We might also be able to <br />harvest energy from wastewater (see article in today's—or yesterday's—Star Trib), and/or other technologies <br />that are evolving now (converting garbage to transportation fuel) and who knows what's down the road? <br />2. Local generation of renewable energy is only as important as we and our leaders want it to be. We were out in <br />front once, back when we installed geothermal for our ice cooling system, and are still reaping those savings. <br />Taking similar risks, say into some kind of district energy system, might attract some specific businesses and <br />residents looking for forward -looking -and -thinking civic and citizen leaders. Meeting statewide goals is a noble <br />goal, but we will need to compete with other cities that are right now making a stronger commitment to <br />sustainability and smart growth. <br />Joe <br />Sent from Mail for Windows 10 <br />From: Becky Alexander <becky.alexander@lhbcorp.com> <br />Sent: Friday, January 5, 2018 2:03:38 PM <br />To: joesvillemn@hotmail.com; sten1003@umn.edu; jhfelice@gmail.com; Nate.Arthur@co.washington.mn.us <br />Cc: Bryan Lloyd; Marc Culver; Kari Collins; Ryan Johnson; Thomas Paschke <br />Subject: RE: Comp Plan policies, strategies <br />Joe, Dwayne, Nate, and Joan, <br />Thanks for your input on Roseville's 2040 Comp Plan goals. The group cc:ed here is currently finalizing a draft of <br />Roseville's Resilience and Environmental Protection chapter. The intent of the five main Goals from your document align <br />well with the goals we have presented to the Planning Commission, but have several key differences, so I wanted to ask <br />you a couple follow-up questions regarding renewable energy. <br />
