Project Conserve & River's Edge Partnership Plan <br />~... <br />Basic Information: Project Conserve is a conservation program from Elk River Municipal Utilities and the <br />City of Elk River. Phase III of the program is set to debut this fall. For the first time, business owners, <br />apartment dwellers, and organizations can participate, joining homeowners. Those who sign up will be <br />able to take advantage of workshops, conservation tools, consultations, and energy audits. Using these <br />offers, participants will learn how to easily and effectively conserve energy, lower energy costs, reduce <br />waste, and conserve precious natural resources. <br />Summary: Project Conserve is intended as a community-wide effort. To accomplish this, we want to <br />partner with as many businesses, community groups, and citizens as possible. The River's Edge <br />Downtown Business Association represents a vital part of the Elk River Community, and we believe that <br />a partnership between Project Conserve and River's Edge would be mutually beneficial and would <br />greatly contribute to the program's success. <br />The Plan: Your businesses would join Project Conserve as "PC partners." Each business would <br />haveprogram-supplied signage in their establishment with information about Project Conserve and how <br />to sign up. They could also offer their choice of discount or deal to all citizens who sign up for Project <br />Conserve. Citizen participants would be able to claim their discounts with a Project Conserve "member <br />card" (supplied by the program). <br />In return, your businesses would be recognized as "PC partners" in all advertising, on the Project <br />Conserve website, in all presentations, and in newsletters. In addition, as members of Project Conserve, <br />you will also be able to take advantage of program benefits, including free energy efficiency <br />walkthroughs by certified auditors. <br />How it would work:The Project Conserve "member card" will be issued to all past (phase I), present <br />(phase II), and future (phase III) participants. Phase I & II participants will receive their cards at the final <br />workshop of phase II in late August. Phase III participants will receive their card at the first phase <br />
