Responsible Dept: Finance
Requested Action: Order Map/Lot: N/A
Authorizing Execution of a Memorandum of Understanding with Efficiency Maine for Assistance with Energy
Smart Bangor
Summary
This order will authorize a Memorandum of Understanding with Efficiency Maine for administrative
oversight of the Energy Smart Bangor program. Efficiency Maine has been providing the
administrative tasks related to Energy Smart Bangor since it began in June of 2016. During the FY
2018 budget process, additional funding was appropriated to continue this program. Energy Smart
Bangor expands upon existing Efficiency Maine programs by providing additional financial incentives
to Bangor homeowners that invest in approved energy reduction strategies. The intent of the
program is to assist individual homeowners in lowering winter heating bills; modernize Bangor's
older housing stock; and decrease Bangor's carbon footprint.
If approved, the Memorandum of Understanding will reflect the additional funds of $100,000 that
were made available for this program and allow Efficiency Maine to continue to provide the
administrative oversight of Bangor's program. Efficiency Maine does not receive any compensation
for performing these duties. This item was reviewed and recommended for approval at the
December 4, 2017 Finance Committee meeting.
