Commissioners agree to study on utility efficiency improvements
Waxahachie Daily Light
Ellis County commissioners got the ball rolling on a facility improvement project that is “budget-neutral” during Tuesday’s regular meeting at the Ellis County Historic Courthouse.
Commissioners agreed to an Investment Grade Audit agreement with the McKinstry firm to do a detailed analysis of the county’s utility expenses and recommend upgrades that would eventually pay for themselves. The cost of the audit is $50,000, but this amount will be paid only if the county does not go forward with the recommendations. The audit will take about three months to complete and will be evaluated by an independent third party.
