District 742 Reviewing Energy Saving Plan
ST. CLOUD - The St. Cloud Area School Board is expected to approve a plan tonight (Thursday) to make their buildings more energy efficient.
They plan to replace light bulbs, install low-flow plumbing fixtures, and button up the outside of buildings.
The $1.6 million project would be paid for by using what's called a performance lease. The district would be allowed to complete the projects, then use the savings to repay the loan.
The district is expected to save about $193,000 a year.
