A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING THE
CITY MANAGER TO PROVIDE A PUBLIC BENEFITS PROGRAM
GRANT TO UNITED CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
WHEREAS, the State has mandated that beginning January 1, 1998, the City of
Lodi is obligated to fund various programs through a Public Benefits Charge (PBC)
based on a historical electric revenue requirement; and
WHEREAS, the requirement amounts to approximately $1 M per year that must
be dedicated to qualifying programs such as energy efficiency. A further stipulation is
that these efforts must be done on the customer's side of the meter in order to qualify;
and
WHEREAS, the City of Lodi Electric Utility, in partnership with Energy Masters,
International, completed a Comprehensive Energy Engineered Analysis of United
Congregational Church located at 701 S. Hutchins Street. As a result of this
assessment, it has identified specific energy conservation measures and the associated
energy, maintenance and operational savings that could be implemented as part of
United Congregational's overall construction project. Specifically, United Congregational
Church will be installing and/or retrofitting the following items within their facility:
> removing a number of inefficient HVAC (heating & cooling) units on the classroom
area of the church property, and installing new, highly efficient HVAC heat pump
units;
> retrofitting all existing classroom, office space and sanctuary lighting with state-of-
the-art fluorescent lighting and associated controls;
> installing a new, 15 -ton energy efficient air cooled chiller (air conditioning system) for
the sanctuary;
> replacing the existing boiler, with a new, highly efficient piece of equipment that will
compliment the aforementioned 15 -ton chiller;
> installing a new automated control logic system (often referred to as an energy
management system) designed to allow church personnel the ability to remotely
schedule (turn on/off) and operate the facilities HVAC system.
WHEREAS, the Public Benefits Program Grant in the amount of $75,769.75
reflects a 25% energy efficiency incentive rebate for the total cost of the project to United
Congregational Church. The 25% rebate is consistent with all other rebates offered to
commercial and industrial electric utility customers throughout Lodi that participate in the
City of Lodi Energy Services Partnership Program (which is an element of the City of
Lodi Public Benefits Program).
WHEREAS, the Electric Utility Department recommends that the City provide a
Public Benefits Program Grant of $75,769.75 for a demand-side management project at
United Congregational Church.
BE IT RESOLVED, that the Lodi City Council hereby authorizes the City
Manager to provide a Public Benefits Program Grant in the amount of $75,769.75 to
United Congregational Church for a Comprehensive Energy Engineered Analysis.
