� - -inl-�nthgn Utility Rebates and Grants Johnson � 1 Controls Johnson Control has taken special care to consider utility rebate programs in system design. All modifications were designed to maximize applicable rebates thus reducing both the upfront and lifecycle costs. Similarly, Johnson Control acts as a liaison working with state and federal agencies to secure grants that may apply to the project. Operational Savings/ Budeeted Capital We were also able to identify potential opportunities that will avoid operating expenses for the City of St. Anthony. This report has been generated through statistical data, a survey of City operations and discussions with building personnel. Based on this information, savings will be approximately $20K/year depending on selected projects due to improved maintenance management and reduced repair expenses. This does not include any planned capital dollars that have been earmarked to address any of the identified projects. Besides energy savings, the following facility improvement measures have the potential to generate operational savings in repair, maintenance, labor and/or capital budgets: 1. By upgrading old HVAC equipment to new, high - efficiency technology, repairs will be reduced, operations will be improved, and future costs will be avoided. Maintenance personnel will be able to operate their facilities in a proactive manner rather than reacting to day -to -day emergencies. 2. Facility and exterior lighting efficiency can be improved by standardization on more efficient lighting systems. Operations and maintenance costs will be substantially reduced due to the extended life expectancy of the new lighting system. 3. The lack of controls on major HVAC equipment can generate substantial operational savings. When a building is not fully controlled, equipment life is reduced, maintenance personnel need extra time to troubleshoot and react, and there can be occupancy and productivity issues. 4. By upgrading the fire alarm system at the City Hall, operational dollars will be reduced due to fewer parts needing to be replaced. This will eliminate false alarm calls at the liquor store. 5. By upgrading the water process controls, this will allow the city to eliminate the existing leased phone lines from the water treatment building to the well houses. Currently, this item is not included in the $2.6M project.
