Thanks for the info Jay,

This is exactly why we need to look at alternative energy resources for our valley in the future.

Press-Release-Feruary 7, 2008


   
Dennis Spisak, Independent Green Candidate for State Representative of the 60th District, called today for the state legistlature to introduce a set of proposals designed to help improve energy efficiency through conservation.

"As a Board of Education member, I have seen our school district's electricity costs rise over $200,000 in just three years." said Spisak. "It's time for the state legislature to introduce a legistlative package that would include a series of tax incentives, rebates and other measures to provide assistance to individuals who pursue energy conserving practices.


"We need a bill that would also set up renewable energy procurement goals for state agencies and financial assistance to the poor to help them buy products that reduce their energy consumption." said Spisak. 

Tax deductions, private donations, grants, and settlements from lawsuits would pay for the energy upgrade relief outlined in the plan.
