Whereas, the Bristol Bay Borough School District has made energy savings a priority of
the district, and in recent years has completed a number of projects to ensure we stay
focused on that important task, and
Whereas, the Board has committed to preserving more of our general fund for classroom
instruction and student support, and less for maintenance and operations, and
Whereas, there are many examples of what we have done to move on these critical costs
including a 2009 library remodel, a 2010 retrofit of our old gym lights and made other
upgrades to that facility to help modernize older, less efficient systems. In 2012 we
replaced our front doors, and we have conducted an investment grade audit of the facility
that will help us continue these improvements, and
Whereas, in the past year we have made plans to renovate our shop and kitchen areas, and
we have been awarded funding by the State Legislature to help accomplish that task.
There is no doubt that our district efforts could be helped significantly by other resources
from the Alaska Energy Authority, and
Whereas, we are hoping that the district will be awarded funding from the Renewable
Energy Fund to continue on these efforts
Be it therefore resolved that the Bristol Bay Borough Board of Education thinks our
district is ready to work with AEA on energy projects and appreciate your consideration
of our 2013 application.
Be it further resolved that we will make a full commitment to those items necessary,
should we believe that the Renewable Energy Fund can help us complete the prioritized
tasks of the district over the next few years.
Signed this 9th day of October, 2012.
