Town of Colma Town Hall

Town Hall is not only all-electric, but also 100% renewable energy because the Town chose to ‘opt-up' to ECO100 from Peninsula Clean Energy (the Town previously had ECO Plus with 50% renewable energy). Town Hall is also Certified Green through California's Green Business Certification Program and met requirements to conserve energy, reduce water consumption, reduce waste to landfill to reduce our carbon footprint.

Additionally, Town Hall's landscaping and maintenance use the Bay Friendly Landscaping guidelines. In the Town Hall parking lot, the Town also installed two electric vehicle chargers for use by the Town staff and the public (100% renewable energy). The project is also solar-ready for future solar installation. These additional sustainability actions that go beyond construction/renovation for an all-electric building were guided by the City Council and Town management to ensure the Town “led by example” for the Town's residents and businesses as we encourage them to integrate electrification and other sustainability actions to reduce their carbon footprints. Design goals for the project included adding space for community engagement, incorporating sustainability requirements, strengthening historic integrity and expanding space for staff.
