Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
On October 25, 2016, the Board of Supervisors introduced an ordinance authorizing the implementation of a Community Choice Aggregation program, also referred to as Community Choice Energy (CCE), through the Valley Clean Energy Alliance Joint Powers Authority to provide businesses and residents within unincorporated Yolo County and the City of Davis with a choice of power providers. Public comment in support was received and now staff recommends that the Board waive the second reading and adopt the ordinance (Attachment A). |
