The 2013 -2014 SCG Local Government Partnerships are designed to provide integrated technical and financial assistance to help local governments effectively lead their communities to increase energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, protect air quality and ensure that their communities are more livable and sustainable. The Program provides performance -based opportunities for the City to demonstrate energy efficiency leadership in its communities through energy saving actions, including retrofitting its municipal facilities, as well as providing opportunities for constituents to take action in their homes and businesses. By implementing measures in its own facilities, the City will lead by example as the City and the Utility work together to increase community awareness of energy efficiency and position the City as leaders in energy management practices. The Program will provide marketing, outreach, education, training and community sweeps to connect the communities with opportunities to save energy, money and help the environment. The Program Participants will leverage the strengths of each other to efficiently deliver energy and demand savings. This partnership will allow the City to deliver sustainable energy savings, promote energy efficient lifestyles, and develop an enduring leadership role for the City through its relationships with other Program Participants, its constituents, and the Utility. 2013 -14 Santa Ana Partnership Agreemen�5^_c 3
