  2. Public Safety Building Energy audit reveals shortcomings in the construction and configuration leading to energy waste.  More Detail
  3. Winter-related costs will be $45,000 to $60,000 above budget.  It appears that, rather than reducing the paving budget to compensate, other surplus areas will be reallocated to address the shortfall, rather than returned to taxpayers as in past years. More Detail
