AGENDA TITLE: Public Benefits Program Grant — United Congregational Church Comprehensive Energy
Engineered Analysis ($8,075)
MEETING DATE: February 2, 2000
PREPARED BY: Electric Utility Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council approve a Public Benefits Program Grant in the amount
of $8,075 to fund a Comprehensive Energy Engineered Analysis for a
demand-side management project for United Congregational Church.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: United Congregational Church, located at 701 S. Hutchins Street, has elected
to pursue a significant tenant improvement project for the facilities sanctuary,
office/lobby areas, as well as classroom space. Included in the tenant
improvements, is a proposed energy efficiency upgrade project.
The purpose of the Comprehensive Energy Engineered Analysis is to identify 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. The specific energy conservation measures to be included involve
retrofitting the HVAC (heating, cooling & ventilation) system, lighting in both the sanctuary and classrooms, and
strengthening the classroom roofing, by applying state-of-the-art energy efficiency technology.
The Comprehensive Energy Engineered Analysis will be conducted by Energy Masters International, Inc., the City of
Lodi's energy services company, in conjunction with the City of Lodi Electric Utility. The full report is targeted for
delivery to United Congregational Church in mid-March 2000.
Funding for the Comprehensive Energy Engineered Analysis is provided by the City of Lodi Public Benefits Program.
After numerous site visits and discussions with representatives of United Congregational Church, the City of Lodi
Electric Utility respectfully recommends approval of this funding request as a qualifying component of the Public
Benefits Program.
