On the Agenda: Energy-Saving Measures in Medford
A look at items on the agenda for Tuesday's city council meeting.
The Medford City Council will consider about $280,000 in proposed energy-saving measures during it's meeting Tuesday night.
Mayor Michael McGlynn has submitted a request to the council to move $170,000 from the city's real estate account to fund the projects, which will receive about two-thirds funding through incentive programs, according to the request.
The work would include weatherizing doors and windows at Medford High School, as well as ventilation work at the school, along with lighting at City Hall and the high school.
