CABARRUS COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />REGULAR MEETING <br />APRIL 20, 2015 <br />6:30 P.M. <br />AGENDA CATEGORY: <br />Consent Agenda <br />SUBJECT: <br />Planning and Development - Duke Weatherization Program <br />BRIEF SUMMARY: <br />Duke Energy is offering a new program that is available to the Cabarrus <br />County Weatherization program through the North Carolina Community <br />Action Association. The Duke Energy Weatherization Program provides <br />reimbursement on work completed under the federally funded <br />weatherization program. The state monitoring agency, the North Carolina <br />Department of Environment and Natural Resources, is allowing this <br />reimbursement on the condition that the Duke reimbursement funds are <br />placed back into the Weatherization program to expand services. <br />This program will allow staff to provide additional funds to the health and <br />safety portion of the program which is underfunded by the state program. <br />Duke Energy is funding the program and there is no match required to <br />participate. Duke Energy and the North Carolina Community Action <br />Association have provided Cabarrus County with an agreement to <br />participate in the program. The agreement is attached for your review. <br />REQUESTED ACTION: <br />Motion to approve Cabarrus County's participation in the Duke Energy <br />Weatherization Program and authorize staff to enter into the agreement <br />with Duke Energy and the North Carolina Community Action Association. <br />EXPECTED LENGTH OF PRESENTATION: <br />SUBMITTED BY: <br />Kelly Sifford, Planning and Development Director, AICP <br />F -9 Page 101 <br />
