Southern Village HOA

The Town of Chapel Hill is conducting a Town-wide energy efficiency program for homeowners called WISE Homes & Building Program.  The Town will provide subsidies that will lower the cost of eligible home improvements by 25-50%.  These subsidies are designed to incent “deep” energy efficiency improvements, meaning 15% or greater energy savings per home.  For more visit the Town’s WISE program website at http://www.townofchapelhill.org/index.aspx?page=1666.

Duke Energy is giving away free CFLs.  To see how many bulbs you qualify for, complete their quick and easy sign-up process and receive your CFLs in four to six weeks at your home: http://www.duke-energy.com/freecfls/default.asp?utm_source=webpromo&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=IVRWEB.

Mark your calendar.  The Going Green Committee is planning an energy conservations clinic and a composting clinic on the Green at the first Farmers Market this season on May 5th.  Stay tuned for more.
