Remodelers Council Board Meeting & Conversation with Cause IMPACTS

Special Guests: Natalie Lehman and Jessica Daugherty with Cause IMPACTS.

Give your input for the City of Iowa City’s efforts to be greener and reduce its environmental footprint. From 11:45 a.m. – 12:15 p.m., prior to the Remodelers Council June Board Meeting, Iowa City Area HBA builders and remodelers are invited join in virtually or in person to provide perspective from both the home owner and builder/remodeler during a conversation with Cause IMPACTS.

The City of Iowa City hired Cause IMPACTS to conduct research and learn from the community how the city can assist residents and businesses to adopt behaviors that save money and reduce its collective environmental impact, while improving the quality of life, health and well-being for all who live and work in Iowa City. Step 1 is to understand the perceived barriers and benefits to energy efficiency and transportation practices within the city. Facilitators will be Jessica Daugherty and Natalie Lehman from Cause IMPACTS. Find bios below.
