Think about it. A municipal council cannot force homeowners to turn down their thermostats or insulate insulate their homes. But it can improve the community's overall overall energy efficiency through wise planning. And a council cannot force drivers to have their cars tuned for more efficient operation. But in larger centres it can encourage encourage drivers to leave vehi- # cles at home by providing a fast, comfortable and reliable public transit service. There is no universal rule -- each municipality has its ' , own problems and needs. That's why the Ontario Ministry Ministry of Energy published a free booklet called Energy Efficiency Efficiency in Municipalities: The Law. , "This^amphlet datalogues numerous ways by which mu- - nicipalities can incorporate energy efficiency 'into their official plans and bylaws," Ene.rgy Minister Robert Welch ", says. "Local council members can pursue the methods they feel are most appropriate for their community." Municipalities in Ontario can use their legal powers to improve the efficient use of energy', both through energy conservation and through increasing increasing the use of renewable energy sources. For example, councils-can plan and zone for medium- density, mixed-use developments. developments. These are the most energy efficient because: • mixed-use means stores and services are closer to the homes; • units are usually smaller or semi-detached which means reduced external surface and less heat loss through walls or roofs; • houses are closer together so municipal and other services services are more energy efficient; • there is a greater potential for public transit ear pooling and district heating. Even the layout of a subdivision subdivision can be made more energy energy efficient when things are considered such as: • constructing houses with a southern exposure to make optimum use of passive solar energy; • ensuring access to sunshine through careful design of building shape, location arid height; • using landscaping design to shelter homes from prevailing winds. • When it comes to saving gasoline, there are many things a municipal council can do, such as: • making public transit more attractive by improving service; • encouraging use of carpools, vahpoOls -or public transit by setting aside special traffic lanes during rush hours for buses or vehicles carrying several occupants; • smoothing traffic flows by restricting on-street parking and converting four-way stops to two-way stop's wherever possible. These are just some of the ways Ontario municipalities can help improve energy efficiency. efficiency.
