NOT THROUGH THE ROOF: Council wants to see an increase in the modest conversion to solar energy on the beaches.<br />
ty – so far we’ve had lots of interesting<br />
feedback about why<br />
people do and don’t make<br />
that up-front investment.<br />
“It’s fantastic to be getting<br />
such a great response from<br />
people sharing their views<br />
and experiences.<br />
“And of course, at Council<br />
we are doing our bit too – by<br />
the end of <strong>June</strong>, Council will<br />
have installed 390kw of solar<br />
panels on 35 of Council’s<br />
buildings.”<br />
Although the official survey<br />
period closed in May, the<br />
Mayor said he was happy for<br />
people to email him directly<br />
with their ideas or reasons<br />
why they do/don’t have solar;<br />
email him at mayor@northernbeaches.nsw.gov.au<br />
Council is currently preparing<br />
a report outlining the<br />
barriers, the approach and a<br />
proposed target for residential<br />
solar panel installations;<br />
it’s anticipated the report will<br />
be tabled by August.<br />
