Council packet includes resolution expressing intent to join community renewable energy program
Summary
Draft Resolution R2026 would express South Salt Lake’s intent to join the Community Renewable Energy Program when available and cites the Community Clean Energy Act and PSC order that set program rates and opt-out rules.
A draft City Council resolution (R2026) on the May 13 agenda would express South Salt Lake’s intent to join the Community Renewable Energy Program when the program becomes available. The resolution text cites the Community Clean Energy Act and the Interlocal Cooperation Act and references the Utah Public Service Commission’s approval of Rocky Mountain Power’s program and initial rates.
The resolution recites logistical details from the PSC order: a fixed residential rate of $4.00 per month, a volumetric nonresidential rate of $0.00609 per kWh, and a low-income nonresidential surcharge of $0.12 per month. It also states that ratepayers will be automatically enrolled with a six-month opt-out window from the date of the first initial opt-out notice. The draft resolution expresses support for the goal of 100% clean renewable energy and would authorize the city to join the program when available.
The agenda packet shows the resolution text but does not record a council vote in the provided pages. Council Chair Sharla Bynum is shown as the sponsor/introducer in the resolution header.
