Agenda Item 3.g: AECOM to design, construct, and deliver 719kw solar photovoltaic facility at the Wastewater Treatment Plant: http://www.ci.beaumont.ca.us/DocumentCenter/View/19634
This Agenda Item is a $2,682,463 contract for AECOM to submit a ‘Milestone Report’. The Agenda states that the contract was awarded to AECOM at the August 19, 2014 Council Meeting, but Agenda Item 7.a.10 states that Utility Partners was awarded the contract and AECOM didn’t even apply: http://www.ci.beaumont.ca.us/DocumentCenter/View/19106
The City states they expect to receive $610,410 from PG&E’s California Solar Incentive Program, but the PG&E website states there is limited funding and all applications are being put on a wait list with no guarantee of acceptance.
