Condos, rental apartments and commercial buildings now have a variety of new incentives and programs available to support building retrofits, which can help reduce energy and emissions, improve affordability, and prepare your building for future regulatory requirements.

Join the District of Saanich and other partners for an informative webinar that will explore the significant funding and retrofit concierge programs now available for commercial and multi-family buildings in Saanich, including Saanich’s novel Climate Action Tax Exemption (CATE) program, which provides a municipal tax holiday for electrification retrofits. Discover how to qualify your project and benefit from a municipal property tax exemption covering up to 100% of project costs for multi-unit residential buildings and 50-80% for commercial properties.

Designed for building owners, property managers, strata councils or strata owners and other interested building professionals, this webinar will speak to why many building owners and managers are considering electrifying their building’s systems, help you identify the incentives available, and get you connected to a support program to get started.

Join us on Wednesday, March 5th from 12:00 – 1:00 pm. Register today!
