This makes it possible to better reflect sunlight in particular, thus controlling the heat of the building. Air conditioning can be used sparingly, PFM TV explains.
In addition, the text provides for planting several trees, which will bring more freshness in the event of extreme heat, with temperatures soaring above 50 degrees this summer. The municipality expects these new rules to initially apply to the neighborhood, which can accommodate 9,000 new homes.
