County sponsors clean energy program As of March 25, Montgomery County is moving forward on creating its rst Property Assessed Clean Energy program, a state initiative aimed at encouraging commer- cial property owners to fund energy- and water-conserving infrastructure. What we know Lee McCormick, founder and president of Lone Star PACE, presented the request to commissioners on March 25 as a program administration company. The company would act as a liaison service between the county and commercial property owners to apply for long-term loans to upgrade energy and water infra- structure such as heating, ventilation and air conditioning system upgrades.
Montgomery County commissioners authorized the renaming of the incoming South Montgomery County Library and Community Center to honor longtime former U.S. Rep. Kevin Brady. Some context The library was previously named the “Heroes of Montgomery County Library” on Nov. 5 by James Noack, the previous Precinct 3 commissioner. However, current Precinct 3 Commissioner Ritch Wheeler formed a library naming committee to in January, selecting the Kevin Brady Library and Community Center. “To say that [Kevin Brady] represents Mont- gomery County is an understatement—and more specically, South Montgomery County,” Wheeler said. “We kept coming back time and time again to the name Kevin Brady.”
The 48,000-square-foot center will have a ballroom, 11 rentable study rooms and a conference room.
