Our September 9th meeting is going to be GREAT! Here's what you can expect:
Marisa LaFrance, Resource Educator with the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Rensselaer County will talk to us about the new federal lead regulations and how they will affect us as landlords when repairing or renovating older properties. She will also talk about Cornell’s Primary Lead Prevention Education programs, and how Cornell Extension can help individuals comply with the new rules. Certification requirements are already in effect, so if you have any questions about your responsibilities and how to proceed from here, or what resources may be available to you, bring them to Marisa!
Also joining us this month is Jeanie Orr, Project Coordinator with the Capital District Tobacco-Free Coalition. It’s been over a year since Jeanie first introduced us to the idea of smoke-free housing, and Jeanie will share with us her experiences gained since then, and refresh us on how to establish our property as “smoke-free.” If you have smoke-free apartments, bring your stories to tell – good or bad! If you’ve never thought about going smoke-free, come and find out all the reasons why you should consider it. Got questions? Jeanie’s got the answers!
And last but not least, Darin Cook, Energy Auditor with ICF International will join us to talk about the National Grid Energy Wise Multifamily Energy Efficiency Program, designed for buildings with 5 - 50 units. Darin will explain more about the program and the benefits to the building owner, distribute some literature, and take any questions that anyone has. We can’t control the rates we pay for energy, but we can control how much we use. Come and learn how National Grid can help your building be more energy efficient.
September is PACKED with information! Don’t miss it!
