The next Dexter Alternative Energy Committee meeting has been scheduled for Wednesday, March 12 at 1:00 P.M. in the Council Chambers.

Committee Coordinator: Ann Kendall

Meetings are open to the public and comment is encouraged. The Alternative Energy committee's main thrust is to evaluate the town's energy use and its physical resources, including the landfill.

The committee will investigate the potential use of wind power, hydroelectric power, solar, biomass, as well as geothermal energy and how to make realistic and practical changes for the community. Energy audits and finding improvements for existing facilities and vehicles will be part of the committee's efforts.

Committee members hope the town effort will spur local residents and businesses to do the same.
