Comments on the Draft CAP 2.0 2021.12.22 Page Comment Comment From Is there a way to make the primary pathway less dependent on single -occupancy cars (even if they are electric)? Transit, biking, walking all have lower GHG impacts than any type of car. Understandable if this is what is achievable for Anonymous 30 Pleasanton but something to consider for future CAPs. Does this mean "...shifting *heating* from natural gas to electric fuels..."? I wouldn't think any building is generating its 35 own electricity on-site, but rather buying it from PG&E - so PG&E determines the source of electricity. Is this strategy Todd Nelson about converting natural gas heating to electric heating? 36 36 Staff and the E&E Commission would draft, for council approval, an "electrification trigger policy". This would require electrification of commercial and industrial buildings (and perhaps residential) when they are sold or expanded or any other trigger that would open the door to this modification. You may consider the policy for new building electrification that San Louis Obispo has adopted. Although they strongly promote all -electric new construction, they allow some exceptions (like for commercial kitchens) and allow for some mixed -fuel installations as long as the building is pre -wired for future electrification and the building exceeds other energy efficiency standards. See the text of the ordinance here: https:Hopengov.slocity.org/WebLink/DocView.aspx?id=122344&dbid=0&repo=CityClerk&cr=1 Jocelyn Combs Phil Bowman "Covered Projects" Will all new commercial and residential projects then be emissions free and/or carbon neutral? What about projects that ncrease VMT and commute related GHG emissions? Can the City require 100% mitigation 37 on these anticipated impacts through developer participation in Pleasanton's other CAP 2.0 programs on site or within Becky Dennis Pleasanton's planning area? Can we develop incentive programs to attract projects that will be net neutral? Why is the electrification requirement only imposed on new residential construction of at least 2000 square feet? Why Phil Bowman 37 not ANY new construction? Suggestion: Reword this to require ALL new residential construction to be compliant. Storage systems vary widely in capacity. A residential storage system capable of supporting an hour of power outage 38 is much different than one capable of sustaining a house solely on solar panels continuously. At some point, storage Todd Nelson capacity will need to be defined. Consider modifying this so that the "covered building" includes any residential projects or additions where the CUMULATIVE size of the additions since the time this policy was enacted exceeds 2000 square feet. This will prevent Phil Bowman someone trying to circumvent the rule by doing two separate additions over time where each addition by itself may be 38 less than 2000 square feet.
