Alternative Fuels Cover Letter <br /> April 17,2012 <br /> Page 2 <br /> $350,000 Energy Efficiency & Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) award resulting in <br /> a projected savings of$73,408 annually in energy costs. <br /> We have placed in the Office of the City Clerk 17-page U.S. Department of Energy's <br /> January 2012 Clean Cities Alternative Fuel Price Report. <br /> Because of the sheer volume of pages, we have also placed in the Office of the City <br /> Clerk extensive materials on how compressed natural gas is being used in the Leon <br /> County Schools in Florida; CNG facilities in Tallahassee; articles on how Ryder and <br /> Staples are using CNG tractors for their inventory transportation; how Sacramento <br /> purchased 53 LNG refuse trucks which are designed to "achieve a 98 percent reduction <br /> in particulate matter and a 99 percent reduction in nitrogen oxide emissions" which <br /> replaced thief "old, inefficient diesel-burning vehicles"; how AT & T's 10 year <br /> commitment to a "cleaner corporate fleet" has resulted in their 3,000'h CNG vehicle <br /> and their 4,00th ATV vehicle in their corporate vehicle fleet just to name a few. <br /> Council Member Henry Davis, Jr. had the opportunity to discuss this proposed <br /> ordinance with the City's Energy Director John Burke before filing this proposed <br /> ordinance. We look forward to discussing this with you. Thank you. <br /> Most sincerely, <br /> Council Me r e Davis, Jr. <br /> 2"d c o nc' ember <br /> au 1 M er Oliver J.
