-efficient improvements. <br /> <br />A majority of respondents also indicated a willingness to pay an additional six dollars a month to <br />offset the greenhouse gas emissions of their energy use, but many commented that they would <br />need to learn more about the program first and expressed concern about the effectiveness of <br />carbon credits.
