Portland 今午听证现有建筑气候健康标准：大型建筑减排走出关键一步
位于俄勒冈州马尔特诺马县的波特兰市，位于俄勒冈州的 Portland 市，市议会住房与许可委员会今天（10月20日）下午2点就《现有建筑气候与健康标准》（Climate and Health Standards for Existing Buildings）举行公众听证。听证会在市政厅议会厅（1221 SW Fourth Avenue）以线上线下混合方式举行，公众可通过市府 YouTube 频道、Open Signal 网站及 Xfinity 30/330 频道收看，今日议程为该议题安排了长达150分钟的讨论时段。
这项由市府推动的新规将覆盖面积超过2万平方英尺的大型建筑，要求其削减碳排放，并提高居住健康标准与对租户的透明度与保护。据环保组织 350PDX 介绍，建筑物碳排放约占 Portland 全市温室气体排放的近一半，新规是 Portland 气候行动中的关键一步；该政策由市议员 Candace Avalos 及其团队在社区参与基础上起草。
若通过，这将是 Portland 首次针对存量大型建筑制定强制性气候健康标准，预计将影响全市数千栋商业与大型住宅建筑。（GSM 据 Portland 市政府官网议程及 350PDX 资料）
Portland Holds Hearing on Climate and Health Standards for Existing Buildings
Portland is a city in Multnomah County, Oregon. The Portland City Council's Housing and Permitting Committee held a public hearing at 2:00 p.m. today, October 20, on the proposed Climate and Health Standards for Existing Buildings, in Council Chambers at City Hall, 1221 SW Fourth Avenue, in Portland, Oregon. The hybrid meeting was carried on the city's YouTube channel, the Open Signal website and Xfinity channels 30 and 330, with 150 minutes scheduled for the item.
The proposed policy would cover large buildings over 20,000 square feet, requiring emissions reductions while increasing health standards, transparency and protections for renters. According to the environmental group 350PDX, buildings account for nearly half of Portland's greenhouse gas emissions, making the policy a key step in the city's climate action; the proposal was drafted by Councilor Candace Avalos and her team following community engagement.
If adopted, it would be Portland's first mandatory climate and health standard for existing large buildings, affecting thousands of commercial and large residential buildings across the city. (GSM, via the City of Portland agenda and 350PDX)
