/ SPOTLIGHT on Kevin Greene Ï Section Two The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, September 25,1985 11 Former Students of Starkville S.S. 10 Gather for Reunion Kevin Greene, the energy auditor for the Town of.Newcastle, started his new job on September 9 and will be spending the year reviewing the municipality's municipality's energy needs. His recommendations could save the town between 10 and 20 per cent in future fuel costs. The town's newest municipal municipal employee is responsible responsible for seeing that the taxpayers' taxpayers' dollars don't go out the windows, doors and walls through wasted energy.

A new building, properly designed could use 90 per cent of the energy required by a conventional structure. But Mr. Greene notes that a business decision must be made when deciding whether it's wise to spend the additional costs to produce produce the required energy savings. Indeed, it will be up to town council to review his recommendations for energy efficiency and decide decide which measures should be taken to save money for the town and the taxpayer. There are some energy efficiency efficiency efforts which require require no capital outlet and can be accomplished immediately. immediately.
