    Withdrawal from Carbon Free Power Project (Resolution #2020-56)

    Approved · 5-0

    Power Director Joel Eves said the city should consider withdrawing from the power sales contract and JUMP allocation because of project risk, a lack of other subscribers and ongoing contract negotiations; Logan City had recently withdrawn. The council said it was disappointed because it had been excited about the project but found the risks too concerning. Mr. Eves said the city might participate later with less risk.

    Moved by Council Member Southwick, seconded by Council Member Condie. Vote: Unanimous, 5-0
