Input needed for S.J. building electrification

San Jose’s long-term plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the impact natural gas homes may have on the residents’ health is to be discussed by the Council in April.

The city needs your input. As I have been meeting with people across the city, it’s clear very few people are aware of this. Please take the time to contact the city staff and give them your opinion on the Public Comment Form.

I support this overall goal but I do not support a deadline to replace gas appliances. I support the replacement of gas appliances with electric ones as the older appliances need replacement. I also believe the city needs to help those residents who will be saddled with large electrical panel costs because of the increased electric demands.

Also, please let me know your opinion and sign up to be kept informed about this issue. Contact me at Dev@DevDavis.com.
