00:22:10	Callie Fishburn, BCRC:	VECAN webinar registration coming soon. https://vecan.net/municipal-energy-resources/
00:34:25	Nick Morgan:	QUESTION:  On Mini-Grants...do we just apply for $4,000 go ahead and start spending while reporting back...or
00:35:01	Nick Morgan:	do we have to have a budgeted program or programs and apply for a specific amount, say $3,432.75
00:43:23	Daniel Schoener:	Could you please add the link here, as well?
00:43:35	Daniel Schoener:	The link to the application itself.
00:44:57	Chris Campany, WRC:	https://bgs.vermont.gov/municipal-energy-resilience-program
00:46:40	Chris Campany, WRC:	If Weston is here - our excellent member town in Windsor County - y'all would reach out to Margo and/or Mike at WRC.
00:46:43	Daniel Schoener:	Thank you!
00:47:55	Jeff Dexter:	Initially we heard Implementation Funding was available for "Town Hall, meeting place only"-type buildings...which would leave out Town Garages...but recently I heard Town Garages were now eligible. Please clarify? Thx.
00:51:12	Callie Fishburn, BCRC:	Jeff - any municipal building (owned or perpetually leased) is eligible. That would include town garages.
00:52:00	Alex Wilson:	Because this program refers to “energy resilience,” participants in this webinar might be interested in a recently released U.S. Department of Energy study on the relationship between energy performance and resilience that I was involved with—it specifically addresses how energy-efficient buildings help maintain habitable (safer) temperatures during power outages.  It’s fairly dense, but the foreword provides helpful context: https://www.energycodes.gov/sites/default/files/2023-02/Resilience_Buildings_EE_2022.pdf
00:52:25	Jeff Dexter:	Replying to "Jeff - any municipal..."

Thanks Callie. I asked it again because of that initial info we got from BGS.
00:56:47	Callie Fishburn, BCRC:	If your municipality is a member of a Communications Union District that satisfies the internet requirement.
00:57:24	Carl Bucholt:	Will there be a delay for getting an energy audit if we ask for a Level 2 audit? (compared to a Level 1)
00:57:54	Michael McConnell:	It shouldn't Carl.
00:58:26	Donald Capponcelli:	100% ADA compliant?  or 20% of project cost?
00:58:46	Carl Bucholt:	In re: Level 2 audit: What if your town does not have architectural drawings?   Can some local architect do a quick sketch?
01:00:14	Callie Fishburn, BCRC:	Carl - we don't have the finalized list of required documents for level 2 yet, but if your town is missing one or two of the required pieces, that won't disqualify you from a level 2. We (RPCs and BGS) will work with you to see what we can do.
01:07:09	Jeff Dexter:	Meg, Callie, Chris, Mike, thanks for this. GOOD job. Gotta run.
01:07:22	Stephanie Moffett-Hynds:	Thank you so much, all.
