I can probably make the morning of 7.25 work, but might be out of cell service in the Eastern Sierras by late
7/25 and all day 7/26. This is a priority for us, though, so let me know what works, and I’ll do my best to attend
and contribute.

Hello Tiffany, Michelle, and Chris ‐
Thanks again for your input during the June Energy Programs Workshop. Tierra Resources, together with staff,
have taken your feedback, along with an analysis of the data from the four counties, to draft an energy
program roadmap. We still have work to do prior to the first Community Advisory Council review later in
August, but would really appreciate the opportunity to discuss the draft with you. Do you have time this
Thursday or Friday to discuss? I think there’s benefit to having a discussion with all of you together, but if
that’s not possible, we can meet with each of you individually.
If your time allows, will you please let me know your availability for about 1.5 hours on Thursday, July 25th
and/or July 26th?
Many thanks!

Good morning, Stacy –
I wanted to follow‐up on the below email to ensure we have a 2nd testing scheduled/completed prior to our August 14
Operations Board of Directors meeting. Can you let me know if your team is available week of July 29 or August 5? I
think everyone will be back from vacation by then, correct?
I’ve cc’d Nancy Weitzel to let us know availability of the board room and conference room(s). Also, if there’s any update
on installation of the sound proofing in the CAO’s conference room. I think it that’s done prior to August 14, Nancy said
that we could hold the meeting in the CAO conference room.
Let me know at your earliest convenience. Thanks, much!

I hope this email finds you well. Thank you all for taking time out of your busy days to assist with board meeting testing
yesterday. David was able to mitigate a small issue yesterday, and he and I tested again this morning and all seems to be
running well. We’d like to do one more mock meeting test in the next 2‐3 weeks.
I know Maitreya and David will be out of the office next week so I’m inquiring about everyone’s availability to meet at
some point during the week of either July 22 or July 29? Once we determine the week that everyone is available I can
send out a Doodle Poll to determine a date for the meeting. Thank you in advance for your expedited response to this

Hi Brandon,
Per previous email, I’m writing to let you know of your requirement to file a Form 700 and AB1234 Ethics Training
Certificate with me. Please keep in mind that you will not be official appointed until you are approved by the Policy
Board on June 5; your Form 700 and Ethics Training certificate should be completed after this date but before your June
20 CAC meeting. Prior to attending your June 20 CAC meeting I’ll also need to give you an oath of office so that you can
begin participating in meetings.
For your Form 700 filing, please log into the eDisclosure website and use your email address (brandono@live.com) as
your Username. You should have also received a couple of emails from “MBCP Form 700 Filings” letting you know of this
requirement. One of the emails should include a temporary password. If for some reason you did not receive that email
(please also check your SPAM or Junk email boxes) you can click on the “Forgot Password?” link under the login section
in the upper left hand corner of the eDisclosure website to have the temporary password re‐sent. You’ll then have an
opportunity to replace that temporary password with a unique password that you can establish yourself.
For your AB1234 Ethics Training certificate. Please go to the FPPC website training, create an account and take your
training. AB1234 Ethics Training requires that you complete a full 2‐hours of training. Unfortunately the FPPC website
training does not monitor your time online so you’ll need to keep track. Most people can get through the training in
about 35‐45 minutes so take your time while answering the questions. If I receive a certificate from you with under 2
hours of training I’ll ask that you provide me with a supplemental training certificate for the remainder of the time.
Feel free to contact me should you have questions or need any assistance with filing your Form 700 or taking your Ethics
Training.
Great to have you onboard and looking forward to meeting you soon.

Subject: FW: The Central Coast is slowly unifying
HI All,
I always appreciate Mr. Habashi’s brevity, but also want to take a moment to underscore what big news this
email represents – that MBCP ostensibly has the entire Central Coast region moving forward with just a few
notable exceptions. It’s exciting and of significant consequence for our region and the State.
At the same time, it seems that discussions at the Operations and Policy Board and Community Advisory
Council around the long-term strategy for expansion and for an effective and functional governance structure in
a region of this size with so many member agencies remains nascent. I would anticipate that there are
significant and important opportunities to express our policy preferences in this context at the next Operations
and Policy Board meetings (8/14 and 9/4, respectively). We should strongly consider attending in person and
fully participating, if possible.
Also, it is critical with all of the new jurisdictions coming on board and the accompanying excitement and
associated MBCP work effort that we ensure that MBCP staff are adequately resourcing and attending to the
SLO and Morro Bay enrollment process coming up in a few months.
City of SLO staff together with Eric Veium and our CivicSpark Fellows are working on a written policy platform
for our group’s consideration very shortly. We are also participating in regular update calls on the enrollment
process. So, at this moment, I just want to re-iterate that it is an especially important time to engage and keep
“eyes on the prize”!
Respectfully,
Bob

Subject: The Central Coast is slowly unifying
Boards and Council members
During the last 2 months, several cities, namely Del Rey Oaks (Monterey), Paso Robles, Arroyo Grande, Pismo Beach and
Grover Beach (San Luis Obispo), approved resolution requesting to join MBCP.
Yesterday, in the early afternoon, the county of Santa Barbara also approved a resolution requesting membership in
MBCP. At night, the city of Goleta Council directed staff to return on August 13 with similar recommendations. Santa
Barbara county’s decision prompted other cities in the county to reconsider earlier plans and we are hearing that the
Cities of Santa Barbara, Carpentaria, Santa Maria and Guadalupe may also consider similar moves. We will seek the
Operations Board and the Community Advisory Council’s guidance in August and the Policy Board’s approval in
September and possibly December of these requests.

Subject:FW: The Central Coast is slowly unifying
HI All,
I always appreciate Mr. Habashi’s brevity, but also want to take a moment to underscore what big news this
email represents – that MBCP ostensibly has the entire Central Coast region moving forward with just a few
notable exceptions. It’s exciting and of significant consequence for our region and the State.
At the same time, it seems that discussions at the Operations and Policy Board and Community Advisory
Council around the long-term strategy for expansion and for an effective and functional governance structure in
a region of this size with so many member agencies remains nascent. I would anticipate that there are
significant and important opportunities to express our policy preferences in this context at the next Operations
and Policy Board meetings (8/14 and 9/4, respectively). We should strongly consider attending in person and
fully participating, if possible.
Also, it is critical with all of the new jurisdictions coming on board and the accompanying excitement and
associated MBCP work effort that we ensure that MBCP staff are adequately resourcing and attending to the
SLO and Morro Bay enrollment process coming up in a few months.
City of SLO staff together with Eric Veium and our CivicSpark Fellows are working on a written policy platform
for our group’s consideration very shortly. We are also participating in regular update calls on the enrollment
process. So, at this moment, I just want to re-iterate that it is an especially important time to engage and keep
“eyes on the prize”!
Respectfully,
Bob

Good morning, All!
I hope this email finds you well. Thank you all for taking time out of your busy days to assist with board meeting testing
yesterday. David was able to mitigate a small issue yesterday, and he and I tested again this morning and all seems to be
running well. We’d like to do one more mock meeting test in the next 2‐3 weeks.
I know Maitreya and David will be out of the office next week so I’m inquiring about everyone’s availability to meet at
some point during the week of either July 22 or July 29? Once we determine the week that everyone is available I can
send out a Doodle Poll to determine a date for the meeting. Thank you in advance for your expedited response to this
email. Happy Friday!

Hi Chris,
I hope you are doing well. I’m writing to inquire about your availability for a meeting tomorrow at
3:00pm. I’m working with the County of Santa Cruz to move the Operations Board remote location to a
site in their building. I’d like to test the County and SLO sites together if possible. If you’re not available,
not a problem, we can set another date/time.
Also, I was curious if you all had static issues when WebEx’ing with Santa Cruz as well as when you were
solo for Police Board meetings? Thanks!

As the Legislative Session draws to a close, many of you may be receiving “Action Alerts” or requests for comment from
various organizations seeking to have you take a position on one of the many bills still working their way through the
Assembly or Senate.
To the extent you wish to submit a letter or comment in your capacity as a MBCP representative, please work with
either Rob Shaw or myself to help craft (or re‐craft) the message to include the MBPC’s stance on these items.

hope to leverage with SLOAPCD. As far as our programs budget is laid out, we set aside a percentage of our annual
revenue towards energy programs which focus on transportation electrification, building electrification and distributed
energy resources. We are currently exploring ways to support various programs for our FY 19/20 during our budget
process which starts next month at our Community Advisory Council meeting. Our principle EV infrastructure program is
56
with CEC and the CALeVIP program which MBCP is contributing $1 million of our program funds and the CEC is
contributing $6 million. We are also looking at ways to support MBARD’s work around school bus electrification, fleet
electrification and potentially public agency EV infrastructure opportunities.
Are you leveraging similar funds that MBARD in terms of ev infrastructure and school bus electrification?
Thanks and let’s try and find a time to discuss in the next few weeks.
Best,

Beth and J.R.,
Very nice to be introduced to you. During the last SLO County APCD hosted GHG stakeholder meeting, Chris noted that
savings from the MBCP agreements in SLO County could be fed back into local grant programs for participating
jurisdictions. During the June CACOA Climate Protection Committee meeting, we heard from Monterey Bay Air
Resources District on their discussion with MBCP to potentially allocate MBCP funds to MBARD which would infuse the
funds into their existing EV infrastructure grant program. SLO County APCD will look to enter into a similar agreement
when the opportunity become available in SLO County. We look forward to talking with you about this when you are
ready and please let us know if you have any questions.

Hi Andrew,
Hope you are well! I am writing for two timely reasons:
1. As you know, the City of SLO and MB will begin receiving carbon free electricity from Monterey Bay
Community Power in January of 2020 and the majority of the cities in our region will similarly receive it
in 2021. I am writing to connect you with Beth Trenchard who manages MBCP’s programs and J.R.
Killigrew who is our primary contact. JR and Beth, I’ll let you take the conversation from here.
2. As previously discussed, we have some EV infrastructure budget in 2019-20, both at the bus yard and
at City Hall (as well as ongoing potential projects at our parking garages). Can we reconnect on
remaining grant funds and any changes as the result of moving into a new fiscal year?
Thanks so much!

Subject:Summary of SLO County APCD EV Support Efforts
Hi J. R.,
Thank you for the additional input on the energy programs that MBCP is funding with some of its revenue. During our
call, we will be interested in hearing more on your work with the Energy Commission.
Like MBARD, SLO County APCD has been active in our support of EV infrastructure and e‐fleet transitioning. In
partnership with Santa Barbara County and Ventura County air districts, we have secured four Energy Commission
planning grants where we have developed readiness plans for EV, Alt‐fuel and hydrogen infrastructure. We are currently
finalizing fourth plan for EV and hydrogen infrastructure implementation in the Tri‐Counties. Here is a summary of our
use of grant funding to help SLO County do our part to meet SB 32 reduction targets.
Corridor infrastructure projects in the works using AB 923 and mitigation funding
‐ 50kW Solar powered DC Fast charger at the Shandon rest stop in partnership with Caltrans
‐ 50kW DC fast charger at the Pismo Beach city hall
‐ Partnering with Recargo on their Energy Commission grant to install DC fast chargers between San Jose and
Buellton. We are using our grant funds to double (from 2 to 4) the number of DC fast chargers at their Paso
Robles and San Luis Obispo proposed locations. These chargers are to be 200kW if one car is plugged in and
100kW if two cars are plugged in
‐ We have an application for a 50kW DC fast charger in San Miguel and are seeking funds for this project
‐ Although not part of our grant program, we understand that VW is going to install 4 DC fast chargers in Pismo
AB 617
‐ Last year was our first round of AB617 awards that we are using to fund some projects identified in our Energy
Commission infrastructure implementation plan. You will find a table of the projects we are funding here:
https://www.slocleanair.org/community/grants/caap.php
‐ We have a list of applications that did not get funded.
‐ In Sept, we will get Board approval for $862K of project funding and this round will have a competitive
application process that factors in things like whether the project benefits are is in our AB1550 low‐income
communities, (https://ww3.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/auctionproceeds/communityinvestments.htm), and how
the project fits within community interest. We anticipate that the majority of the project will be for EV
infrastructure, electric school buses, etc.
Moyer & AB 923
‐ In January last year, our Board approved $158K for EV infrastructure projects. We have $83K remaining and the
City of SLO has interest in applying. Our application is here:
https://www.slocleanair.org/community/grants/altfuel.php
Transit e‐Transition Plan & Current Infrastructure Projects
‐ SLO Transit, SLO RTA and SLOCOG just hired a Civic Spark Fellow to develop a Plan to transition the region to
electric buses
‐ SLO RTA is seeking funding for their new maintenance yard and in preparation, they are moving now to install
solar bus covers and 4 chargers for which we have an application.
64
‐ SLO Transit had a EV site assessment under our CEC Infrastructure Implementation grant and are looking to
expand on that limited assessment.
‐ Both transit agencies are looking to get ahead of the CARB Clean Transit Rule. SLO County APCD wants to help,
but for what they need, our funding is quite limited
Solar Car Port & Public Agency Projects
‐ As an agency that has about 60% of our electric needs covered by solar, we are ready to close that gap with solar
car ports that will include 4 level 2 chargers. We also what to build in enough excess capacity to meet the needs
of our expanding EV fleet.
‐ There is a good opportunity to help our local public agencies transition their fleets to electric
We look forward to talking with you. Please let us know when you would like to set up a call. Does it make sense to have
MBARD on the call too?

Chris,
Thank you for the contact information.
I will approach Reverend Dr. Caroline Hall from having heard about the good works they are doing with their Earthcare
Group and my prior involvement with the Romero Institute and their Greenpower initiative which helped support MBCP
formation in Monterey County.
There is no need to make mention of your connection as a resident.
Their wiliness to support the CCA model and local involvement in MBCP supports their Earthcare mission.

Thank you Chris, that multi‐family construction guide looks helpful.
My main questions pertain to Monterey Bay power:
1. Assuming the city is getting all their power from MB before our first close of escrow, but PG&E is still the current
provider and owner of current infrastructure, do I still go through PG&E to set up our electric backbone
infrastructure or should MB be involved? PG&E will remain responsible for the physical components of the grid.
2. What can we expect the power bill to be assuming consumption is going to rise? (maybe addressed in the guide
package or best addressed to MB?) I apologize for not being more clear. JR is a representative from Monterey
Bay Community Power and he is aware that you may be reaching out (I should note, I wanted to give you a
direct contact for transparency, but if you’d like me to work with JR to answer your questions, I’m happy to do
so).
Is JR Killigrew a representative for MB power? Yes, sorry I wasn’t more clear.

Hi Jacob,
Thank you again for your patience. A couple of things:
1. I was going to connect you with Mike Horgan (Cc’d), but it sounds like you met with already. Hopefully
he was a useful resource.
2. We are continuing discussions with Monterey Bay Community Power regarding rebates/subsidies for all
electric multi family and/or affordable housing units. They won’t know have their 2020 programs
officially in place, but it sounds very promising. I’m including JR Killigrew as a Cc to this email. I’ll
continue to interact with him on program development, but you should feel free to reach out directly re:
the potential program, and in response to your question below.
3. I’m not sure if this is helpful, but Redwood Energy (one of the better known all electric energy
consultants in the state) just issues a multifamily construction guide. I haven’t reviewed it enough to
know its quality, but perhaps there is some information in there that can be helpful.
How else can I help?

Another note that I forgot to include is in regards to mainline electric plans for the site. We have started the

just taking over PG&E’s infrastructure? Can you provide me a contact person for Monterey Bay Power?

Good afternoon Chris,
Thank you again for your time the other day. We are really looking forward to continuing to work with the city to bring
forth a project that we are all proud of.
As requested, here is our expected additional cost per unit to go all electric.
SFR Condo
Item Description Additional Cost Additional Cost
Rough Electric Five 220‐volt wiring $ 1,000.00 $ 850.00
Range* Free standing induction range $ 1,700.00 $ 700.00
Pots Cook ware for induction appliances $ 200.00 $ 100.00
Drier Electric clothes drier $ 400.00 $ 400.00
Water Heater Tank‐less electric water heater $ 400.00 $ 250.00
FAU Electric heat pump $ 2,000.00 $ 1,500.00
Gas Piping Non‐installation of internal gas lines $ (1,000.00) $ (700.00)
Fire Place Non‐installation of fire place $ (1,000.00) $ ‐
Grand Total $ 3,700.00 $ 3,100.00
*Appliance costs increases if we install separate electric wall oven and induction cook‐top.
One of my big unknowns is how the heat pump is to function in the SFR units. Any information‐ or leads to suppliers‐ you
can provide for the electric heat pumps will be appreciated.
A question that I have is in regards to the electric bill. I’m not sure how Monterey Bay Power structures their bills but I
know PG&E is a tiered system, meaning the more power you use the higher the unit cost is. Going all electric is going to
raise the energy (power) consumption per dwelling unit. Under PG&E billing this would likely bump up a homeowner to
a higher tier and their bill would raise significantly‐ not just from the increased usage but also being in a higher tier. How
will all electric homes affect the electric bills in the city of San Luis Obispo with Monterey Bay Power? Natural gas is
relatively cheap. It might be an issue if we expect the electric bill to double or triple…
You mentioned that there could be a potential for Monterey Bay Power to offer us an incentive. That (any amount)
would be helpful. If provided an incentive, we would be willing to market (advertise) them as “partners”. I think it would
also be very helpful if they and/or the city can produce literature showing what the expected utility bill would be by
going all electric (assuming it is not going to increase drastically).
Thank you,

Thank you Chris, that multi‐family construction guide looks helpful.
My main questions pertain to Monterey Bay power:
1. Assuming the city is getting all their power from MB before our first close of escrow, but PG&E is still the current
provider and owner of current infrastructure, do I still go through PG&E to set up our electric backbone
infrastructure or should MB be involved? PG&E will remain responsible for the physical components of the grid.
2. What can we expect the power bill to be assuming consumption is going to rise? (maybe addressed in the guide
package or best addressed to MB?) I apologize for not being more clear. JR is a representative from Monterey
Bay Community Power and he is aware that you may be reaching out (I should note, I wanted to give you a
direct contact for transparency, but if you’d like me to work with JR to answer your questions, I’m happy to do
so).
Is JR Killigrew a representative for MB power? Yes, sorry I wasn’t more clear.

Hi Jacob,
Thank you again for your patience. A couple of things:
1. I was going to connect you with Mike Horgan (Cc’d), but it sounds like you met with already. Hopefully
he was a useful resource.
2. We are continuing discussions with Monterey Bay Community Power regarding rebates/subsidies for all
electric multi family and/or affordable housing units. They won’t know have their 2020 programs
officially in place, but it sounds very promising. I’m including JR Killigrew as a Cc to this email. I’ll
continue to interact with him on program development, but you should feel free to reach out directly re:
the potential program, and in response to your question below.
3. I’m not sure if this is helpful, but Redwood Energy (one of the better known all electric energy
consultants in the state) just issues a multifamily construction guide. I haven’t reviewed it enough to
know its quality, but perhaps there is some information in there that can be helpful.
How else can I help?

Good afternoon Chris,
Thank you again for your time the other day. We are really looking forward to continuing to work with the city to bring
forth a project that we are all proud of.
As requested, here is our expected additional cost per unit to go all electric.
SFR Condo
Item Description Additional Cost Additional Cost
Rough Electric Five 220‐volt wiring $ 1,000.00 $ 850.00
Range* Free standing induction range $ 1,700.00 $ 700.00
Pots Cook ware for induction appliances $ 200.00 $ 100.00
Drier Electric clothes drier $ 400.00 $ 400.00
96
Water Heater Tank‐less electric water heater $ 400.00 $ 250.00
FAU Electric heat pump $ 2,000.00 $ 1,500.00
Gas Piping Non‐installation of internal gas lines $ (1,000.00) $ (700.00)
Fire Place Non‐installation of fire place $ (1,000.00) $ ‐
Grand Total $ 3,700.00 $ 3,100.00
*Appliance costs increases if we install separate electric wall oven and induction cook‐top.
One of my big unknowns is how the heat pump is to function in the SFR units. Any information‐ or leads to suppliers‐ you
can provide for the electric heat pumps will be appreciated.
A question that I have is in regards to the electric bill. I’m not sure how Monterey Bay Power structures their bills but I
know PG&E is a tiered system, meaning the more power you use the higher the unit cost is. Going all electric is going to
raise the energy (power) consumption per dwelling unit. Under PG&E billing this would likely bump up a homeowner to
a higher tier and their bill would raise significantly‐ not just from the increased usage but also being in a higher tier. How
will all electric homes affect the electric bills in the city of San Luis Obispo with Monterey Bay Power? Natural gas is
relatively cheap. It might be an issue if we expect the electric bill to double or triple…
You mentioned that there could be a potential for Monterey Bay Power to offer us an incentive. That (any amount)
would be helpful. If provided an incentive, we would be willing to market (advertise) them as “partners”. I think it would
also be very helpful if they and/or the city can produce literature showing what the expected utility bill would be by
going all electric (assuming it is not going to increase drastically).
Thank you,

Thank you Chris, that multi‐family construction guide looks helpful.
My main questions pertain to Monterey Bay power:
1. Assuming the city is getting all their power from MB before our first close of escrow, but PG&E is still the current
provider and owner of current infrastructure, do I still go through PG&E to set up our electric backbone
infrastructure or should MB be involved? PG&E will remain responsible for the physical components of the grid.
2. What can we expect the power bill to be assuming consumption is going to rise? (maybe addressed in the guide
package or best addressed to MB?) I apologize for not being more clear. JR is a representative from Monterey
Bay Community Power and he is aware that you may be reaching out (I should note, I wanted to give you a
direct contact for transparency, but if you’d like me to work with JR to answer your questions, I’m happy to do
so).
Is JR Killigrew a representative for MB power? Yes, sorry I wasn’t more clear.

Hi Jacob,
106
Thank you again for your patience. A couple of things:
1. I was going to connect you with Mike Horgan (Cc’d), but it sounds like you met with already. Hopefully
he was a useful resource.
2. We are continuing discussions with Monterey Bay Community Power regarding rebates/subsidies for all
electric multi family and/or affordable housing units. They won’t know have their 2020 programs
officially in place, but it sounds very promising. I’m including JR Killigrew as a Cc to this email. I’ll
continue to interact with him on program development, but you should feel free to reach out directly re:
the potential program, and in response to your question below.
3. I’m not sure if this is helpful, but Redwood Energy (one of the better known all electric energy
consultants in the state) just issues a multifamily construction guide. I haven’t reviewed it enough to
know its quality, but perhaps there is some information in there that can be helpful.
How else can I help?

Subject: SLR all electric
Good afternoon Chris,
Thank you again for your time the other day. We are really looking forward to continuing to work with the city to bring
forth a project that we are all proud of.
As requested, here is our expected additional cost per unit to go all electric.
SFR Condo
Item Description Additional Cost Additional Cost
Rough Electric Five 220‐volt wiring $ 1,000.00 $ 850.00
Range* Free standing induction range $ 1,700.00 $ 700.00
Pots Cook ware for induction appliances $ 200.00 $ 100.00
Drier Electric clothes drier $ 400.00 $ 400.00
Water Heater Tank‐less electric water heater $ 400.00 $ 250.00
FAU Electric heat pump $ 2,000.00 $ 1,500.00
Gas Piping Non‐installation of internal gas lines $ (1,000.00) $ (700.00)
Fire Place Non‐installation of fire place $ (1,000.00) $ ‐
Grand Total $ 3,700.00 $ 3,100.00
*Appliance costs increases if we install separate electric wall oven and induction cook‐top.
One of my big unknowns is how the heat pump is to function in the SFR units. Any information‐ or leads to suppliers‐ you
can provide for the electric heat pumps will be appreciated.
A question that I have is in regards to the electric bill. I’m not sure how Monterey Bay Power structures their bills but I
know PG&E is a tiered system, meaning the more power you use the higher the unit cost is. Going all electric is going to
raise the energy (power) consumption per dwelling unit. Under PG&E billing this would likely bump up a homeowner to
a higher tier and their bill would raise significantly‐ not just from the increased usage but also being in a higher tier. How
will all electric homes affect the electric bills in the city of San Luis Obispo with Monterey Bay Power? Natural gas is
relatively cheap. It might be an issue if we expect the electric bill to double or triple…
108
You mentioned that there could be a potential for Monterey Bay Power to offer us an incentive. That (any amount)
would be helpful. If provided an incentive, we would be willing to market (advertise) them as “partners”. I think it would
also be very helpful if they and/or the city can produce literature showing what the expected utility bill would be by
going all electric (assuming it is not going to increase drastically).
Thank you,

Good afternoon Chris,
Thank you again for your time the other day. We are really looking forward to continuing to work with the city to bring
forth a project that we are all proud of.
As requested, here is our expected additional cost per unit to go all electric.
SFR Condo
Item Description Additional Cost Additional Cost
Rough Electric Five 220‐volt wiring $ 1,000.00 $ 850.00
Range* Free standing induction range $ 1,700.00 $ 700.00
Pots Cook ware for induction appliances $ 200.00 $ 100.00
Drier Electric clothes drier $ 400.00 $ 400.00
Water Heater Tank‐less electric water heater $ 400.00 $ 250.00
FAU Electric heat pump $ 2,000.00 $ 1,500.00
Gas Piping Non‐installation of internal gas lines $ (1,000.00) $ (700.00)
Fire Place Non‐installation of fire place $ (1,000.00) $ ‐
Grand Total $ 3,700.00 $ 3,100.00
*Appliance costs increases if we install separate electric wall oven and induction cook‐top.
118
One of my big unknowns is how the heat pump is to function in the SFR units. Any information‐ or leads to suppliers‐ you
can provide for the electric heat pumps will be appreciated.
A question that I have is in regards to the electric bill. I’m not sure how Monterey Bay Power structures their bills but I
know PG&E is a tiered system, meaning the more power you use the higher the unit cost is. Going all electric is going to
raise the energy (power) consumption per dwelling unit. Under PG&E billing this would likely bump up a homeowner to
a higher tier and their bill would raise significantly‐ not just from the increased usage but also being in a higher tier. How
will all electric homes affect the electric bills in the city of San Luis Obispo with Monterey Bay Power? Natural gas is
relatively cheap. It might be an issue if we expect the electric bill to double or triple…
You mentioned that there could be a potential for Monterey Bay Power to offer us an incentive. That (any amount)
would be helpful. If provided an incentive, we would be willing to market (advertise) them as “partners”. I think it would
also be very helpful if they and/or the city can produce literature showing what the expected utility bill would be by
going all electric (assuming it is not going to increase drastically).
Thank you,

Thank you Chris, that multi‐family construction guide looks helpful.
My main questions pertain to Monterey Bay power:
1. Assuming the city is getting all their power from MB before our first close of escrow, but PG&E is still the current
provider and owner of current infrastructure, do I still go through PG&E to set up our electric backbone
infrastructure or should MB be involved? PG&E will remain responsible for the physical components of the grid.
2. What can we expect the power bill to be assuming consumption is going to rise? (maybe addressed in the guide
package or best addressed to MB?) I apologize for not being more clear. JR is a representative from Monterey
Bay Community Power and he is aware that you may be reaching out (I should note, I wanted to give you a
direct contact for transparency, but if you’d like me to work with JR to answer your questions, I’m happy to do
so).
Is JR Killigrew a representative for MB power? Yes, sorry I wasn’t more clear.

Hi Jacob,
Thank you again for your patience. A couple of things:
1. I was going to connect you with Mike Horgan (Cc’d), but it sounds like you met with already. Hopefully
he was a useful resource.
2. We are continuing discussions with Monterey Bay Community Power regarding rebates/subsidies for all
electric multi family and/or affordable housing units. They won’t know have their 2020 programs
officially in place, but it sounds very promising. I’m including JR Killigrew as a Cc to this email. I’ll
continue to interact with him on program development, but you should feel free to reach out directly re:
the potential program, and in response to your question below.

3. I’m not sure if this is helpful, but Redwood Energy (one of the better known all electric energy
consultants in the state) just issues a multifamily construction guide. I haven’t reviewed it enough to
know its quality, but perhaps there is some information in there that can be helpful.
How else can I help?

Bay Community Power and he is aware that you may be reaching out (I should note, I wanted to give you a
direct contact for transparency, but if you’d like me to work with JR to answer your questions, I’m happy to do
so).
Is JR Killigrew a representative for MB power? Yes, sorry I wasn’t more clear.

Hi Jacob,
Thank you again for your patience. A couple of things:
1. I was going to connect you with Mike Horgan (Cc’d), but it sounds like you met with already. Hopefully
he was a useful resource.
2. We are continuing discussions with Monterey Bay Community Power regarding rebates/subsidies for all
electric multi family and/or affordable housing units. They won’t know have their 2020 programs
officially in place, but it sounds very promising. I’m including JR Killigrew as a Cc to this email. I’ll
131
continue to interact with him on program development, but you should feel free to reach out directly re:
the potential program, and in response to your question below.
3. I’m not sure if this is helpful, but Redwood Energy (one of the better known all electric energy
consultants in the state) just issues a multifamily construction guide. I haven’t reviewed it enough to
know its quality, but perhaps there is some information in there that can be helpful.
How else can I help?

No worries, sounds good.
Another note that I forgot to include is in regards to mainline electric plans for the site. We have started the
conversation with PG&E but should Monterey Bay Power be involved as eventually they’ll be supplying power? Are they
just taking over PG&E’s infrastructure? Can you provide me a contact person for Monterey Bay Power?
Thank you,

Subject: SLR all electric
Good afternoon Chris,
Thank you again for your time the other day. We are really looking forward to continuing to work with the city to bring
forth a project that we are all proud of.
As requested, here is our expected additional cost per unit to go all electric.
SFR Condo
Item Description Additional Cost Additional Cost
Rough Electric Five 220‐volt wiring $ 1,000.00 $ 850.00
Range* Free standing induction range $ 1,700.00 $ 700.00
Pots Cook ware for induction appliances $ 200.00 $ 100.00
Drier Electric clothes drier $ 400.00 $ 400.00
Water Heater Tank‐less electric water heater $ 400.00 $ 250.00
FAU Electric heat pump $ 2,000.00 $ 1,500.00
Gas Piping Non‐installation of internal gas lines $ (1,000.00) $ (700.00)
Fire Place Non‐installation of fire place $ (1,000.00) $ ‐
Grand Total $ 3,700.00 $ 3,100.00
*Appliance costs increases if we install separate electric wall oven and induction cook‐top.
One of my big unknowns is how the heat pump is to function in the SFR units. Any information‐ or leads to suppliers‐ you
can provide for the electric heat pumps will be appreciated.
A question that I have is in regards to the electric bill. I’m not sure how Monterey Bay Power structures their bills but I
know PG&E is a tiered system, meaning the more power you use the higher the unit cost is. Going all electric is going to
raise the energy (power) consumption per dwelling unit. Under PG&E billing this would likely bump up a homeowner to
a higher tier and their bill would raise significantly‐ not just from the increased usage but also being in a higher tier. How
will all electric homes affect the electric bills in the city of San Luis Obispo with Monterey Bay Power? Natural gas is
relatively cheap. It might be an issue if we expect the electric bill to double or triple…
You mentioned that there could be a potential for Monterey Bay Power to offer us an incentive. That (any amount)
would be helpful. If provided an incentive, we would be willing to market (advertise) them as “partners”. I think it would
also be very helpful if they and/or the city can produce literature showing what the expected utility bill would be by
going all electric (assuming it is not going to increase drastically).
133
Thank you,

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the introduction to Jason and Aaron. Currently, MBCP does match the NEMA rate via PG&E but per the rules,
systems can’t be sized past 80‐90% so there isn’t net surplus compensation. Ultimately, the net amount of generation
you pull from the grid MBCP will either have at minimum 5% rebate or a discount generation rate via our cost plus
model.
I hope this helps and happy to find some time to discuss more. I’m copying Lina Williams, our Manager of Energy
Account Services.

Hi J.R.,
Hope you are well. I am writing to connect you with Jason Meeks and Aaron Floyd from our Utilities division.
They are engaged in an SST project with PG&E and Southland Energy looking at some ground mounted solar
using NEM or NEMA at our water treatment plant (located in unincorporated county). To ensure they are
making an informed decision, I am wondering if someone on your staff can help them understand what their
NEM/NEMA rate might be in 2021, and if there is anything else they should be thinking about should the
County move forward with MBCP. You and your team’s help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the introduction and it’s good to connect with you, Andy.
As Chris mentioned, MBCP will be serving customers in SLO/MB in 2020 and at minimum the residents/businesses in
Paso, Pismo, Grover Beach and Pismo Beach in 2021 with potentially Atascadero and the unincorporated portions of the
County. MBCP revinests about 2% of gross revenue into our local energy programs which are based on transportation
electrification, building electrification and distributed energy resources. We’d like to schedule some time to learn about
what SLOAPCD is doing in similar realms and how we can potentially partner seeing as our goals/missions are definitely
aligned.
Please offer a few times to chat the week after July 4th and we look forward to speaking with you.

Subject:Connecting with our CCAs & SB 676 as amended
Hi all,
Below are the comments/recommendations by Monterey Bay Community Power's General Counsel on SB676. And the
matter has been referred to the Policy Advisor from the Electric Auto Assn's sister org. The comments by our General
Counsel are a result of the following.
As I suggested in our last call, connecting with our respective CCAs seems useful in mobilizing all of our resources to
prevent the current assault intended as a coup. Last week I attended our CCAs Community Advisory Council with a plea
for them to be in regular communication with me/CACE to tackle these legislative issues flying thru the legislature
unopposed. To my pleasant surprise, during his legislative update, our new, awesome General Counsel agreed that
action was indeed necessary and went thru the bills with his perspective, saying that he would keep the Advisory Council
informed of future legislative issues on a regular basis. He invited me into his office after the meeting and assured me
that he was ontop of the issues, receiving up to the minute updates as we spoke. He also had intention to address the
governor. And in addition to a member of the council who had previously asked me to be kept updated, another gave
me her contact saying that she also wished to have our legislative updates.
Something else useful happened in that meeting. Our Chief Officer of our regional air district is also on the Council. In
response to my complaint that CalCCA has been too passive, choosing to just watch bills, he, and general counsel
seconded, that their approach was to not just oppose but to try to work together for solutions because they are
attempting long term coalitions, building working relationships. They said that if they were to just quickly oppose they
felt that no one would bother to pay attention to them.
Also when one of the Board of Directors of MBCP came to one of our recent Electric Auto Assn EVents, as I may have
already conveyed, he was shocked to learn of the legislative situation and he wishes to remain updated by me. When
asked if he had passed the info along to other board members he said that because of the Brown Act, he was unable to
communicate MBCP issues to other board members outside of meetings. He did say that he would instead try to have it
agendized.
Then, on Saturday, at City Of Santa Cruz Budgetary Priorities Retreat that was open to the public and for comment, I
conveyed the same message. One of the council members who is the city's representative to our CCA was interested and
wanted to be kept informed also. As a fun aside, I was horrified that some of the city staff had ordered bottled water
and other drinks in plastic for their lunch, so I handed out some reusable steel bottles left over from an EVent that
happened to still be in my car, telling the City Manager, no more plastic. The mayor was especially glad to be given it,
assuring me that she had one at home.
So, I feel encouraged by the outcome and maybe others already are doing this, but I am sharing this in hopes of
encouraging others who may not be, to be in communication with their own CCA. Since I had been asked for my take on
SB676, I took the liberty of consulting with our General Counsel whose comments are below. I am removing his contact
info because he has stated that he cannot give us legal advice, but did share his and CalCCA's current stance on the bill.
Thanks everyone for all of your work and dedication,

Beverly
I have a somewhat unique role, as both the GC and effective policy director for MBCP. As the General Council,
I need to refrain from providing any potential legal advice to anyone but the Authority regarding the bill, or its
potential impacts.
I can, however, share that MBCP and CalCCA remain opposed to SB 676. Our position remains that the bill
would better serve statewide goals if it:
Recognized that CCAs, like IOUs, are funding programs to promote EV adoptions.
Removed the use of “all” before “ratepayers” in several locations to avoid confusion that only
unbundled customers should pay for the IOUs' EV program costs.
Distinguished CCA EV programs so that they are not subject to PUC oversight.
Added language to clarify that, although CCAs will self‐implement their EV programs, CCAs will
nevertheless comply with the same statutory mandate that IOUs must comply with under the statute.
Added language to clarify that IOU customers will pay for IOU programs while CCA customers will pay
for CCA programs.
Thank you again for your support of CCAs and MBCP.

Hi
Thank you so much for acknowledging the gravity of the bills moving through the legislature at the Community Advisory
Council meeting on Wednesday and giving a brief summary of some of the most threatening bills currently passing
through the legislature. I appreciated your asking the council to become individually involved and for your taking the
time to talk to me afterwards. It meant a lot to me. I had been feeling a sense of despair about what seemed
140
overwhelming for our group to manage and have a renewed sense of hope with you onboard! So glad to have such a
smart, pro‐active and caring partner in this transitional journey to save a liveable planet for humanity!
So, our statewide coalition to support and actively defend CCEs, California Alliance for Community Energy, CACE, has
forwarded the attached bill SB676 to me to establish whether it is acceptable in its amended form so we can take it off
our oppose list. It reads ok to me, but I am not certain what its future implications could be. Would you mind taking a
read on this and letting me know what you think? Not wanting to place more burden on what I am sure is a busy work
schedule and hope instead that you will consider us an ally that assists your work and definitely the goals of MBCP!
And btw, Kristie Markey, Jane Parker's aid, who partners with me on electric vehicle events, told me yesterday that they
admire you and are sure going to miss you!

Are there opportunities to team up with your air pollution control district? Do they have any transportation

Hi Andrew,
Hope you are well! I am writing for two timely reasons:
1. As you know, the City of SLO and MB will begin receiving carbon free electricity from Monterey Bay
Community Power in January of 2020 and the majority of the cities in our region will similarly receive it
in 2021. I am writing to connect you with Beth Trenchard who manages MBCP’s programs and J.R.
Killigrew who is our primary contact. JR and Beth, I’ll let you take the conversation from here.
2. As previously discussed, we have some EV infrastructure budget in 2019-20, both at the bus yard and
at City Hall (as well as ongoing potential projects at our parking garages). Can we reconnect on
remaining grant funds and any changes as the result of moving into a new fiscal year?
Thanks so much!
Best,

Scott ‐ Let’s go for the 4th Tuesday in September.
On a side note, could each of you indicate whether the below list of events are worth MBCP sponsoring/tabling or
attending:
September:
SLO Jazz Festival‐September 27 – Not happening
Boots and Brews Country Music Festival‐September 28 – I don’t remember booths other than food specific, but could
still be interesting during the day hours before the main act.
Morro Bay Art in the Park‐August 30 – Primarily artist focused booths, but could be interesting to get into.
Avocado & Margarita Street Festival‐September 7 – Yes, but pretty loud to talk to people
2019 Whale Rock Music & Arts Festival‐September 14 – yes, but not sure on their tabling requirements
National Drive Electric Week (Morro Bay)‐September 14 – Haven’t heard of this as a specific standalone event?
Art After Dark SLO‐September 6 – Not a standalone event. Would only make sense if partnering with an appropriate
business that is participating.
10th Annual Burgers & Brews Competition‐September 1 – Never been
ECOSLO’s 35th Annual SLO County Creeks to Coast Clean‐Up Day‐September 21 – Not a single event. Takes place all over
similar to beach cleanups, but could be great to find the most interactive one or if there’s a final event meetup.
October:
2019 SLO Ultra Trail Runs & Yoga Music Festival‐October 26 – yes
Morro Bay Harbor Festival‐October 6 Yes
November:
Dia de los Muertos in Mission Plaza‐November 2 – If they have the dog leg setup with vendors
Veteran’s Day Celebration‐November 7 – at Farmers’ Market? Not applicable to that specific event night for boothing as
a veteran service, but it’s a great evening to have a general booth at The Market.
Central Coast Fund for Children Winter Gala Season to Believe‐November 9 doesn’t seem like an appropriate fit for
tabling.
Sustainable Ag Expo‐November 11 yes
December:
Lighted Boat Parade‐December 7 no
Annual Downtown Holiday Parade SLO‐December 6 no
Morro Bay Winterfest‐December 1 not sure what this is
53rd Annual South County Holiday Parade‐December 7 assuming a standard parade, but not haven’t been
February 2020:
‐SLO Craft Beer Festival‐February 21 Possibly. Food & alcohol focused events are really hard to table at. I suggest
checking audience of the event first.
May 2020:
Morro Bay in the Park‐TBD not sure what this is

Hi Scott,
Thanks for the edits.
If both SLO & MB could send any additional stakeholder names/contact info by the EOD of this week, that would be
great. From there I can circulate a final draft to any final comments and then we can share with SLO/MB leadership if
that works.
I have a scheduled presentation to SLO city council on 9/3. How about a presentation in September?

Hi J.R.,
Please find SLO’s comments to the outreach plan, attached.
Speaking of key stakeholders, how do City staff interact in a coordinated way with your staff? I am hopeful that
there will be a steering committee or some other body made up of staff for projects like the electrification plan,
especially since we will be the ones implementing them in our community. Let me know, thanks!

ECOSLO’s 35th Annual SLO County Creeks to Coast Clean‐Up Day‐September 21 – Not a single event. Takes place all over
similar to beach cleanups, but could be great to find the most interactive one or if there’s a final event meetup.
October:

Morro Bay Harbor Festival‐October 6 Yes
November:
Dia de los Muertos in Mission Plaza‐November 2 – If they have the dog leg setup with vendors

Veteran’s Day Celebration‐November 7 – at Farmers’ Market? Not applicable to that specific event night for boothing as
a veteran service, but it’s a great evening to have a general booth at The Market.
Central Coast Fund for Children Winter Gala Season to Believe‐November 9 doesn’t seem like an appropriate fit for
tabling.
Sustainable Ag Expo‐November 11 yes
December:
Lighted Boat Parade‐December 7 no
Annual Downtown Holiday Parade SLO‐December 6 no
Morro Bay Winterfest‐December 1 not sure what this is
53rd Annual South County Holiday Parade‐December 7 assuming a standard parade, but not haven’t been
February 2020:

Hi Scott,
Thanks for the edits.
If both SLO & MB could send any additional stakeholder names/contact info by the EOD of this week, that would be
great. From there I can circulate a final draft to any final comments and then we can share with SLO/MB leadership if
that works.
I have a scheduled presentation to SLO city council on 9/3. How about a presentation in September?

Hi J.R.,
Please find SLO’s comments to the outreach plan, attached.
Speaking of key stakeholders, how do City staff interact in a coordinated way with your staff? I am hopeful that
there will be a steering committee or some other body made up of staff for projects like the electrification plan,
especially since we will be the ones implementing them in our community. Let me know, thanks!

On a side note, could each of you indicate whether the below list of events are worth MBCP sponsoring/tabling or
attending:
September:
SLO Jazz Festival‐September 27 – Not happening
Boots and Brews Country Music Festival‐September 28 – I don’t remember booths other than food specific, but could
still be interesting during the day hours before the main act.
Morro Bay Art in the Park‐August 30 – Primarily artist focused booths, but could be interesting to get into.
Avocado & Margarita Street Festival‐September 7 – Yes, but pretty loud to talk to people
2019 Whale Rock Music & Arts Festival‐September 14 – yes, but not sure on their tabling requirements
National Drive Electric Week (Morro Bay)‐September 14 – Haven’t heard of this as a specific standalone event?
Art After Dark SLO‐September 6 – Not a standalone event. Would only make sense if partnering with an appropriate

Way late to the game. I have attached my edits.
When do you need community organization list, and do you need contact information for those now?
Also, would you be able to make a presentation to City Council prior to launching this engagement effort?
Thanks!

Hi J.R.,
Please find SLO’s comments to the outreach plan, attached.
Speaking of key stakeholders, how do City staff interact in a coordinated way with your staff? I am hopeful that
there will be a steering committee or some other body made up of staff for projects like the electrification plan,
especially since we will be the ones implementing them in our community. Let me know, thanks!

Subject: RE: CARB/SB454 ‐ timeline extension opposition
Thanks Joe. I think the compliance timing is really the critical piece, and we should focus on the unique issues for public
agencies. Here’s some responses to Joe’s and Rafael’s questions.
Messaging on timing (others are welcome to edit/refine):
1. Public agencies have been the lead providing public L2 charging to the public for decades
a. Public agencies fill the market gap, serving communities with charging to support EV adoption for public
good and not for profit
b. We (public agencies) serve a critical role and are necessary to ensure all our communities have access to
EV technologies
2. We operate much more public charging than accounted for the impact analysis
3. A short compliance timeline would be an unfunded mandate
4. Without an extension to this timeline, local agencies like ours may be forced to close public EVSE, due to the
unfunded mandates that an accelerated timeline would create, reducing public opportunities for EV
charging.
a. This requirement would cause significant financial hardship to public agencies that have served as
key early owners and operators of EV charging infrastructure
b. Many agencies do not have available funds for EVSE for EVSE compliance
c. Many of our chargers were installed with grant dollars, and we generally don’t have dedicated funding
to upgrade them
d. We would have to remove or close chargers, where we can’t find other funds to bring them into
compliance
e. Public dollars are tight with competing objectives
f. Existing chargers are generally still operational – still within their useful life, but we’d have to replace
them early
g. The impact of the short compliance timeline would be counter‐productive
h. Agencies would not be able to bring all public L2 charging into compliance easily or readily
i. So, we would end up closing or removing L2 chargers, thereby blocking “open” access within our
communities
5. A five-year compliance timeline would be counter-productive to the goals of the proposed
standard. It would result in the removal of existing infrastructure before the end of its useful life
and unintentionally disincentivize or delay local agencies that were early adopters from installing
chargers to avoid disproportionate compliance costs. Extending the compliance timeframe is a
critical revision to ensure public agencies are able to have an ongoing role in providing public L2
charging in their communities
Opposition to the timeline, from what I’ve heard: generally charging advocates like Plug in America and some on the
Board, who don’t understand why compliance should take so long. They want open access charging available for the
public sooner.
188
If anyone wants to discuss, I can be available this afternoon – happy to put an optional call on the calendar for any that
want to discuss. Just let me know.

Hi again everyone – just an update, I’ve heard that opposition to the extended timeline is expected on
Thursday and not all Board members think it’s necessary. It will be very important for comments to be
strong on the timeline issue and why it’s important to public agencies. For anyone that can attend on
Thursday, I think it will really help us make our case.

Importance: High
194
Thanks for a good discussion to those on the call. Here is follow up – NOTE: comment letters are
due to CARB by midnight on Monday, 6/24. The Thursday Board meeting to adopt regs is expected
to be contentious, so it’s important for agencies to submit comment letters, and/or attend the
Board meeting if you can. More resources are below, including a link to submit comment letters.
I am sharing a draft letter as a starting point. Feel free to use this to customize for your key issues if
you are submitting a letter. We will further customize for our Sacramento comment letter. Thank
you Jessie for your edits!
Folks can contact me with questions.
A. UPDATE FROM CARB
I am attaching an email I just received from Elise Keddie with CARB, summarizing the edits they will
propose to the Board during the meeting on Thursday. *Note – I am attaching for your reference as
you prepare comments, but please do not distribute widely.
They have included the critical update – extending the compliance timeline to the time of EVSE
replacement, but no later than July 1 ,2033.
B. SUMMARY OF ISSUES DISCUSSED BY AGENCIES
Here is a recap of the various issues raised by folks on the call yesterday. As discussed, each of our
agencies have varying degrees of priority or concern across the list. These notes provide a recap of
the discussion, rather than identify consensus:
1. Unique role of the public agency
a. Analysis underestimates the extent of public charging and impacts resulting from
compliance– analysis focuses on LCFS, which undercounts hundreds of chargers
b. Regs pose impacts to local governments that are engaged in deploying
infrastructure on behalf of our communities
c. Pubic agencies have been the entities to provide deployment in absence of the
private market
195
d. Resources would need to be diverted from expanding charging access to retrofits
and compliance
e. Desire for standardization, but the question is what it means for public agencies
that own and operate chargers
2. Compliance timeline
a. Critical that timeline gets extended from 5 to 10 years
b. Reporting begins 45 days effective from data of regulation – concern it’s too quick
c. Reporting onus should be on the network provider
3. Reporting
a. ARB is anticipated to require aggregated reporting by transaction type
b. More challenging when owner uses multiple network companies (LA may use 4, and
will test more)
c. Reports should be kept simple and align with LCFS
d. Statutory language on reporting is much simpler
e. If EVSE is grant‐funded, agencies are already reporting
f. Agencies with lots of EVSE and numerous networks are harder hit by the regulation
– reporting will be more challenging. Probably easier and more feasible for agencies
with fewer chargers or network companies. Either way, it will require staff time.
4. Any money that goes into retrofits and compliance is money that can’t be invested in
expanding the EV charging network
5. Technology will become dated quickly
a. ISO 15118, allowing cars to talk to chargers: technology is coming and Maven is
doing now.. Would not be allowed based on these regs.
b. Requires hard wiring a tech solution that will get out of date – not a long‐term
solution
c. Regs preclude innovative solutions – for example, many agencies have invested in
innovative parking technology apps that could also be used for charging payment
d. Desire for payment to be universal
e. Credit cards add a lot of cost
6. Retrofits may trigger ADA compliance
7. CALeVIP alignment – regs should grandfather or exempt CALeVIP chargers
a. More coordination needed between CARB and CEC
b. Right now, the eligible equipment for Sacramento CAleVIP program does not meet
regulation requirements
8. Important to flag the actual number of L2 operated by public agencies, which was
undercounted in the analysis of impacts to local governments

Subject: RE: CARB/SB454 ‐ timeline extension opposition
Thanks Joe. I think the compliance timing is really the critical piece, and we should focus on the unique issues for public
agencies. Here’s some responses to Joe’s and Rafael’s questions.
Messaging on timing (others are welcome to edit/refine):
1. Public agencies have been the lead providing public L2 charging to the public for decades
a. Public agencies fill the market gap, serving communities with charging to support EV adoption for public
good and not for profit
b. We (public agencies) serve a critical role and are necessary to ensure all our communities have access to
EV technologies
2. We operate much more public charging than accounted for the impact analysis
3. A short compliance timeline would be an unfunded mandate
4. Without an extension to this timeline, local agencies like ours may be forced to close public EVSE, due to the
unfunded mandates that an accelerated timeline would create, reducing public opportunities for EV
charging.
a. This requirement would cause significant financial hardship to public agencies that have served as
key early owners and operators of EV charging infrastructure
b. Many agencies do not have available funds for EVSE for EVSE compliance
200
c. Many of our chargers were installed with grant dollars, and we generally don’t have dedicated funding
to upgrade them
d. We would have to remove or close chargers, where we can’t find other funds to bring them into
compliance
e. Public dollars are tight with competing objectives
f. Existing chargers are generally still operational – still within their useful life, but we’d have to replace
them early
g. The impact of the short compliance timeline would be counter‐productive
h. Agencies would not be able to bring all public L2 charging into compliance easily or readily
i. So, we would end up closing or removing L2 chargers, thereby blocking “open” access within our
communities
5. A five-year compliance timeline would be counter-productive to the goals of the proposed
standard. It would result in the removal of existing infrastructure before the end of its useful life
and unintentionally disincentivize or delay local agencies that were early adopters from installing
chargers to avoid disproportionate compliance costs. Extending the compliance timeframe is a
critical revision to ensure public agencies are able to have an ongoing role in providing public L2
charging in their communities
Opposition to the timeline, from what I’ve heard: generally charging advocates like Plug in America and some on the
Board, who don’t understand why compliance should take so long. They want open access charging available for the
public sooner.
If anyone wants to discuss, I can be available this afternoon – happy to put an optional call on the calendar for any that
want to discuss. Just let me know.

Hi again everyone – just an update, I’ve heard that opposition to the extended timeline is expected on
Thursday and not all Board members think it’s necessary. It will be very important for comments to be
strong on the timeline issue and why it’s important to public agencies. For anyone that can attend on
Thursday, I think it will really help us make our case.
I already mentioned, but just to repeat – Jenna is attending Thursday to make verbal comments on
behalf of the City of Sacramento. I am out of office but will be monitoring developments, available by

Subject: SB454 Follow‐Up
Importance: High
Thanks for a good discussion to those on the call. Here is follow up – NOTE: comment letters are
due to CARB by midnight on Monday, 6/24. The Thursday Board meeting to adopt regs is expected
to be contentious, so it’s important for agencies to submit comment letters, and/or attend the
Board meeting if you can. More resources are below, including a link to submit comment letters.
I am sharing a draft letter as a starting point. Feel free to use this to customize for your key issues if
you are submitting a letter. We will further customize for our Sacramento comment letter. Thank
you Jessie for your edits!
Folks can contact me with questions.
A. UPDATE FROM CARB
I am attaching an email I just received from Elise Keddie with CARB, summarizing the edits they will
propose to the Board during the meeting on Thursday. *Note – I am attaching for your reference as
you prepare comments, but please do not distribute widely.
207
They have included the critical update – extending the compliance timeline to the time of EVSE
replacement, but no later than July 1 ,2033.
B. SUMMARY OF ISSUES DISCUSSED BY AGENCIES
Here is a recap of the various issues raised by folks on the call yesterday. As discussed, each of our
agencies have varying degrees of priority or concern across the list. These notes provide a recap of
the discussion, rather than identify consensus:
1. Unique role of the public agency
a. Analysis underestimates the extent of public charging and impacts resulting from
compliance– analysis focuses on LCFS, which undercounts hundreds of chargers
b. Regs pose impacts to local governments that are engaged in deploying
infrastructure on behalf of our communities
c. Pubic agencies have been the entities to provide deployment in absence of the
private market
d. Resources would need to be diverted from expanding charging access to retrofits
and compliance
e. Desire for standardization, but the question is what it means for public agencies
that own and operate chargers
2. Compliance timeline
a. Critical that timeline gets extended from 5 to 10 years
b. Reporting begins 45 days effective from data of regulation – concern it’s too quick
c. Reporting onus should be on the network provider
3. Reporting
a. ARB is anticipated to require aggregated reporting by transaction type
b. More challenging when owner uses multiple network companies (LA may use 4, and
will test more)
c. Reports should be kept simple and align with LCFS
d. Statutory language on reporting is much simpler
e. If EVSE is grant‐funded, agencies are already reporting
f. Agencies with lots of EVSE and numerous networks are harder hit by the regulation
– reporting will be more challenging. Probably easier and more feasible for agencies
with fewer chargers or network companies. Either way, it will require staff time.
4. Any money that goes into retrofits and compliance is money that can’t be invested in
expanding the EV charging network
5. Technology will become dated quickly
a. ISO 15118, allowing cars to talk to chargers: technology is coming and Maven is
doing now.. Would not be allowed based on these regs.
208
b. Requires hard wiring a tech solution that will get out of date – not a long‐term
solution
c. Regs preclude innovative solutions – for example, many agencies have invested in
innovative parking technology apps that could also be used for charging payment
d. Desire for payment to be universal
e. Credit cards add a lot of cost
6. Retrofits may trigger ADA compliance
7. CALeVIP alignment – regs should grandfather or exempt CALeVIP chargers
a. More coordination needed between CARB and CEC
b. Right now, the eligible equipment for Sacramento CAleVIP program does not meet
regulation requirements
8. Important to flag the actual number of L2 operated by public agencies, which was
undercounted in the analysis of impacts to local governments

Thank you Chris, that multi‐family construction guide looks helpful.
My main questions pertain to Monterey Bay power:
1. Assuming the city is getting all their power from MB before our first close of escrow, but PG&E is still the current
provider and owner of current infrastructure, do I still go through PG&E to set up our electric backbone
infrastructure or should MB be involved? PG&E will remain responsible for the physical components of the grid.
2. What can we expect the power bill to be assuming consumption is going to rise? (maybe addressed in the guide
package or best addressed to MB?) I apologize for not being more clear. JR is a representative from Monterey
Bay Community Power and he is aware that you may be reaching out (I should note, I wanted to give you a
direct contact for transparency, but if you’d like me to work with JR to answer your questions, I’m happy to do
so).
Is JR Killigrew a representative for MB power? Yes, sorry I wasn’t more clear.

Hi Jacob,
Thank you again for your patience. A couple of things:
1. I was going to connect you with Mike Horgan (Cc’d), but it sounds like you met with already. Hopefully
he was a useful resource.
2. We are continuing discussions with Monterey Bay Community Power regarding rebates/subsidies for all
electric multi family and/or affordable housing units. They won’t know have their 2020 programs
officially in place, but it sounds very promising. I’m including JR Killigrew as a Cc to this email. I’ll
continue to interact with him on program development, but you should feel free to reach out directly re:
the potential program, and in response to your question below.
3. I’m not sure if this is helpful, but Redwood Energy (one of the better known all electric energy
consultants in the state) just issues a multifamily construction guide. I haven’t reviewed it enough to
know its quality, but perhaps there is some information in there that can be helpful.
How else can I help?

Good afternoon Chris,
Thank you again for your time the other day. We are really looking forward to continuing to work with the city to bring
forth a project that we are all proud of.
As requested, here is our expected additional cost per unit to go all electric.
SFR Condo
Item Description Additional Cost Additional Cost
Rough Electric Five 220‐volt wiring $ 1,000.00 $ 850.00
Range* Free standing induction range $ 1,700.00 $ 700.00
Pots Cook ware for induction appliances $ 200.00 $ 100.00
Drier Electric clothes drier $ 400.00 $ 400.00
Water Heater Tank‐less electric water heater $ 400.00 $ 250.00
FAU Electric heat pump $ 2,000.00 $ 1,500.00
Gas Piping Non‐installation of internal gas lines $ (1,000.00) $ (700.00)
Fire Place Non‐installation of fire place $ (1,000.00) $ ‐
Grand Total $ 3,700.00 $ 3,100.00
*Appliance costs increases if we install separate electric wall oven and induction cook‐top.
One of my big unknowns is how the heat pump is to function in the SFR units. Any information‐ or leads to suppliers‐ you
can provide for the electric heat pumps will be appreciated.
A question that I have is in regards to the electric bill. I’m not sure how Monterey Bay Power structures their bills but I
know PG&E is a tiered system, meaning the more power you use the higher the unit cost is. Going all electric is going to
raise the energy (power) consumption per dwelling unit. Under PG&E billing this would likely bump up a homeowner to
a higher tier and their bill would raise significantly‐ not just from the increased usage but also being in a higher tier. How
will all electric homes affect the electric bills in the city of San Luis Obispo with Monterey Bay Power? Natural gas is
relatively cheap. It might be an issue if we expect the electric bill to double or triple…
You mentioned that there could be a potential for Monterey Bay Power to offer us an incentive. That (any amount)
would be helpful. If provided an incentive, we would be willing to market (advertise) them as “partners”. I think it would
also be very helpful if they and/or the city can produce literature showing what the expected utility bill would be by
going all electric (assuming it is not going to increase drastically).
Thank you,

Subject:RE: CARB/SB454 - timeline extension opposition
Hello all,
I wanted to share a quick update: I spoke on behalf of the City of Sacramento this morning and just left the CARB hearing
related to this issue. There were 28 public comments and extensive discussion by the Board members. Ultimately, the
resolution passed. However, due to CARB staff’s proposed modifications (including an extended compliance timeline)
and the written/verbal comments, they will work on releasing a modified regulation order in coming weeks. Once
released, there will be a 15 day comment period. Jennifer and I will continue to track this issue and update you as
needed. We hope to continue this dialogue and collaboration.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
All the best,

Subject: RE: CARB/SB454 ‐ timeline extension opposition
Thanks Joe. I think the compliance timing is really the critical piece, and we should focus on the unique issues for public
agencies. Here’s some responses to Joe’s and Rafael’s questions.
Messaging on timing (others are welcome to edit/refine):
1. Public agencies have been the lead providing public L2 charging to the public for decades
214
a. Public agencies fill the market gap, serving communities with charging to support EV adoption for public
good and not for profit
b. We (public agencies) serve a critical role and are necessary to ensure all our communities have access to
EV technologies
2. We operate much more public charging than accounted for the impact analysis
3. A short compliance timeline would be an unfunded mandate
4. Without an extension to this timeline, local agencies like ours may be forced to close public EVSE, due to the
unfunded mandates that an accelerated timeline would create, reducing public opportunities for EV charging.
a. This requirement would cause significant financial hardship to public agencies that have served as
key early owners and operators of EV charging infrastructure
b. Many agencies do not have available funds for EVSE for EVSE compliance
c. Many of our chargers were installed with grant dollars, and we generally don’t have dedicated funding
to upgrade them
d. We would have to remove or close chargers, where we can’t find other funds to bring them into
compliance
e. Public dollars are tight with competing objectives
f. Existing chargers are generally still operational – still within their useful life, but we’d have to replace
them early
g. The impact of the short compliance timeline would be counter‐productive
h. Agencies would not be able to bring all public L2 charging into compliance easily or readily
i. So, we would end up closing or removing L2 chargers, thereby blocking “open” access within our
communities
5. A five-year compliance timeline would be counter-productive to the goals of the proposed
standard. It would result in the removal of existing infrastructure before the end of its useful life
and unintentionally disincentivize or delay local agencies that were early adopters from installing
chargers to avoid disproportionate compliance costs. Extending the compliance timeframe is a
critical revision to ensure public agencies are able to have an ongoing role in providing public L2
charging in their communities
Opposition to the timeline, from what I’ve heard: generally charging advocates like Plug in America and some on the
Board, who don’t understand why compliance should take so long. They want open access charging available for the
public sooner.
If anyone wants to discuss, I can be available this afternoon – happy to put an optional call on the calendar for any that
want to discuss. Just let me know.

Hi again everyone – just an update, I’ve heard that opposition to the extended timeline is expected on
Thursday and not all Board members think it’s necessary. It will be very important for comments to be
strong on the timeline issue and why it’s important to public agencies. For anyone that can attend on
Thursday, I think it will really help us make our case.

Our letter is submitted. Harbor Village what's refined based on the smut letter but with more
aggressive recommendation to grandfather existing charging stations and to allow for greater
flexibility on technologies.
I'm offline currently but will circulate letter tomorrow. The letter was largely consistent with the
version I previously circulated. Joe Weidman our director of Regulatory Affairs will be at the hearing
Thursday to provide comment.

Subject: SB454 Follow‐Up
Importance: High
Thanks for a good discussion to those on the call. Here is follow up – NOTE: comment letters are due
to CARB by midnight on Monday, 6/24. The Thursday Board meeting to adopt regs is expected to be
contentious, so it’s important for agencies to submit comment letters, and/or attend the Board
meeting if you can. More resources are below, including a link to submit comment letters.
I am sharing a draft letter as a starting point. Feel free to use this to customize for your key issues if
you are submitting a letter. We will further customize for our Sacramento comment letter. Thank you
Jessie for your edits!
Folks can contact me with questions.
A. UPDATE FROM CARB
I am attaching an email I just received from Elise Keddie with CARB, summarizing the edits they will
propose to the Board during the meeting on Thursday. *Note – I am attaching for your reference as
you prepare comments, but please do not distribute widely.
220
They have included the critical update – extending the compliance timeline to the time of EVSE
replacement, but no later than July 1 ,2033.
B. SUMMARY OF ISSUES DISCUSSED BY AGENCIES
Here is a recap of the various issues raised by folks on the call yesterday. As discussed, each of our
agencies have varying degrees of priority or concern across the list. These notes provide a recap of
the discussion, rather than identify consensus:
1. Unique role of the public agency
a. Analysis underestimates the extent of public charging and impacts resulting from
compliance– analysis focuses on LCFS, which undercounts hundreds of chargers
b. Regs pose impacts to local governments that are engaged in deploying infrastructure
on behalf of our communities
c. Pubic agencies have been the entities to provide deployment in absence of the
private market
d. Resources would need to be diverted from expanding charging access to retrofits
and compliance
e. Desire for standardization, but the question is what it means for public agencies that
own and operate chargers
2. Compliance timeline
a. Critical that timeline gets extended from 5 to 10 years
b. Reporting begins 45 days effective from data of regulation – concern it’s too quick
c. Reporting onus should be on the network provider
3. Reporting
a. ARB is anticipated to require aggregated reporting by transaction type
b. More challenging when owner uses multiple network companies (LA may use 4, and
will test more)
c. Reports should be kept simple and align with LCFS
d. Statutory language on reporting is much simpler
e. If EVSE is grant‐funded, agencies are already reporting
f. Agencies with lots of EVSE and numerous networks are harder hit by the regulation –
reporting will be more challenging. Probably easier and more feasible for agencies
with fewer chargers or network companies. Either way, it will require staff time.
4. Any money that goes into retrofits and compliance is money that can’t be invested in
expanding the EV charging network
5. Technology will become dated quickly
221
a. ISO 15118, allowing cars to talk to chargers: technology is coming and Maven is doing
now.. Would not be allowed based on these regs.
b. Requires hard wiring a tech solution that will get out of date – not a long‐term
solution
c. Regs preclude innovative solutions – for example, many agencies have invested in
innovative parking technology apps that could also be used for charging payment
d. Desire for payment to be universal
e. Credit cards add a lot of cost
6. Retrofits may trigger ADA compliance
7. CALeVIP alignment – regs should grandfather or exempt CALeVIP chargers
a. More coordination needed between CARB and CEC
b. Right now, the eligible equipment for Sacramento CAleVIP program does not meet
regulation requirements
8. Important to flag the actual number of L2 operated by public agencies, which was
undercounted in the analysis of impacts to local governments

Thank you Chris, that multi‐family construction guide looks helpful.
My main questions pertain to Monterey Bay power:
1. Assuming the city is getting all their power from MB before our first close of escrow, but PG&E is still the current
provider and owner of current infrastructure, do I still go through PG&E to set up our electric backbone
infrastructure or should MB be involved? PG&E will remain responsible for the physical components of the grid.
2. What can we expect the power bill to be assuming consumption is going to rise? (maybe addressed in the guide
package or best addressed to MB?) I apologize for not being more clear. JR is a representative from Monterey
Bay Community Power and he is aware that you may be reaching out (I should note, I wanted to give you a
direct contact for transparency, but if you’d like me to work with JR to answer your questions, I’m happy to do
so).

Is JR Killigrew a representative for MB power? Yes, sorry I wasn’t more clear.

1. I was going to connect you with Mike Horgan (Cc’d), but it sounds like you met with already. Hopefully
he was a useful resource.
2. We are continuing discussions with Monterey Bay Community Power regarding rebates/subsidies for all
electric multi family and/or affordable housing units. They won’t know have their 2020 programs
officially in place, but it sounds very promising. I’m including JR Killigrew as a Cc to this email. I’ll
continue to interact with him on program development, but you should feel free to reach out directly re:
the potential program, and in response to your question below.
3. I’m not sure if this is helpful, but Redwood Energy (one of the better known all electric energy

know its quality, but perhaps there is some information in there that can be helpful.
How else can I help?

Subject: SLR all electric
Good afternoon Chris,
Thank you again for your time the other day. We are really looking forward to continuing to work with the city to bring
forth a project that we are all proud of.
As requested, here is our expected additional cost per unit to go all electric.
SFR Condo
Item Description Additional Cost Additional Cost
Rough Electric Five 220‐volt wiring $ 1,000.00 $ 850.00
Range* Free standing induction range $ 1,700.00 $ 700.00
225
Pots Cook ware for induction appliances $ 200.00 $ 100.00
Drier Electric clothes drier $ 400.00 $ 400.00
Water Heater Tank‐less electric water heater $ 400.00 $ 250.00
FAU Electric heat pump $ 2,000.00 $ 1,500.00
Gas Piping Non‐installation of internal gas lines $ (1,000.00) $ (700.00)
Fire Place Non‐installation of fire place $ (1,000.00) $ ‐
Grand Total $ 3,700.00 $ 3,100.00
*Appliance costs increases if we install separate electric wall oven and induction cook‐top.
One of my big unknowns is how the heat pump is to function in the SFR units. Any information‐ or leads to suppliers‐ you
can provide for the electric heat pumps will be appreciated.
A question that I have is in regards to the electric bill. I’m not sure how Monterey Bay Power structures their bills but I
know PG&E is a tiered system, meaning the more power you use the higher the unit cost is. Going all electric is going to
raise the energy (power) consumption per dwelling unit. Under PG&E billing this would likely bump up a homeowner to
a higher tier and their bill would raise significantly‐ not just from the increased usage but also being in a higher tier. How
will all electric homes affect the electric bills in the city of San Luis Obispo with Monterey Bay Power? Natural gas is
relatively cheap. It might be an issue if we expect the electric bill to double or triple…
You mentioned that there could be a potential for Monterey Bay Power to offer us an incentive. That (any amount)
would be helpful. If provided an incentive, we would be willing to market (advertise) them as “partners”. I think it would
also be very helpful if they and/or the city can produce literature showing what the expected utility bill would be by
going all electric (assuming it is not going to increase drastically).
Thank you,

Thanks for the edits.
If both SLO & MB could send any additional stakeholder names/contact info by the EOD of this week, that would be
great. From there I can circulate a final draft to any final comments and then we can share with SLO/MB leadership if
that works.
I have a scheduled presentation to SLO city council on 9/3. How about a presentation in September?

Speaking of key stakeholders, how do City staff interact in a coordinated way with your staff? I am hopeful that
there will be a steering committee or some other body made up of staff for projects like the electrification plan,
especially since we will be the ones implementing them in our community. Let me know, thanks!

Sent: Monday, June 24, 2019 3:24 PM
Subject: FEEDBACK NEEDED: PG&E Rate Design Proposal
Transit Agency Members in the PG&E Service Territory:
Late last year, PG&E submitted a new Commercial Electric Vehicle (CEV) rate design proposal to the PUC to encourage
the deployment of medium‐ and heavy‐duty electric vehicles, including battery‐electric buses (see attached). This
proposal is now being evaluated by the PUC in Application 18‐11‐003. A decision on the proposal is expected in
September 2019.
In advancing this proposal, PG&E noted that “the charging fuel cost barrier remains for transit fleets in PG&E’s service
territory and was highlighted in comments by the California Transit Association throughout the SB 350 proceeding and in
the ICT rulemaking.”
PG&E asserted that this new rate design, if approved by the PUC, will reduce the cost of operating battery‐electric
buses by 30% compared to today’s rates, reducing the cost of electricity as a fuel to below the cost of diesel.
PG&E designed the proposed CEV Rates with two components: a monthly “subscription charge” based on the
customer’s connected charging load, and a TOU energy charge to account for volumetric consumption. PG&E proposes
two rates, based on the size of customers’ connected charging load:
EV‐Small: Connected charging load of 100 kW and under; and
EV‐Large: Connected charging load above 100 kW.
The rate designs are described below:
231
Subscription Charge: The subscription charge will be based on a customer’s connected charging load, providing greater
simplicity and consistency in costs to customers, compared to the demand charges they face today. The subscription
charge allows customers to plan on a single monthly amount based on their charging installation, which would only be
increased if the customer installs additional charging at the site. Like subscription pricing models for cellphone plans,
customers will be able to elect for a lower plan level if they can manage their load below that chosen amount, and
would incur an overage if they exceed that amount. This optionality also encourages customers to pursue load
management strategies to lower their subscription charge costs. This pricing model should also be familiar and
understandable to customers. The subscription charge is also significantly lower, on an equivalent per‐kW basis,
compared to existing demand charges, allowing EV charging sites with low utilization to access more favorable average
prices than current rates. PG&E intends to allow customers to revisit their subscription level for the next billing period
throughout the year, within reasonable limits of PG&E’s billing and customer service systems. PG&E will allow new
customers on these EV rate schedules a short grace period (for example three months) to determine an appropriate
subscription level without incurring overage charges, should they exceed their subscription. This structure should, for
many customer types, help improve the EV business case and lower average fuel costs for electricity.
TOU Volumetric Charge: The TOU periods proposed will deliver straightforward price signals to customers, encouraging
EV charging with lower prices at times when generation costs are lower and there is generally sufficient capacity on
PG&E’s electric system, and discouraging charging at times when costs are high and the system is more constrained.
Unlike current C&I rate designs, the TOU periods are consistent year‐round, seven days per week. This creates a simpler
price signal for EV customers to manage their charging load around. The seasonal consistency is more akin to the
relatively consistent gasoline or diesel fuel costs with which these customers are familiar—and with which the CEV rates
are compared when evaluating the purchase of an EV vs. a traditional‐fuel vehicle.
Peak Period: PG&E set the peak period hours for the CEV rate from 4 p.m. – 10 p.m., all days, year‐round. Given
that many EV charging use‐cases are more flexible and price responsive than home or building loads, it is
reasonable to expect these customers to delay charging one additional hour compared to the 4 p.m. – 9 p.m.
peak‐period in business rates approved in D.18‐08‐013.
SOP Period: PG&E set a SOP period from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m., all days of 16 the week, year round. This should
encourage customers to charge EVs when there are higher levels of renewable energy in the generation supply,
aligning with Pub. Util. Code Sections 740.12 and 740.8. On hot summer days, the SOP also acts as an
inducement to charge before temperatures rise and air conditioning loads start ramping up in the mid
afternoon. Finally, this lowest‐cost period may encourage installation of on‐site battery storage to shift peak
consumption to the SOP.
Off‐Peak: All other hours each day would be off‐peak, from midnight to 9 a.m., 2 p.m. – 4 p.m., and 10 p.m. to
midnight. These hours are intended to provide customers with access to extended low‐cost charging times and
encourage charging when there is typically capacity on the electric system. While fairly simple, these TOU
volumetric charges will allow customers to reduce costs through charging management technologies or
energy storage. For those that seek even more dynamic price signals, demand response programs provide an
additional layer that more sophisticated customers can access.
Please refer to pages 2‐6 to 2‐14 of the attached for more details on the proposal.
At the direction of the Association’s ZEB Task Force, we will be submitting comments to the PUC on the rate design to
ensure it best supports our transit electrification efforts. If your agency has done any analysis of the rate proposal and
has any findings, concerns, or recommendations, please share those with me no later than Tuesday, 7/2.
We will be filing comments on Monday, 7/8.
Thanks,

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the introduction to Jason and Aaron. Currently, MBCP does match the NEMA rate via PG&E but per the rules,
systems can’t be sized past 80‐90% so there isn’t net surplus compensation. Ultimately, the net amount of generation
you pull from the grid MBCP will either have at minimum 5% rebate or a discount generation rate via our cost plus
model.
I hope this helps and happy to find some time to discuss more. I’m copying Lina Williams, our Manager of Energy

If both SLO & MB could send any additional stakeholder names/contact info by the EOD of this week, that would be
great. From there I can circulate a final draft to any final comments and then we can share with SLO/MB leadership if
that works.
I have a scheduled presentation to SLO city council on 9/3. How about a presentation in September?

I think a 30 minute convo every two weeks is appropriate at this point. And I am available at 3 or 4pm next Tuesday.

Good morning, Brandon –
I’m writing with another request to please complete your Form 700, AB1234 ethics training, and W9 (please find
attached email) at your most earliest convenience. Should you continue to experience a delay completing these
necessary forms, please let me know as soon as possible. Now that you are officially participating on the CAC and
receiving a stipend it’s imperative you complete the forms for our records. Should you have questions, please feel free
to contact me. Thank you much for your expedited response to this email.

Hi Brandon,
I hope you are well. I’m writing to ask that you please complete your Form 700 filing and provide me with an Ethics
certificate with no less than 2 hours of training as soon as possible. Attached also is a schedule of the CAC meetings.
I will also need to swear you in prior to you participating on the board. Will you be at the June 20 meeting in person or
via WebEx? If you will participate remotely then I can do your Oath of Office over the phone. Let me know at your
earliest convenience. Thank you!

Subject: CAC Appointment Requirements: Form 700 & AB1234 Ethics Training
Hi Brandon,
Per previous email, I’m writing to let you know of your requirement to file a Form 700 and AB1234 Ethics Training
Certificate with me. Please keep in mind that you will not be official appointed until you are approved by the Policy
Board on June 5; your Form 700 and Ethics Training certificate should be completed after this date but before your June
20 CAC meeting. Prior to attending your June 20 CAC meeting I’ll also need to give you an oath of office so that you can
begin participating in meetings.
For your Form 700 filing, please log into the eDisclosure website and use your email address (brandono@live.com) as
your Username. You should have also received a couple of emails from “MBCP Form 700 Filings” letting you know of this
requirement. One of the emails should include a temporary password. If for some reason you did not receive that email
(please also check your SPAM or Junk email boxes) you can click on the “Forgot Password?” link under the login section
250
in the upper left hand corner of the eDisclosure website to have the temporary password re‐sent. You’ll then have an
opportunity to replace that temporary password with a unique password that you can establish yourself.
For your AB1234 Ethics Training certificate. Please go to the FPPC website training, create an account and take your
training. AB1234 Ethics Training requires that you complete a full 2‐hours of training. Unfortunately the FPPC website
training does not monitor your time online so you’ll need to keep track. Most people can get through the training in
about 35‐45 minutes so take your time while answering the questions. If I receive a certificate from you with under 2
hours of training I’ll ask that you provide me with a supplemental training certificate for the remainder of the time.
Feel free to contact me should you have questions or need any assistance with filing your Form 700 or taking your Ethics
Training.
Great to have you onboard and looking forward to meeting you soon.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the introduction to Jason and Aaron. Currently, MBCP does match the NEMA rate via PG&E but per the rules,
systems can’t be sized past 80‐90% so there isn’t net surplus compensation. Ultimately, the net amount of generation
you pull from the grid MBCP will either have at minimum 5% rebate or a discount generation rate via our cost plus
model.
I hope this helps and happy to find some time to discuss more. I’m copying Lina Williams, our Manager of Energy
Account Services.

Hi J.R.,
Hope you are well. I am writing to connect you with Jason Meeks and Aaron Floyd from our Utilities division.
They are engaged in an SST project with PG&E and Southland Energy looking at some ground mounted solar
using NEM or NEMA at our water treatment plant (located in unincorporated county). To ensure they are
making an informed decision, I am wondering if someone on your staff can help them understand what their
NEM/NEMA rate might be in 2021, and if there is anything else they should be thinking about should the
County move forward with MBCP. You and your team’s help is greatly appreciated!

Hi JR,
We are unable to hear or participate in the meeting, and although it works sometimes, this is not the first time

Hi J.R.,
I hope your meetings were successful yesterday. Wanted to share the email below, looks like we’ll be looking
for some time to get on the phone to work with a key developer. I think I’ve said this before, but if we can help
Jacob be successful, our electrification efforts will move forward much more smoothly.
Also, should we re-establish our regular check-ins? I assume we’re getting close to you guys hiring the two
staff to help with launch down here, etc.
Cheers, thanks for all you do!

Chris

Thank you Chris, that multi‐family construction guide looks helpful.
My main questions pertain to Monterey Bay power:
1. Assuming the city is getting all their power from MB before our first close of escrow, but PG&E is still the current
provider and owner of current infrastructure, do I still go through PG&E to set up our electric backbone
infrastructure or should MB be involved? PG&E will remain responsible for the physical components of the grid.
2. What can we expect the power bill to be assuming consumption is going to rise? (maybe addressed in the guide
package or best addressed to MB?) I apologize for not being more clear. JR is a representative from Monterey
Bay Community Power and he is aware that you may be reaching out (I should note, I wanted to give you a
direct contact for transparency, but if you’d like me to work with JR to answer your questions, I’m happy to do
so).
Is JR Killigrew a representative for MB power? Yes, sorry I wasn’t more clear.

Hi Jacob,
Thank you again for your patience. A couple of things:
1. I was going to connect you with Mike Horgan (Cc’d), but it sounds like you met with already. Hopefully
he was a useful resource.
2. We are continuing discussions with Monterey Bay Community Power regarding rebates/subsidies for all
electric multi family and/or affordable housing units. They won’t know have their 2020 programs
262
officially in place, but it sounds very promising. I’m including JR Killigrew as a Cc to this email. I’ll
continue to interact with him on program development, but you should feel free to reach out directly re:
the potential program, and in response to your question below.
3. I’m not sure if this is helpful, but Redwood Energy (one of the better known all electric energy
consultants in the state) just issues a multifamily construction guide. I haven’t reviewed it enough to
know its quality, but perhaps there is some information in there that can be helpful.
How else can I help?

Good afternoon Chris,
Thank you again for your time the other day. We are really looking forward to continuing to work with the city to bring
forth a project that we are all proud of.
As requested, here is our expected additional cost per unit to go all electric.
SFR Condo
Item Description Additional Cost Additional Cost
Rough Electric Five 220‐volt wiring $ 1,000.00 $ 850.00
Range* Free standing induction range $ 1,700.00 $ 700.00
Pots Cook ware for induction appliances $ 200.00 $ 100.00
Drier Electric clothes drier $ 400.00 $ 400.00
Water Heater Tank‐less electric water heater $ 400.00 $ 250.00
FAU Electric heat pump $ 2,000.00 $ 1,500.00
Gas Piping Non‐installation of internal gas lines $ (1,000.00) $ (700.00)
Fire Place Non‐installation of fire place $ (1,000.00) $ ‐
Grand Total $ 3,700.00 $ 3,100.00
*Appliance costs increases if we install separate electric wall oven and induction cook‐top.
One of my big unknowns is how the heat pump is to function in the SFR units. Any information‐ or leads to suppliers‐ you
can provide for the electric heat pumps will be appreciated.
A question that I have is in regards to the electric bill. I’m not sure how Monterey Bay Power structures their bills but I
know PG&E is a tiered system, meaning the more power you use the higher the unit cost is. Going all electric is going to
raise the energy (power) consumption per dwelling unit. Under PG&E billing this would likely bump up a homeowner to
a higher tier and their bill would raise significantly‐ not just from the increased usage but also being in a higher tier. How
will all electric homes affect the electric bills in the city of San Luis Obispo with Monterey Bay Power? Natural gas is
relatively cheap. It might be an issue if we expect the electric bill to double or triple…
You mentioned that there could be a potential for Monterey Bay Power to offer us an incentive. That (any amount)
would be helpful. If provided an incentive, we would be willing to market (advertise) them as “partners”. I think it would
also be very helpful if they and/or the city can produce literature showing what the expected utility bill would be by
going all electric (assuming it is not going to increase drastically).
264
Thank you,

Subject:RE: SLR all electric
Thank you Chris, that multi‐family construction guide looks helpful.
My main questions pertain to Monterey Bay power:
1. Assuming the city is getting all their power from MB before our first close of escrow, but PG&E is still the current
provider and owner of current infrastructure, do I still go through PG&E to set up our electric backbone
infrastructure or should MB be involved?
2. What can we expect the power bill to be assuming consumption is going to rise? (maybe addressed in the guide
package or best addressed to MB?)
Is JR Killigrew a representative for MB power?

Hi Jacob,
Thank you again for your patience. A couple of things:
1. I was going to connect you with Mike Horgan (Cc’d), but it sounds like you met with already. Hopefully
he was a useful resource.
2. We are continuing discussions with Monterey Bay Community Power regarding rebates/subsidies for all
electric multi family and/or affordable housing units. They won’t know have their 2020 programs
officially in place, but it sounds very promising. I’m including JR Killigrew as a Cc to this email. I’ll
continue to interact with him on program development, but you should feel free to reach out directly re:
the potential program, and in response to your question below.
3. I’m not sure if this is helpful, but Redwood Energy (one of the better known all electric energy
consultants in the state) just issues a multifamily construction guide. I haven’t reviewed it enough to
know its quality, but perhaps there is some information in there that can be helpful.
How else can I help?
Best,

Good afternoon Chris,
Thank you again for your time the other day. We are really looking forward to continuing to work with the city to bring
forth a project that we are all proud of.
As requested, here is our expected additional cost per unit to go all electric.
SFR Condo
Item Description Additional Cost Additional Cost
Rough Electric Five 220‐volt wiring $ 1,000.00 $ 850.00
Range* Free standing induction range $ 1,700.00 $ 700.00
Pots Cook ware for induction appliances $ 200.00 $ 100.00
Drier Electric clothes drier $ 400.00 $ 400.00
Water Heater Tank‐less electric water heater $ 400.00 $ 250.00
FAU Electric heat pump $ 2,000.00 $ 1,500.00
Gas Piping Non‐installation of internal gas lines $ (1,000.00) $ (700.00)
Fire Place Non‐installation of fire place $ (1,000.00) $ ‐
Grand Total $ 3,700.00 $ 3,100.00
*Appliance costs increases if we install separate electric wall oven and induction cook‐top.
One of my big unknowns is how the heat pump is to function in the SFR units. Any information‐ or leads to suppliers‐ you
can provide for the electric heat pumps will be appreciated.
A question that I have is in regards to the electric bill. I’m not sure how Monterey Bay Power structures their bills but I
know PG&E is a tiered system, meaning the more power you use the higher the unit cost is. Going all electric is going to
raise the energy (power) consumption per dwelling unit. Under PG&E billing this would likely bump up a homeowner to
a higher tier and their bill would raise significantly‐ not just from the increased usage but also being in a higher tier. How
will all electric homes affect the electric bills in the city of San Luis Obispo with Monterey Bay Power? Natural gas is
relatively cheap. It might be an issue if we expect the electric bill to double or triple…
You mentioned that there could be a potential for Monterey Bay Power to offer us an incentive. That (any amount)
would be helpful. If provided an incentive, we would be willing to market (advertise) them as “partners”. I think it would
also be very helpful if they and/or the city can produce literature showing what the expected utility bill would be by
going all electric (assuming it is not going to increase drastically).
Thank you,

They are engaged in an SST project with PG&E and Southland Energy looking at some ground mounted solar

Hi Bren,
Brandon may be away from email (he is currently summitting Mr. Rainier!). He will be attending in person. This
first one will note be remotely hosted, but we may look to do so in the future.

Importance: High
Hi Brandon –
I’m writing to inquire about attendance to your first CAC meeting. Will you be attending in person or remotely?
I’m asking because I’m posting our agenda today and need to know if the remote location at City of SLO will be available
to members of the public and/or if you’ll be participating from that location so that I have it listed on the agenda.
Please provide your feedback as soon as possible this morning. Thank you!
