Steinman, Director of Economic <br />Development <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />August 22, 1997 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Energy City Presentation, 8~25~97 <br /> <br />The purpose of the joint meeting of the Council, HRA, EDA, and Planning <br />Commission is to hear an Energy City Presentation regarding the various <br />activities which have been undertaken through this program over the past <br />six months. It will also provide an opportunity for those who are members of <br />the Energy City Steering Committee (ACE) to be introduced to the various <br />committee members of the city. <br /> <br />There has been a substantial amount of activity that ACE has undertaken <br />over the past six months. These activities are primarily associated with the <br />Demonstration Committee and the Marketing Committee. These activities <br />include development of a marketing plan, construction of an energy home, <br />possible construction of a wind generator and landfill gas extraction, and <br />demonstration of a solar wall technology. ACE has also undertaken a <br />significant amount of discussion regarding the issues involved in wind <br />generation and the possibility of using wind generation as a vehicle to <br />market and promote Energy City. This issue will be discussed in detail at <br />the joint meeting. <br /> <br />This meeting should provide an excellent opportunity for city committee <br />members, including the Mayor and City Council, to address specific questions <br />regarding the details of the Energy City program to ACE. <br /> <br />If you have any questions prior to this meeting, please feel free to contact <br />either Steve Rohlf or Paul Steinman at City Hall at 441-7420. <br /> <br />\\elkriver\syskshrdoc\eda\sustcty\acejntmm.doc <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
