Commissioners authorize RFQs for landfill gas utilization and landfill solar projects
Summary
The Board authorized advertising for requests for qualifications for two utilities projects — a solid waste landfill gas utilization project and a landfill solar installation — voting unanimously to proceed with the procurement steps.
The Lake County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved two resolutions from the Department of Utilities to advertise requests for qualifications for energy projects at the county landfill.
The first resolution authorizes advertising for an RFQ to support a landfill gas utilization project. The second resolution authorizes advertising for an RFQ for a landfill solar installation project. Both motions were moved, seconded and approved by roll call.
No substantive discussion or technical details about project budgets, timelines or preferred technologies were provided in the meeting record; the written motions directed utilities staff to proceed with the RFQ advertising and procurement process.
What happens next: Utilities staff will publish the RFQs and collect qualifications from vendors; subsequent meetings or staff reports should provide vendor selection criteria, project budgets and timing.
