<br />CEC 1/09/06 <br /> <br />CWL, RB, TE, SS, BH <br />Burnell, Kanter, Eph Weiss <br /> <br />Discussion of Eph Weiss' proposed warrant article establishing an <br />energy committee. <br /> <br />CWL: Why not use the BoS's energy committee: <br /> <br />EW: There was one in the 70's, but it got lost when energy prices went <br />down. <br /> <br />EW: Questions why school HVAC recommendations have been ignored. <br />Finances are addressed by AC and CEC, but energy is addressed by no <br />one. <br /> <br />RB: How would issues be raised? <br /> <br />EW: There's an audit part to this. <br /> <br />TE: Should we just hire an energy consultant to "blitz" the town? <br /> <br />EW: We don't do that with our finances. <br /> <br />DK: We do when we sell bonds. We would be bringing a third, voice to <br />the table. <br /> <br />EW: Real feeling is that BoS's energy committee is ineffective. <br /> <br />SS: How does "Green Building" policy fit into this? <br /> <br />EW: Unclear. <br /> <br />DK: Many of the problems will not be fixed by another standing <br />committee. <br /> <br />EW: Asks how to make this better. <br /> <br />RB: Have a standing energy policy. <br /> <br />GB: Could (alternatively) EPh compell the BoS to establish an energy <br />policy? <br /> <br />RB: Recommends an energy manager. <br /> <br /> <br />
