The total cost <br />for the Energy Services Contract is $4,994,884, with a majority of the funding earmarked and <br />previously approved by the City Council to be appropriated from the City’s American Rescue <br />Plan Act funds. Prior to the onset of the pandemic, the City received notification from the <br />California Energy Commission (CEC) for approval to enter into its 1% loan program to cover a <br />portion of this project’s costs. Due to the pandemic, formal action by the City Council to accept <br />the CEC loan was put aside. Staff is currently working to finalize a new loan agreement in the <br />amount of $1,284,140, which will be brought to Council for consideration in early 2022. The last <br />portion of proposed project funding, at $395,828, will be from the Building Maintenance Fund. <br />BACKGROUND <br />In December 2009 the City adopted a Climate Action Plan (CAP), with a vision to guide San <br />Leandro towards a sustainable future that reduces greenhouse gas emissions from current levels, <br />while promoting economic prosperity for present and future generations. That document was <br />updated and adopted by the City Council in July of this year. <br />Page 1 City of San Leandro Printed on 12/9/2021 <br />19
