ENERGY MANAGEMENT CONSERVATION POLICY
Approved by Board of Education 10/25/05
As the School Board of the Jamestown City School District, we believe it to be our responsibility to ensure that every effort is made to conserve energy and natural resources while exercising sound financial management.
The implementation of this policy is the joint responsibility of the board members, administrators, teachers, support personnel and students and its success is based on cooperation at all levels.
The principal will be accountable for energy management on his/her campus with energy audits being conducted and conservation program outlines being updated. Judicious use of the various energy systems of each campus will be the joint responsibility of the principal, head building custodian and the operations and maintenance staff. They will cooperative work to ensure that an efficient energy posture is maintained on a daily basis.
To ensure the overall success of the energy management program, the following mission statement is adopted:
All district personnel will be expected to contribute to energy efficiency in our district. Every person will be expected to be an “energy saver” as well as an “energy consumer”.
Further, to maintain a safer and healthier learning environment and to complement the energy management program, the district shall develop and implement a preventative maintenance and monitoring plan for its facilities and systems, including HVAC, building envelope and moisture management.
