A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING THE CITY
MANAGER TO PROVIDE A PUBLIC BENEFITS PROGRAM GRANT TO ST.
ANNE'S SCHOOL
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 $1M 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, St. Anne's School has elected to pursue a demand-side management
project during the summer of 2000, by retrofitting all existing lighting within the school to include
hallways, restrooms, administrative offices, copy room, faculty lounge, library, kitchen and all
classrooms to highly efficient lighting. The scope of work will include:
➢ removal of all existing lighting (in most areas- T12 lamps and magnetic ballasts);
installation of T8 fluorescent lamps and electronic ballasts;
installation of low wattage compact fluorescent lamps;
➢ installation of photo sensors for hallway lighting;
➢ retrofit and convert all EXIT signs from incandescent fixtures to highly efficient LED
technology.
WHEREAS, the Public Benefits Program grant in the amount of $7,065.25 reflects a
25% match of the total cost of the lighting retrofit project at St. Anne's School. Currently, the
school consumes on average, 68,452 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity per year. After
completion of the retrofit, the school looks to save approximately 46,835 kWh per year, or a
dollar savings of roughly $5,500 annually. This is an excellent example of a demand-side
management project, as identified through the City of Lodi Public Benefits Program, and
national energy efficiency standards; and
WHEREAS, after numerous meetings and site visits, the City of Lodi Electric Utility
respectfully recommends approval of this grant as a qualifying component of the City of Lodi
Public Benefits Program.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Lodi City Council hereby authorizes
the City Manager to provide a Public Benefits Grant in the amount of $7,065.25 to St. Anne's
School.
