Authority authorizes geothermal incentive services and added analysis for Fuller site

Kent County Building Authority · August 12, 2026

Summary

The board approved Catalyst Partners' $5,000 geothermal incentive proposal and a $16,000 added-service request to analyze 50/50 versus 80/30 geothermal configurations to assess up-front costs and long-term benefits.

The Kent County Building Authority unanimously approved two Catalyst Partners items: a $5,000 proposal for geothermal incentive services and a $16,000 added-service request to evaluate system configurations and lifecycle costs. Facilities Project Manager Rich LaBombard said the added analysis will compare a 50/50 geothermal system to an 80/30 system to better understand overall costs and long-term benefits to the county.

Board members approved the incentive services proposal on a motion by Scott Conners and supported by Sean Fitzgerald; Conners moved approval of the added-service request and Robert Myers seconded. The motion record indicates all members present voted in favor of both items.
