Help Shape San Mateo’s Sustainable Building Future

Switching from natural gas to carbon-free electric equipment in our homes and buildings is critical to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in our community. Gas appliances release air pollutants and studies have shown that exposure to these pollutants pose significant health risks. In addition to advancing our climate goals, electrification eliminates these risks and can provide a safer and healthier environment. The Electrify San Mateo project team will be presenting existing building electrification policy pathways at three upcoming City Commission meetings:

• May 12: Senior Advisory Commission
• May 14: Sustainability and Infrastructure Commission
• May 21: Community Relations Commission

We invite you to share your feedback and shape the Electrify San Mateo: Sustainable Building Strategy. Community feedback will be shared with City Council tentatively scheduled for June 2025. Please see the Public Meeting Portal for meeting agenda and information posted roughly one week before the Commission meetings.
