REPORT - SONOMA CLEAN POWER UPDATE ON PERFORMANCE AND POSSIBLE SERVICE TO MENDOCINO COUNTY
BACKGROUND: Mendocino County first requested service in 2013. SCPA staff urged delays in considering expansion until all Sonoma County operations were tested and proven. SCPA Board began discussing Mendocino in summer of 2015 and adopted a policy governing the process for expansion in December 2015. Presentations of proposed expansion continued throughout Mendocino County into the first half of 2016.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the City Manager’s Office that the Council, by motion, provide direction to its Sonoma Clean Power Authority (SCPA) Board of Directors appointee as to whether or not to (1) amend the SCPA Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) as proposed, and (2) approve participation by Mendocino County and the cities of Fort Bragg, Willits, and Point Arena.
