276: Edie Dillman and Karen Ramsey on Fort Collins' Designed to 2030

In this episode of The Passive House Podcast Jay Fox interviews Edie Dillman (co-founder and CEO of B.Public Prefab) and Karen Ramsey (founder and sustainability strategist at Building Wellness) about Fort Collins, Colorado’s Design to 2030 pilot program. They describe B.Public’s panelized, Passive House–standard prefab shell system launched in 2019 and Ramsey’s consulting work supporting Passive House projects, including rebuild efforts after the Marshall Fire and work tied to the Los Angeles fire rebuild. The conversation centers on Fort Collins’ plan to provide affordable, permit-ready, high-performance home plan sets tailored to local climate and code, with community outreach to determine needed housing types and builder training on panelization and key Passive House techniques.
