SUBJECT:
Adopt Appropriation Ordinance Increasing the Estimated Receipts and Appropriations in the Special Trust
Fund by $455,092.63 to Provide Funding for the City's Energy Savings Performance Contract with Johnson
Controls, Inc.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing the
estimated receipts and appropriations in the Special Trust Fund by $455,092.63.
DISCUSSION:
In June 2009, M&C C-23554 authorized application for and acceptance of a federal Energy Efficiency and
Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) award. Since the $6.7M grant was awarded in September 2009
(CSC No. 39311), City staff has been working with Johnson Controls Inc., (JCI) and the federal
Department of Energy (DOE) to develop two Energy Savings Performance Contract (ESPC)
amendments: Phase VI-a for Water Fund facilities, and Phase VI-b for General Fund facilities. ESPC
Amendment 7 for Phase VI-b is largely funded through the federal EECBG award, but also requires
appropriation of additional incentive funds received from ONCOR Electric Delivery (ONCOR) for previous
energy conservation projects.
ONCOR promotes a commercial Standard Offer Program (SOP), providing incentives to Service Providers
who install approved Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EE/RE) in government and other facilities
in their service area. The City has successfully participated in ONCOR's SOP, receiving incentives either
directly from ONCOR orthrough aCity-contracted Energy Services Company (ESCo). A Conservation
Reserve Account was established within the City's Special Trust Fund to receive any utility incentives
secured through implementing Energy Conservation Program projects. In the course of implementing two
program projects, ESPC Phase III (M&C C-21737) and LED Traffic Signals (M&C C-22063), utility
incentives totaling $455,092.63 were subsequently received by the City and deposited into the Special
Trust Fund account.
ESPC Amendment 7 is included as a separate M&C on today's agenda. This appropriation ordinance
must be approved prior to the approval of ESPC Amendment 7 to make the funds available for award.
FISCAL INFORMATION /CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon adoption of the attached appropriation
ordinance, funds will be available in the current capital budget, as appropriated, of the Special Trust
Fund.
