BACKGROUND (Consistency with Adopted Plans and Policies, if applicable)
The Energy and Conservation Commission (ECC) was formed in September of 2019. The ECC is made up of 7 commission members (Billings residents) and 2 staff liaisons.
The purpose of the ECC is to consider ways to conserve energy and water, and reduce waste and pollution. This includes making recommendations where the City can reduce the amount of money it spends on resources and ways to limit the City’s impact on the environment.
The ECC is giving its semi-annual presentation to the City Council. Topics for the presentation will include a progress update on a framework for energy and resource conservation as well as recommendations.
