City Council Meeting Minutes November 5, 2012 Page 12 of 14 Council member Jasiak noted Facility Manager Szabados supports the energy audit. She explained as Liaison to the Sustainability Board, she did not know how to bring this request to the City Council's attention. She felt the audit would be beneficial to the City and voiced her respect for the staff members who support the audit. Council member Yarnell requested clarification on the motion. Mayor Muckle explained the motion is to remove the UC Denver Energy Assessment from the 2013 budget. A yes vote would remove the energy audit from the budget. Mayor Pro Tem Dalton stated his motion was not in any way intended to denigrate the work of the Sustainability Board or the work David Szabados does for the City. He explained this is solely a budget matter and stated this money could be applied to items already in the budget. Mayor Muckle stated the energy audit would be consistent with the Council's goal of sustainability. He noted this audit would be at a low one-time cost and putting it off would cost the City much more money. PUBLIC COMMENT Janet Somerville, 490 Lincoln Court, Louisville, CO stated a question of this study was not included in the citizen survey. She and her neighbors are in favor of the study. She urged Council to take the opportunity to help the citizens reduce their carbon footprint.
