RESOLUTION APPROVING CONTRACT FOR PURCHASE OF SERVICES
FROM DIRECTOR OF SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAM
FOR THE CITY OF AMES
WHEREAS, since the time the City Council authorized the signing of the Mayor's Climate
Protection Agreement, City staff has been working very hard to develop and implement strategies
that will reduce carbon emissions associated with our operations,City buildings, and the City fleet;
and,
WHEREAS, over time, it became apparent that there was no coordinated effort being
conducted in the community to focus on carbon emission reductions; and,
WHEREAS, in order to resolve this situation, the City Council included direction in its
current list of goals to explore the possibility of sharing the ISU Sustainability Coordinator position;
and,
WHEREAS,it is the Council's belief that rather than Iowa State University and the City each
hiring its own sustainability expert, a sharing of this resource will save both organizations money.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ames, Iowa,
that the contract with Iowa State University for purchase of services from the Director of
Sustainability Program is hereby approved.
ADOPTED THIS 22nd day of June, 2010.
