The discussion, which focuses on incentives for conservation, is available until June 30. In the discussion, the City will ask:  If the City offered a financial incentive for conservation, such as water conservation, solar panels, etc., would you take advantage of such a program? Why or why not?  What types of upgrades should be incented?  What type of incentive program would you support? For example, low-interest loans, property assessments, rebates or refunds, or something else.  How would you propose such a program be funded? In May, the City gathered feedback on the Edina Senior Center. Questions posted ranged from whether or not residents are Senior Center members, or if they would join the Senior Center when they become of eligible age; what they think the future of the Senior Center is and what kind of recreation opportunities should be offered. Findings from this discussion will be presented to the City Council June 17. To weigh in on this month’s discussion, visit www.SpeakUpEdina.org. -30-
