Member Spencer indicated that now the City has some new and large developments <br />going on, are they targeting them with some of this information as individuals or as <br />small businesses, multi -family homes, apartments. <br />Mr. Johnson indicated as of right now with the new buildings and redevelopment, <br />the City has not been focusing a lot on those buildings because they are brand new <br />and will be focused on being as efficient as possible. The City is looking for a little <br />bit more at the older stock, the commercial districts which have been focused on <br />more than the new buildings that have gone up. <br />Chair Wozniak asked how the Commission can help and who they are connected <br />with. <br />Ms. Gunderzik indicated the Commission could write the information down and <br />give them to her or City Staff and she will make a spreadsheet. She noted they <br />would also like to stay in communication with the Commission. <br />Mr. Johnson indicated he was open to all communications from the Commission <br />regarding information on organizations that might benefit from this program. <br />Chair Wozniak indicated the Rice Larpenteur Coalition might be worth contacting <br />and would be interested in the energy bourdon issue. He also wondered if the flier <br />will be available in several languages. <br />Ms. Gunderzik indicated the flier will be translated into Spanish and they can talk <br />about other languages that will beneficial as well. <br />Mr. Culver thought the City might have resources as well for converting the flier <br />into Mung, Koran, Somali as well as other languages. He indicated the City Police <br />Department has some resources in working with that type of thing. <br />Chair Wozniak indicated he did some exploring when he was considering this topic <br />and he was getting down the renewable connect rabbit hole online. He explained <br />he has not seen anything like that before but is a way to sign up for community <br />solar gardens and he was very interested in that. He noted that there are only two <br />subscription holder in Ramsey County and neither of them are offering any <br />subscriptions. He wondered if this had to be in Ramsey County, could it be out of <br />state and how easy it is. He indicated he has been running into roadblocks and was <br />a little confused by that. <br />Ms. Gunderzik thought what Chair Wozniak was looking at was their Solar <br />Rewards Community and a person can apply with the actual developer of a solar <br />garden. It can be within the County lived in or any County adjacent to it. She noted <br />they do have a renewable connect program also. <br />Chair Wozniak thanked Ms. Week and Ms. Gunderzik for the presentation. <br />6.
