Green Ribbon Cutting Ceremony, Pompey Park, April 6th, 7:15 pm - This Green Ribbon Cutting Ceremony will unveil the new Pompey Park outdoor athletic field lighting and solar-powered trash compactors. The "Green" Lighting Project at Pompey Park, 1101 NW 2nd Street, is a sustainable initiative that was funded with federal grant dollars through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG). This project replaced 116 lighting fixtures with 82 new, green fixtures and is expected to result in $15,000 to $20,000 in energy and maintenance cost savings annually (and more than $300,000 over a twenty year period). The solar-powered trash compactors, funded through a private contribution from Waste Management Inc. of Florida, will help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and maintenance costs that will lead to improved City services.
