Listen "Charles Allen Talks Healthy Homes and Electric Vehicles"
Episode Synopsis
In his latest Hearing the Council video interview, Ward 6 Councilmember Charles Allen discusses three critical environmental measures his committee has recently tackled: Healthy Homes, e-bike incentives, and electric vehicles. In each case, he discusses how he brought an equity lens to broaden voluntary environmental incentives (not requirements!) that otherwise might have excluded lower-income individuals. Plus, for the “fun round,” he suggests how he’d craft a perfect councilmember out of successful traits of past and present colleagues.
