Yesterday, Gavin brought San Francisco into a growing club of cities that fronts the costs of environmental house mods. Berkeley's done it, Palm Desert down in SoCal's done it, and now San Francisco will also be funding things like solar panels by dialing up taxes on improved properties. The money won't be coming out of the city's bank account, but rather will be administered by Oakland-based Renewable Funding. Brace for solar! [Bay Area, previously]
