Ely adopts Energy Action Plan


The Arrowhead Regional Development Commission recently completed an innovative pilot project with the City of Ely for the development of an Energy Action Plan.  On November 16th the Ely City Council voted to adopt the plan as an official addendum to the City's existing comprehensive plan.  

The Energy Action Plan gives the City of Ely a clear direction for progress in their community.  ARDC welcomes discussion with those who may be considering replication of this planning effort in their own community. Please share this information with others who may be interested. 

An official update can be found at  http://www.cleanenergyresourceteams.org/files/12-03-10_ElyEnergyActionPlan_Release.pdf, and a case study summarizing the Ely project's progress can be found here  http://www.cleanenergyresourceteams.org/files/ElyEnergyActionPlan_CaseStudy_2010.pdf.
