Ce rapport recommande et fournit un projet de texte pour un règlement municipal sur la chaleur maximale, qui obligerait les propriétaires à maintenir une température maximale de 26°C dans les logements locatifs. La recommandation tient compte de l'aggravation de la crise climatique et de l'impact disproportionné de la chaleur extrême sur les populations vulnérables, notamment les personnes âgées, les personnes souffrant de maladies chroniques et de problèmes de mobilité, et les personnes socialement et matériellement défavorisées.
