Explanation:
On July 29, 2022, the City of Hollywood entered into an Energy Services Agreement with Noresco, LLC to develop a comprehensive energy management plan to improve various City buildings, structures, lighting and facilities. The intent is for these improvements to be financed through guaranteed cost savings achieved through the energy improvement initiatives.
As a result of the recommendations outlined in Audit Work Order No. 1, the City Commission, on May 17, 2023, approved Construction Work Order No. 1 to upgrade approximately 3,000 City-owned streetlights to LED technology. Additionally, on May 17, 2023, the City Commission approved Audit Work Order No. 2, to conduct investment grade audits of various other energy conservation opportunities such as HVAC/mechanical and other building improvements, smart city initiatives, and park exterior lighting and athletic field lighting. During the discussion, the City Commission directed staff to work with Noresco to strengthen contract language pertaining to indemnification and liability in the master Energy Services Agreement. As this amendment would pertain to the master Energy Services Agreement, it would apply to all current and future audit and construction work orders.
Fiscal Impact:
Approval of this resolution will not fiscally impact the City.
