If you buy in bulk yes the price goes down but even by me in bulk it’s $6,000-$8,000/acre. Shitty land will go a bit cheaper and by me I mean in the country. There’s a town not far from me called Clarence and orchard park and land can go for $100,000 an acre out there. I’m surprised to see the land for sale on this site for $30,000/acre because that’s super cheap.
The issue is there won’t even be gas lines ran there. By me it’s all natural gas lines buried under the ground and hard pipes to your home. I’m not sure you’d get a propane truck by me for anything reasonable because it’s probably an hour plus round trip for a fill up. Anything by me on propane is 30-45 minute ride one way.
Understood. So the ban is by the house itself it sounds like. If it was hooked up that way you can continue to buy that type of appliance since that’s a valid appliance type for your dwelling.
That’s what I understand it to be. They aren’t going to ban gas stoves from being sold so there is a lot of wiggle room IMO. It seems to me what they did is new builds for people like us after 2026? will be built all electric and have no gas hook ups in the home or ran to the home. Larger ones after 2028? will have to be done the same. I think the cut off was 7 stories. Lots of numbers and dates running around in my head so these might be off.
When I ran water lines to my shop I put everyting in a 3" pvc pipe so I could also drag through cat6 and RG6. I also put in a piece of 1/2" poly tubing so I could have compressed air in the house. That was the best decision ever, no more stringing 200 foot of hose across the lawn to run a nailer, just plug in under the kitchen sink.
Oh that’s good.
So? They won't ban it by legislation. They'll just tax the hell out of gas permits and natural gas. They'll thus get their ban by pricing non-green fuels out of existence.What 9th Circuit ruling means for building gas bans
What 9th Circuit ruling means for building gas bans
A federal court decision striking down a landmark gas ban in Berkeley, Calif., is spurring debate about the implications for similar restrictions around thewww.eenews.net
The three judges on the 9th Circuit unanimously sided with the association, finding that the Energy Policy and Conservation Act “expressly preempts” state and local restrictions on gas appliances’ energy use (E&E News PM, April 17). By prohibiting gas piping, the city of Berkeley had indirectly banned gas appliances, despite federal laws against it, the judges wrote.
