Sustainability Forum March 21st 2023

The Town of Verona is pleased to announce that we are hosting a “Sustainability Forum” for everyone interested in these topics.  We hope this will be the first in a series of presentations on energy efficiency, sustainability, global warming, and conservation issues.  The first presentation will be Tuesday evening March 21st 2023, from 7 to 9 pm and will feature speakers Kathy Kuntz and Chad Laibly. The location is the Town of Verona Community Room, 7669 County Highway PD, Verona. We will allow plenty of time for questions and discussion of these timely topics.  Light refreshments and snacks will be served.

The 2022 Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is the largest government investment in climate action in history. And 2/3 of the funds are tax credits for businesses, households and—for the first time—tax exempt entities. Director of the Dane County Office of Energy and Climate Change Kathy Kuntz will talk about all the ways that you can leverage IRA funding for energy efficiency, electrification, renewable energy projects and electric vehicle purchases.

Chad Laibly is an energy advisor with Focus on Energy. He will be presenting the details of Focus on Energy’s rebate programs and discuss further ways to increase the energy efficiency of your home. From rebates on insulation and air sealing to providing multiple ideas that can help you save energy right away, Chad has given this presentation for years and will be available for specific questions following the presentation.
