This office is staffed by the Energy Management Administrator and an Energy Specialist and is located in the Department of Public Work’s Division of Facilities Management. Outside of monitoring city energy usage, the Energy Office also finds new ways for the city to save money on energy bills as well as become more energy efficient. ​
