PROGRESS REPORT

With the completion of upgrades occurring later in the fiscal year, the agency has not seen any considerable cost savings to date but has not had an increase in cost.

GOALS

Our agency strives to be as energy and water efficient as possible.

Utility Conservation Goals
Utility Target Year Benchmark Year Percentage Goal
Water 2025 2021 1
Electricity 2025 2020 1
Transportation Fuels 2025 2021 1
Natural Gas 2025 2021 1

STRATEGY FOR ACHIEVING GOALS

Roof replacement and upgrade projects were completed at three of our facilities - the use of newer materials will reduce energy consumption. Generator replacement and upgrades are in-progress at all five facilities.

IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE

The implementation schedule is currently in progress agency-wide. We are using in-house maintenance teams for installation.

AGENCY FINANCE STRATEGY

The agency will fund investments with existing construction and general revenues.

EMPLOYEE AWARENESS PLAN

The agency has created an employee awareness campaign, posting flyers to remind staff and youth of the importance of conservation.

Consider your cleaning options. For the most energy savings in a commercial space, consider:

  • Team cleaning – Janitors move as a team, floor-by-floor through the building, and switch lights on and off as they go.
  • Occupancy sensors – Motion sensors automatically switch lights on when janitors are cleaning and switch them off when the floor is vacant.
  • Coordinated effort – Janitors coordinate with security crew to walk through the building and turn off equipment inadvertently left on by tenants.
  • Day cleaning – Janitors clean during the day when lights already are on.
