Take time to better vet this proposal, get questions answered about both economic and environmental issues, and seek alternate proposals that make use of renewable options.

Definitely need more research on this matter. Spending this kind of money without the proper independent evaluation is a total disaster for the city and citizens of Peekskill. Just being told you will be automatically in rolled in the energy program is absolutely crazy! There are our seniors and others that may not understand being thrown into a possible disaster along with the city.
How can they tell the citizens you are automatically in rolled and must opt out. There should be a choice. I truly don’t believe this matter has been properly explained to the residents of Peekskill and it’s long terms affects! I also don’t believe the city knows the long term affects!!

The City Council has a legal and good government responsibility to insure that ANY contract with a private entity, including Honeywell, is in the best interests of its citizens. This is not always the case.
Read, review, understand, and explain to the residents of Peekskill BEFORE you enter into the contract.

Our city is in serious need of fiscal restraint. It would behoove us to have a independent third party to analyze if there are any long term savings versus initial financial investment of this multi million dollar prior to any approval.

Please consider postponing confirmation of this contract until valid concerns of citizens have been addressed. There is no time left to wait on addressing environmental justice. We need to be proactive, not reactive.

Let's wait a month and do some more research about renewable energy sources.

Environmentally, energy upgrades are spot on -- but take the time to do the process right with as many stakeholders as possible.
