A. <br />Information <br />Meeting Date: July 19, 2010 XX Action Item <br />- Consent Agenda <br />SUBJECT: Energy Savings and Energy Grants for Lee County Buildings <br />General Services/Administration <br />CONTACT PERSON: John Crumpton - Daniel Dowell with Linc Services <br />REQUEST: Discussion and Direction on Investment Grade Energy Audit <br />• SUMMARY: The County was approached by Linc Energy Services and McGill <br />and Associates about conducting an energy audit and applying for energy grant funds through the <br />American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Linc Energy conducted the energy audit and McGill <br />and Associates helped complete the grant application. The County was notified 4 weeks ago that <br />we were awarded the energy grant in the amount of $170,000. This notice allowed us to begin <br />reviewing the entire energy audit plan. The audit plan shows where savings can be achieved by <br />upgrading our facilities so that less energy will be used. The energy savings are used to finance <br />the improvements in the buildings. Daniel Dowell with Linc Services will be present to explain the <br />audit how the financing of the improvements can work. <br />BUDGET IMPACT: Will be discussed as part of the presentation. <br />ATTACHMENT(S): (1) Investment Grade Audit Report from Linc Services <br />(2) Power point presentation <br />PUBLIC HEARING: No <br />PRIOR BOARD ACTION: Board of Commissioners approved conducting the energy audit at <br />their October 191h, 2009 meeting. <br />RECOMMENDATION: Review audit. Once the Board feels comfortable with the plan, allow <br />the County staff and Linc Services to begin the RFQ process. <br />u <br />
