Who this typically touches

Business types a matter in this class typically reaches. Our inference from the class, not the record's words; a specific organization is named on these pages only when the record itself names it.

Likely to gain: energy-audit and efficiency contractors; solar and heat-pump installers; climate and resilience planning consultants; resilience and energy planning consultants (the plan itself is a commissioned study before it is a project); municipal facility and infrastructure contractors (adopted plans name retrofit and drainage work with dates attached).

Worth watching: utilities serving the town (targets and retrofit programs change load and program demand).
