Commercial buildings supply 10 percent of that. Analysis from the city’s Depart- ment of Sustainability and the nonprofi t City Energy Project indicates that the or- dinance will cut an estimated 29 tons of nitrogen oxides — a key contributor to wintertime air pollution — from the air each year. More gains can be realized if building owners voluntarily tune-up their buildings or install new equipment. “Nonresidential buildings represent 51 percent of Salt Lake City’s commu- nity-wide carbon footprint,” said Kevin Emerson, director of energy effi ciency programs for Utah Clean Energy, a local nonprofi t. “By adopting this this innova- tive policy, Utah’s capital city is leading the way to help improve air quality and lower climate emissions by using market forces to encourage greater levels of en- ergy savings in large buildings. “Utah Clean Energy has long worked to reduce energy waste from our homes and buildings and this ordinance is a gi- ant leap forward in reducing unnecessary pollution from buildings in a way that also benefi ts businesses’ bottom line.” Utah Clean Energy said Salt Lake City is the 25th U.S. city to enact a policy of this type and called it “a big win and vital step forward for Salt Lake City’s air quality and economy.” The ordinance also helps the city achieve its “Climate Positive” goals of transitioning the community to 100 per- cent clean electricity by 2032, followed by an overall greenhouse gas reduction of 80 percent by 2040. “The city’s carbon reduction goals are aggressive, but they are completely at- tainable with strategies like this to reduce emissions,” said council member Erin Mendenhall. “Cities use these types of programs and tools effectively across the country to improve air quality, and those cities are successful at attracting talent and economic development, because this is important to people.” Among business leaders who submit- ted comments to the city in favor of the or- dinance are Bob Best of commercial real estate company JLL; Hanko Kiessner of Packsize; Kenner Kingston, president of Arch Nexus; and Adam Knoff of commer- cial real estate company Unico Properties.
