Title
Consideration of and action on a resolution authorizing signatory authority to execute a contract through the H-GAC Energy Purchasing Corporation.
Body
Summary:
For many years, the City has utilized the H-GAC Energy Purchasing Corporation when purchasing its future electricity contracts. Typically, these are purchased many years in advance. When a purchase is to occur, authorized City representatives must act quickly to make the point of sale on the day of pricing. For the past 12 years, the City’s authorized representatives were City Manager James Stokes and Assistant City Manager Gary Jackson. With the retirement of Mr. Jackson and hiring of Ms. Sara Robinson as our new Assistant City Manager, it is necessary for Council to adopt this Resolution. It grants signatory authority for James Stokes and Sara Robinson to make electricity purchases on behalf of the City of Deer Park.
