This <br /> water conservation plan is implemented throughout the City's water service area. Water conservation audits <br /> and rebates are one program in this plan. The City of Everett,where applicable, will reimburse businesses <br /> for half the cost of certain water saving retrofits and equipment. These reimbursements are budgeted in the <br /> regional water conservation budget. <br /> The City of Everett has received a rebate application from the Everett Travelodge for reimbursement of the <br /> replacement cost of 120 toilets with new low-flow toilets. The $6,600 expenditure listed above is 50%of the <br /> cost of replacement of 120 toilets. The estimated water savings that will occur by replacing these toilets is <br /> 1,643 CCF(hundred cubic feet)of water per year. Based on the savings and the avoided cost criteria in the <br /> Comprehensive Water Plan, these measures would be cost effective for the City. <br /> RECOMMENDATION (Exact action requested of Council): <br /> Authorize the Mayor to sign the Agreement between the City of Everett and the Everett Travelodge for Water <br /> Conservation Audit. <br /> 24 <br />
