Expansion of MISEC services requires board action

For more than a decade the Michigan Schools Energy Cooperative (MISEC) has been performing energy management services for more than 250 K-12 school districts.  As the energy market remains volatile MISEC continues to seek improvements in the methods of procuring the lowest cost energy for your district.  
 
To allow for timely expansion of program offerings, the MISEC Interlocal agreement must be amended.  During the week of June 21st, all MISEC member districts received a letter along with the 1st amendment to the Interlocal agreement.  This amendment provides for expanded member services, including a Diesel Fuel Program (DFP), and a more efficient method of governance.  It is requested that your district’s board of education consider and act on the amendment as soon as possible.
 
The objective of the DFP is to introduce more predictability into a school district’s diesel fuel expenditures by implementing a process that will allow MISEC to offer members a long-term, fixed price on a portion of diesel fuel requirements. Utilizing this program, members will be able to exercise better control over the price of diesel fuel, which allows for better forecasting and planning.  This program is one of the most effective steps a district can take to control its diesel fuel costs.
 
If you have any questions or your district is not a member of MISEC and would like to join, please contact Doug McCall at 517-913-2155/ dmccall@middlecities.org or Jan Rogers at 888-345-0440, ext 26/ Jan.Rogers@Summitenergy.com
