The Auburn City Council has voted to officially accept a $5,000 NYSERDA grant.
The money was awarded under the Clean Energy Communities program.
Communities that meet certain guidelines in providing clean energy for their residents are eligible for designation as Clean Energy Communities, making them eligible for grants. The more points cities accumulate, the bigger the grants they can receive.
The city has already received the money. Auburn City Clerk Chuck Mason says it will be used for LED lighting at the Slow Sand Filter building at the water filtration plant.
The city of Auburn has completed seven high-impact actions under the program, receiving 2,000 points toward NYSERDA grants. A number of Cayuga County communities are taking part in the program.
