Discussion
The Cooperative offers Cooperative Owned Area Lighting as outlined in its Tariff and Business Rules for outdoor lighting assets for facilities owned by the Cooperative or a Member. The Cooperative charges a delivery charge based on lamp size, type, base power, and transmission cost of service charges. Currently, PEC utilizes internal and contract labor to install lighting assets and perform maintenance on these assets including replacements. Additionally, PEC stocks lighting assets in the district warehouses to ensure availability of adequate replacements when needed.
The Cooperative proposes to retain a specialized third-party to facilitate all aspects of its Cooperative Owned Area Lighting including procurement, installation, maintenance, and replacement of the lighting assets. The Cooperative will maintain the billing for PEC Members, as well as, be the point of contact for Members regarding any inquiries about lighting services including outage reporting.
Body
now, therefore, be it RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF PEDERNALES ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, INC. that the Cooperative authorizes the Chief Executive Officer, or designee, to execute a Lighting Services Agreement within the limits of the Delegation of Authority as discussed in Executive Session; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COOPERATIVE, that the Chief Executive Officer, or designee, is hereby authorized to take such other actions as needed to implement this resolution.
