Councilmember Arkin requested support for placing the Net Energy metering issue resolution on the agenda. She reported EBCE will be voting on the proposals in the next month, so their time is of the essence. Councilmember Narum advised it will not be voted on at the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) until next year to wait for a decision coming out of the courts on December 10. EBCE was opposing legislation that affected solar and that legislation was put into a two-year cycle. She advised they had planned to oppose the legislation, see what the CPUC put forward, and take a position at that point. She advised at the last meeting there was agreement by the board to come back with the resolution around the Net Energy Metering (NEM) 3.0. She would like to see what they come back with at the board meeting in two weeks for their resolution and if it passes then the City Council can review it.
