FILE NUMBER
Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute an amendment to the agreement
with Edward K. Aghjayan, subject to nonsubstantive changes approved by the City Manager and
City Attorney, for energy consulting services, in an amount not to exceed $75,000.
DISCUSSION
This recommended action will allow the City to continue to benefit from opportunities for energy
efficiency and the resulting cost reductions. Since 2008, the City has participated in an Energy
Leader Partnership (Partnership) with Southern California Edison to bring energy efficiency
programs to Santa Ana residents, businesses, and City facilities. The current Partnership cycle
continues through 2014 and a future cycle beyond 2014 is in development. Edward K. Aghjayan,
an energy consultant with experience in managing several energy programs, has been valuable
in identifying partnership opportunities and community programs, including the development of
energy efficiency kits delivered to 75,000 single-family, multifamily, and mobile home residences;
implementation of the Small Business Direct Install Program provided to 198 businesses in the
Federal Empowerment Zone; and delivery of the Nonresidential Direct Install Program to over
3,200 businesses.
In January 2012, the City Council approved a $35,000 agreement that provided for Mr.
Aghjayan's services to the Partnership and in support of other Public Works Agency energy and
sustainability projects through June 30, 2013. Staff recommends approval of an amendment to
this agreement to allow for continued assistance in the development and implementation of
energy efficiency programs and to address various energy-related issues. The amendment
extends the term to June 30, 2016, and increases the total compensation to $110,000.
