Every three years, California updates its building code. Local "Reach Codes" - Piedmont's energy efficiency requirements that go beyond the state minimum - must be updated at the same time.
Proposed updates will come before the City Council this fall. For the 2025 update, we're considering:
- keeping existing single-family requirements
- making it easier to meet energy efficiency goals by adding more options and incentivizing higher-impact measures
- Adding new requirements for multi-family housing
We'd like to hear about your experience and make sure these updates make sense for our community. The survey should take about 2 minutes.
Survey responses will be visible on this website after the survey is closed. You can choose to display your response with or without your name attached.
