VAIL TOWN COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO

ITEM/TOPIC:   Energy Management System Update

PRESENTER(S):   Mark Hoblitzell, Environmental Sustainability Coordinator

ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:   Staff requests the Vail Town Council consider the service levels of the proposed energy management software system.

BACKGROUND:   With the goal of implementing an efficient energy tracking and emissions reporting system for Town of Vail municipal operations, staff released a Request for Proposals for a qualified firm to provide software services.  

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:   Service Level 1 provides for the in-budget option. However, staff recommends the Vail Town Council consider Service Level 2, which includes real-time data, scalability with the town's finance system, and advanced greenhouse gas emissions reporting compatible with third party platforms.
