Board creates Clean Energy Advisory Committee, praises community and student involvement
Summary
The Green Bay Area Public School District Board voted to approve a Clean Energy Advisory Committee proposal, acknowledging substantial community and student participation in the proposal development.
The Green Bay Area Public School District Board of Education approved the creation of a Clean Energy Advisory Committee after board members praised the volunteer work that shaped the proposal.
Board member Brian said he was "very excited" about the proposal and praised community and student involvement. "I thought it was a great proposal...the amount of work and time that community members have brought forward to this, including students and members within the city," Brian said.
Board member Bridal (first-name basis in the transcript) also applauded the community effort and noted the district's leadership role on the issue. "I think it shows our district as leading in this and, we should be leading in this," Bridal said. The board approved the Clean Energy Advisory Committee proposal with all members voting in favor.
Board members noted the city is doing parallel clean-energy and efficiency programming and that district and city efforts may complement each other. One board member mentioned a public meeting at the district library scheduled the following day.
The motion creates a standing advisory body to advise the district on clean energy and efficiency measures; the transcript does not record staffing, budget or an implementation timeline for committee activities.
