Gatto added that he <br />would like to see the slides. Betzhold directed Schlaepfer to present the slides concerning public feedback. <br />Berry asked where the public feedback came from. Betzhold clarified that outreach the City of Louisville did, it <br />was in the June and July Economic Vitality newsletter, in City communications, a news item on website, and <br />hosting public meetings as well as social media. Public feedback was from the survey. <br />Schlaepfer presented results from the public survey to date. The majority is from homeowners, only 30% of <br />respondents were from the commercial sector. The main overall concern is cost; cost to builders and tenants as <br />well as driving business away from Louisville. The second most concern was builders' lack of knowledge <br />regarding new technology. The most common benefit was fighting climate change. <br />RW <br />Kcy Takeaways <br />What's the most important <br />consideration for the City in adopting stricter energy codes for residential and <br />commercial construction? <br />Balancing the "Other" Write-in Responses <br />- <br />need to <br />address .
