Magic Mike XXL's Perfectly Sculpted Gay Pandering
The original Magic Mike was one of the most memorable moviegoing experiences of my life. However, it's not the film itself—which, despite an admirable attempt to mix light commentary on the decline of the white working class with slick striptease sequences, was still mostly candy—that sticks in my mind. It's the context of seeing the film I hold on to: A small group of gay friends and I picked the gayest theater we could think of (an off-brand cinema in New York's Chelsea neighborhood), got liquored up on girly drinks beforehand, and giggled with delight when, as we stepped off the escalator on the mezzanine, we saw that the theater had hired go-go boys to add festivity to the opening night. Throughout all this, there was a sense that we were doing something slightly transgressive—turning a movie that was ostensibly for straight women into one of the gayest events of the year.
That gay men are an equally enthusiastic audience for Channing Tatum's smooth moves and Joe Manganiello's Adonis-like (though, sadly here, shaven) musculature seems to have dawned on the production team behind Magic Mike XXL, the charming sequel out this week. In fact, the film, which follows the temporarily reassembled stripper crew on a journey from Tampa, Florida, to a convention in Myrtle Beach, aka the "Redneck Riviera," is surprisingly deferential to its gay viewership—so much so that the first third largely depends on a drag show and its glittery wake for dramatic material. Of course, drag isn't what most gay men are coming to this movie to see; the draw is more along the lines of the glorious sighting of Manganiello's ass that comes about five minutes in or the campy gas station scene where the same man douses himself in Cheetos and water to make a dowdy cashier smile. (Not to mention bawdy lines like, "There was a giant hole inside of me that's full again.") But the drag scene is a more explicit nod to gay culture than these, and a wise one, in that it manages to pander just the right amount.
A Libertarian Professor's Incomprehensible, Inaccurate, Embarrassing Critique of Obergefell
Richard Epstein is a beloved theorist among libertarian conservatives, an advocate for the complete dismantlement of virtually every progressive reform and New Deal program of the last century. On Monday, Epstein also cast his lot with the social conservatives who have decided that marriage equality presents a dire threat to their religious liberty. His criticism of the Supreme Court's decision in Obergefell v. Hodges is meant to be a smoke signal to social and libertarian conservatives that they must join forces to combat gay persecution of Christians. It is an absolute embarrassment, an unintelligible, inaccurate broadside that tries—and fails—to pass off intolerant hand-waving as serious intellectual concern.
Epstein begins by disputing the legitimacy of Obergefell, claiming that same-sex relationships "undercut" the "social imperative" to have children. He states that "historically," government prohibition of same-sex conduct has "found a constitutional home." These allegedly "ancient roots" of anti-gay sodomy bans, Epstein says, form the basis of Bowers v. Hardwick—"whose historical accuracy remains unquestioned."
Unquestioned? It has been debunked.
Here Are Some Catholics Who Feel Oppressed By Same-Sex Marriage
A group called Catholic Vote has made a video. It is a PSA video about marriage and how the Catholics in the video know what marriage is. They know it is not gay. They know they are sad because other people, important people, have now said it can be gay.
They think that pretending this is a video about "coming out" before revealing their true purpose is clever and profound. They are wrong. It is offensive and stupid. They think that saying they have gay friends will protect them from criticism. They are wrong. I will criticize them, at the very least, for being bad friends. They think that they are being persecuted. They are not. In fact, they have no idea what actual persecution feels like. But sure, let's "break down all these barriers"—maudlin sanctimony is best treated with fresh air and a dose of perspective.

The Girl Scouts Support Trans Girls, Even When It Costs
We've known the Girl Scouts of the USA are awesome on transgender issues since at least this past May, when the organization rejected criticisms from the Christian right regarding its national guidance on encouraging transgender girls to participate.* At the time, a spokeswoman for the group put it succinctly: "We don't serve our critics. We are proud to serve all girls."
The Girl Scouts are in the news again, and this time, they've backed up their commitment to trans issues with money—the losing of it, to be exact. According to Seattle Metropolitan Magazine, the Girl Scouts of Western Washington were recently forced to return a $100,000 donation when the donor stipulated that the money not be used to support transgender scouts. "Please guarantee that our gift will not be used to support transgender girls," a letter from the donor read. "If you can't, please return the money." Given that the cash represented about a quarter of the group's annual fundraising goal, turning it down undoubtedly hurt. But, according to CEO Megan Ferland, the decision wasn't hard: "Girl Scouts is for every girl, and every girl should have the opportunity to be a Girl Scout if she wants to," she told the magazine.
Luckily, the story has a happy ending. Ferland went to the Indiegogo crowdfunding platform for help making up the deficit, and the response they received was huge—as of this writing, the campaign has earned more than $260,000, far surpassing the original retracted gift. An update to the page reads: "Thank you for sending the loud and clear message that Girl Scouts is for EVERY girl!"
*Correction, July 2, 2015: This post orignally misstated the proper name of the Girl Scouts of the USA.

Bobby Jindal's Religious Liberty Executive Order Is Probably Illegal, Definitely Anti-Gay
On Tuesday, Louisiana civil liberties groups filed a lawsuit against Gov. Bobby Jindal's recent "Marriage and Conscience" executive order, which allowed businesses and government employees to refuse service to gay couples. The order, these groups claim, exceeds Jindal's power under the Louisiana constitution. Jindal's executive order named a certain class of people—marriage equality opponents—and granted them a special right to discriminate against gay couples. But the Louisiana constitution doesn't authorize the governor to impose a substantive right by executive order. Jindal's "Marriage and Conscience" order should thus be rendered invalid.
It's hard not to feel a little sympathy for Jindal here. As the lawsuit notes, the state constitution is designed to prevent the governor from usurping legislative functions—namely, making laws. Had Jindal claimed his order was merely an interpretation of already existing legal principles, he might've gotten away with it. Instead, the governor issued his order soon after the legislature failed to pass a nearly identical measure. Jindal then declared that his order was designed to "accomplish the intent" of the bill. He didn't just revive a failed piece of legislation through executive fiat. He bragged about it.
As I explained in May, Jindal's willingness to legislate from the governor's mansion is especially galling in light of his criticism of the president:
Jindal has been a vituperative critic of President Barack Obama's executive orders, especially his order deferring deportation for many undocumented immigrants. In a press release, Jindal castigated Obama for "bypassing Congress" and "ignoring the American people," slamming the order as "an arrogant, cynical political move." Jindal seemed to be keenly concerned that Obama imposed his policy preference by executive fiat rather than allowing the people, through their elected representatives, to have their say. Now, though, the people's representatives have firmly rejected Jindal's bill—and rather than persuading the legislature to reconsider the measure, Jindal has simply imposed it by executive decree.
By the way, Obama's immigration executive orders are actually materially different from Jindal's anti-gay one. Through those orders, Obama simply instructed the Department of Homeland Security to defer deporting the parents of American citizens and lawful permanent residents. Why is he allowed to do that? Because Congress gave him permission to do so. Federal law explicitly directs DHS to establish such "national immigration enforcement policies and priorities," thereby granting the president discretion over deportation policies. Far from seizing legislative authority, Obama is just following Congress' directive. That's how an executive leads without breaking the law. Jindal should take note.

The Thing President Obama Didn't Do That Helped Bring About Marriage Equality
When the Supreme Court handed down its decision in King v. Burwell, the health care case, last Thursday, there was no end of talk about how the court had just cemented a critical part of President Barack Obama's legacy. But the health care decision wasn't the only one that will rightly be considered an important part of Obama's legacy. The other is marriage equality—and not only because of what the president did, but also because of what he didn't do.
Obama made headlines in 2012 when he revealed that his opinion on marriage equality had "evol[ved]" and that he now supported it. (Vice President Joe Biden may have helped speed along the president's public evolution when he announced a few days earlier that he was "absolutely comfortable" with the idea of marriage equality and that gay and lesbian couples "are entitled to the same exact rights" as heterosexual couples.) This was a huge moment, and the president and vice president both deserved the considerable credit they received for making their support for marriage equality public. Even though their views surely reflected what was then an ongoing shift in public opinion, their announced support likely helped continue the move toward greater support for marriage equality. Indeed, by the time the Supreme Court heard oral argument in the marriage equality case in April, support for marriage equality was at a record high.
But that's not the only reason Obama deserves some of the credit for last week's decision in Obergefell v. Hodges (along with the justices who reached it, the marriage equality advocates who've been fighting for this day for decades, and the Framers of the 14th Amendment who embedded a commitment to equality and liberty in our Constitution). Another reason Obama deserves some of the credit is because of a decision he made the year before he announced his support for marriage equality: the decision not to defend in court a key provision of the federal Defense of Marriage Act, which defined marriage as the union of a man and a woman for purposes of federal law. Because of that provision, same-sex couples who were legally married under their state's law still couldn't enjoy the numerous and important federal benefits enjoyed by other married couples.
Two Clerks Resigned to Avoid Issuing Gay Marriage Licenses. Good for Them!
Following the Supreme Court's ruling that every state in America must grant marriage licenses to gay couples, at least two clerks tasked with issuing such licenses have resigned—one in Mississippi, one in Arkansas. Both will undoubtedly be chastised by the LGBTQ community for their blatant display of homophobia. But I think these clerks should be praised for their integrity. In other states, clerks are begging for a special right to discriminate against gays. At least these two had the courage to admit that their prejudice prevented them from honoring their oath of office.
The first clerk, Dana Guffey of Cleburne County, Arkansas, announced her resignation when she realized the court's ruling would require her to fill out paperwork officially recognizing same-sex couples' marriages. "It is definitely a moral conviction for me," Guffey said.
Some Suggested Lyrics for Stonewall, the Musical
When it was announced last year that openly gay director Roland Emmerich—of Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow fame—would be helming a film covering the Stonewall riots, some observers sounded a note of … concern. Perhaps the flashpoint of the modern LGBTQ civil rights movement was not ideal material for an artist who seems to prize world-ending disasters over small-scale defiance? Nevertheless, the production has continued apace, and today we've been granted the first stills from the set.
An initial reaction here at Outward HQ: Good god, Emmerich has turned Stonewall into a musical.
What follows is an edited version of our internal conversation regarding the stills, which, as you'll see, quickly turns into a very productive brainstorm of lyrics for the show. Roland, you know where we can be reached!
Bryan Lowder: But for real, why does this look like a musical? I am concerned. It's like a cheaper Rent, which is not a good thing.
June Thomas: Just the words "Roland Emmerich" in close proximity to Stonewall are kind of problematic. Also, major American Horror Story vibe. Like, are some of those homeless kids actually zombies?
Lowder: Gay, mafia-supporting zombies … in a musical. Wait, let's write the songs!
Thomas: That guy's got an amazing butt/ If only I hadn't gotten a disease from the filthy glasses in the/ STONE-waaaaaal! (I guess, strictly speaking, Stonewall should rhyme with ball.)
Lowder: Here's a song title: "Burying Judy, Unearthing Resolve." Our drinks are watered down/ but I won't sport a frown/ instead I'll shake my ass/ except when coppers pass
Thomas: MAFIA BARMAN: I hate these effin' 'mos/ Why don't they wear appropriate clothes/ We have to pay off the fuzz/ Good job the drinks are too weak to give off a buzz (Super-complicated music playing, hence the wordiness and APPARENTLY non-working rhyme scheme.)
Lowder: I want the mafia bar man to have an unexpected emotional arc.
Thomas: But that guy in the Mod Squad dress/ And the Judy Garland tress/ He's kind of a loner/ But he gives me a boner
Lowder: Uh oh, here comes the Village Voice reporter: Up in my office, having a smoke/ look out the window, think it's a joke/ the fags are all fighting, who woulda thunk?/ there's one in heels! that boy-girl's got spunk!
Thomas: High prices, bad hygiene/ But the men—oh, hey, hi Gene!
Lowder: This is a guaranteed hit.

John Roberts' Gay Marriage Dissent Is Wrong About Polygamy—and the Constitution
In his wide-ranging dissent in the Supreme Court's landmark ruling on same-sex marriage, Chief Justice John Roberts set out a simple proposition: "If same-sex marriage, then polygamy." Indeed, the chief argues boldly that it would have been less of a stretch if the Supreme Court had embraced not same-sex but plural marriage, declaring, "[F]rom the standpoint of history and tradition, a leap from opposite-sex marriage to same-sex marriage is much greater than one from a two-person union to plural unions, which have deep roots in some cultures around the world. If the majority is willing to take the big leap, it is hard to see how it can say no to the shorter one."
The chief justice is on to something important that goes to the heart of the constitutional controversies that now swirl around traditional marriage, monogamy, and same-sex marriage. Elsewhere in Slate, William Saletan says Roberts is wrong to link same-sex marriage with polygamy, but from the perspective of the constitutional vision defended by the chief justice, polygamy is indeed far easier to swallow than same-sex marriage. From the point of view of an alternative framework that Justice Anthony Kennedy seems to accept, however, same-sex marriage and polygamy appear in very different lights, with the one contributing to and the other undermining the Constitution's core commitment to equal liberty.
The problem, in other words, lies not only in Roberts' flawed description of marriage and its history—though he does err there—but rather in his approach to interpreting the Constitution. Only by seeing this can we appreciate why the court's same-sex marriage decision strengthens marriage as a constitutional matter.
Istanbul's Gay Pride Parade Broken Up by Police
Over the weekend, thousands of jubilant marchers poured onto the streets of many major cities, including San Francisco, New York, and London, to celebrate pride month and the Supreme Court's recent legalization of same-sex marriage throughout the United States. Things were considerably less joyous at the annual pride parade in Turkey's most populous city, which was cut short when the police used aggressive force to break up the gathering.
As Quartz reports, "For more than a decade, the Turkish city of Istanbul has held one of the most visible gay-pride events in the Muslim world." This year, the government denied permission to the organizers since the parade coincided with the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
While the police claimed to have use proportional force, they fired tear gas, rubber bullets, and water cannons to disperse participants. This episode is the latest in a series of alleged incidents of police brutality under President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and is reminiscent of the 2013 Gezi Park protests. Amnesty International accused Turkey of committing human rights violations in their brutal treatment of the Gezi protestors.

Latest 'Truck Trike' has bike designer reaching new Stites (Photos)
With a clean footprint (wheelprint?) and a design that ranges somewhere between arty and functional, Bill Stites' "Truck Trikes" could be just the ticket for forward-thinking Portland business customers.
Stites, who's releasing the third version of his Truck Trikes this month, is looking to amp production of the units as word gets out about the Trikes' many utilities. The Trikes are propelled by both human power and an electric motor, depending on the incline, and can haul 600 pounds despite weighing just 250 pounds themselves.
Pedal power: Take a closer look at the Truck Trike
The Trikes represent, essentially, a new class of vehicle that fills a gap between bikes and cars.
"Number one, it's in a class that weighs between 200 and 300 pounds that, number two, is powered by humans and electricity," said Stites. "Number three, it has three wheels and, number four, it can haul two to three times what it weighs. That's the kicker: It carries far more payload than the vehicle's weight."
Stites Design has been designing and building small vehicles for 20 years. Along with its current Truck Trikes, the company has more planned vehicles in its design pipeline.
The company is located in Portland's Central Eastside Industrial District. Which is fitting because Stites' Truck Trikes seem custom-made for the Central Eastside Industrial District: They can carry up to 600 pounds and are easy to maneuver in crowded areas.
Stites, a member in good standing of Portland's bike-making community, is also pushing the items for municipalities and universities that need to transport goods short distances. The Truck Trikes can also serve as point-of-sale conduits for, say, selling coffee or ice cream.
The Trikes feature a front-wheel drive pedaling system that uses the company's patented Stites Hub, which courses the human pedal power to the front wheel. The system helps provide high maneuverability in tight places. The Truck Trike's BMC brand electric motor is available in either one or both rear wheels.
A separated drivetrain also allows riders to use one mode — either electric or human-powered — at a time, or mix them at any proportion, which helps better regulate the battery use. Stites also constructed a hand-built tubular steel frame and added motorcycle rear brakes that deploy rotors and calipers that allow riders to make quicker stops even when lugging hundreds of pounds of cargo.
Plus, the units use no fossil fuels and emit no harmful fumes.
Click through the gallery above for a closer look — featuring shots from ace photographer Mark Gamba — at the newest version of Stites' Truck Trike.

Police K-9s in Maine to receive protective vests
By Duke Harrington
SOUTH PORTLAND, Maine — The newest member of the South Portland Police Department is getting some special equipment to go along with his graduation from training last week.

I basically want to achieve what a RadioButtonList does, without using that control (i.e. keep the radio buttons separate.). So I dragged two regular RadioButton (not lists) controls into the page. Both radio buttons are set to AutoPostback=true.
I tried using the following two event handlers:
protected void radio1_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
radio2.Checked = false;
protected void radio2_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
radio1.Checked = false;
So what I expect is, if radio1 is clicked by the user, radio2 should uncheck. This doesn't happen. There's no error or anything. I stepped through and found that indeed upon selection of one of the radio buttons, the event DOES fire. And it changes the .Checked status of the other radio button to false. However, visually on the page, both radio buttons are still checked. (Seems like a postback issue, I know, but it's not that).
The reason I can't use a RadioButtonList control is that, given other options on the page, I need to disable certain radio button choices. For example, choosing Item A in a dropdown list disables radio1 so it's not even a choice, but choosing Item B again re-enables radio1, and disables radio2.

LFN 2009-10 June 12, 2009 Contact Information Contracting for Renewable Energy Services: Director's Office Update on Power Purchase Agreements V. 609.292.6613 Since Local Finance Notice 2008-20 was issued in December of 2008, there F. 609.292.9073 have been several changes regarding the contracting for renewable energy Local Government Research through power purchase agreements (PPA). One of the important actions is V. 609.292.6110 the release of the Board of Public Utilities (BPU) Guidelines for Public Entity F. 609.292.9073 Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy Cost Savings Guidelines. Financial Regulation This Notice covers the newly released BPU Power Purchase Guidelines, PPA and Assistance procurement procedures, a review of issues that must be addressed in V. 609.292.4806 preparing renewable energy RFPs, and issues specifically related to boards of F. 609.984.7388 education and PPAs. Local Finance Board Power Purchase Agreements Generally V. 609.292.0479 F. 609.633.6243 P.L. 2008, c.83 made amendments to the length of contracts sections of the Local Public Contracts Law (LPCL), the Public School Contracts Law Local Management Services (PSCL), and the County College Contracts Law by providing the following V. 609.292.7842 length of contracts provisions: F. 609.633.6243 The provision or performance of goods or services for the purpose Authority Regulation of producing class I renewable energy, as that term is defined in V. 609.984.0132 section 3 of P.L.1999, c.23 (C.48:3-51), at, or adjacent to, buildings F. 609.984.7388 owned by any <type of contracting unit>, the entire price of which is to be established as a percentage of the resultant savings in energy Mail and Delivery costs, for a term not to exceed 15 years; provided, however, that 101 South Broad St. these contracts shall be entered into only subject to and in PO Box 803 accordance with guidelines promulgated by the Board of Public Trenton, New Jersey Utilities establishing a methodology for computing energy cost 08625-0803 savings and energy generation costs. Web: www.nj.gov/dca/lgs E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com This section authorizes contracts of up to 15 years with private vendors for "power purchase agreements." These are programs where the contracting unit Distribution procures a contract for, in most cases, a private vendor to install, maintain, and Municipal and Freeholder own solar panels, in exchange for the contracting unit purchasing the power Clerks generated by the solar panels at agreed upon formula driven rates. The same School Business Officials principle can be applied to other Class I renewable energy sources, such as Local Procurement Officials windmills, geothermal systems, and similar renewable power sources. Chief Financial Officers Local Authority and Fire District Commissioners Local Finance Notice 2009-10 June 12, 2009 Page 2 This provision does not apply when a contracting unit authorizes debt or uses other capital resources to directly procure the renewable system that it will own outright. In those cases, the contracting unit's procurement law will dictate procurement and financing policies. Government agencies fall under the incentive programs of the BPU's Clean Energy Commercial/ Industrial Program, that may also provide other incentives that can result in lower costs or improved energy efficiency. All local initiatives to use renewable energy or improve energy efficiency should carefully review and evaluate options available under the program. BPU Power Purchase Guidelines The law also requires that PPA contracts are subject to "guidelines promulgated by the Board of Public Utilities establishing a methodology for computing energy cost savings and energy generation costs." Adopted on February 27, 2009 (and subject to periodic modification), the Board Order and Guidelines for Public Entity Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy Cost Savings Guidelines are posted online and included with the distribution of this Notice. The Guidelines include a document and an Excel worksheet to assist in the calculations. The technical nature of the material warrants review and implementation by individuals familiar with energy savings calculations. To further assist local units, the Board and Division of Local Government Services are developing model documents that can be used as a Request for Proposals and a summary of elements to be considered in a RFP. Copies of presentations from recent seminars are also online on the Office of Clean Energy website. Power Purchase Agreement Contracting Procedures For many years, the LPCL and PSCL provided that power purchase type agreements were entered into through competitive contracting, although authorized under what became obsolete language authorizing energy savings contracts. The recent adoption of P.L. 2009, c.4, Energy Savings Improvement Programs (ESIP), in addition to reforming the way energy contracts that "pay for themselves" (See Local Finance Notice 2009-11), repealed the obsolete LPCL and PSCL language noted above. In doing so, the ESIP law unintentionally eliminated the basis for competitive contracting for power purchase agreements. Pursuant to the competitive contracting laws under the LPCL [N.J.S.A. 40A:11-4.1(k)] and PSCL [N.J.S.A. 18A:18A-4.1(k)], the Director of the Division of Local Government Services is authorized to allow competitive contracting for "the operation, management or administration of other services." The contracting laws also allow concessions to be awarded through the competitive contracting process (subsection j of those sections). Power Purchase Agreements can be considered as service contracts or as a concession: a private contractor using the contracting unit's facilities – the roof – to place its panels, provides a benefit to the local unit (reduced electricity rates), and provides private gain to the contractor. Given the nature of power purchase agreements, the Director is authorizing contracts that meet the following definition to be procured and entered into pursuant to competitive contracting (subsections j or k as appropriate) pursuant to the LPCL and PSCL: The provision or performance of goods or services for the purpose of producing class I renewable energy, as that term is defined in section 3 of P.L.1999, c.23 (C.48:3-51), at, or adjacent to, buildings owned by any < type of contracting unit>, the entire price of which is to Local Finance Notice 2009-10 June 12, 2009 Page 3 be established as a percentage of the resultant savings in energy costs; provided, however, that these contracts shall be entered into only subject to and in accordance with guidelines promulgated by the Board of Public Utilities establishing a methodology for computing energy cost savings and energy generation costs. [emphasis added] This language replicates the statutory authorization for 15 year renewable energy contracts. Contracting units shall comply with the competitive contracting process. That process requires that contracts be based on firm proposals submitted by vendors, with an evaluation process guiding the contracting unit's determination of the proposal that is "most advantageous, price and other factors considered." The competitive contracting process does not permit contracts to be negotiated. Contracting officials and industry vendors may not be familiar with competitive contracting and therefore contracting officials should carefully review the relevant statutes (N.J.S.A. 40A:11-4.1 through 4.5 and N.J.S.A. 18A:18A-4.1 through 4.5) and regulations (N.J.A.C. 5:34-4.1 et seq.) as appropriate to their organization. The nature of PPAs also warrants including an engineer or architect familiar with renewable energy systems in the planning process. In considering the criteria to evaluate PPA vendor proposals, the following examples may be useful, given individual circumstances and RFP requirements: The structure and financial terms of the Power Purchase Agreement and responsiveness to RFP financial requirements or considerations History and financial strength of the design/installation firm History and financial strength of the financial/Power Purchase Agreement provider firm Experience of the design/installation firm in completing similar projects Experience of the financial/Power Purchase Agreement provider firm in completing similar projects Knowledge of New Jersey regulations for permitting and construction of renewable energy projects Knowledge of New Jersey renewable energy programs, requirements, regulations, and financial incentives Clarity and conciseness of the submittal Responsiveness and understanding of the scope of work, management of site conditions Renewable energy industry vendors must recognize that renewable energy projects fall under State public works contracting laws, i.e., prevailing wages and Public Works Contractor Registration laws, among others. In addition, as these systems connect to building power systems or the electric grid, laws and regulations concerning electrical contractors also apply. Subcontractors may also fall under these requirements. RFP documents should make it clear that public works contracting laws and rules apply to the work and that contractors are responsible for complying with the appropriate construction trade practices and laws. Renewable Energy Contract Variables Officials should also be aware that when it comes to contracting for renewable energy systems (i.e., solar panels, windmills) through power purchase agreements, there are different circumstances, building and environmental conditions, and pricing options that must be considered. Local Finance Notice 2009-10 June 12, 2009 Page 4 Depending on the specific project, pricing options may be affected by federal tax credits and five-year accelerated depreciation provisions that are available to private businesses. A private company granted a concession to install solar on a government facility can use them to lower the cost of the installation below the cost that could be obtained if the government paid for the improvement itself. In some cases, a PPA vendor may be a company that specializes in financing renewable installations who subcontracts the physical installation work to another company. Further, BPU authorized Renewable Energy Credits (REC) and Solar Renewable Energy Credits (S- REC) are financial instruments that may be available and can be sold to offset energy or construction costs. Other considerations that may be part of a renewable energy power purchase agreement include: Sale of the renewable energy generator (i.e., solar panels) at fair market value or removal of the equipment Calculation of the price for energy and its basis for escalation Maintenance of and any repair of the facility Termination and removal provisions (including potential abandonment or sale of property) Assignment of or change in vendor, including but not limited to considerations for system resale prior to start-up Security and personnel (especially for school projects) Insurance (who covers fires, or other unanticipated circumstances) There are also a variety of technical issues to be considered on a site-by-site basis that can affect the cost (and ultimately the rates) of the work. Utility interface, metering, and power quality reliability Existing capability of the facility's power system and any upgrades that may be necessary, including meeting current electrical code compliance Roof conditions, warranties, and repairs and renovations Of critical importance is the condition of a roof when a PPA involves the placement of solar panels on a contracting unit's roofs. Current and future roofing conditions must be taken into account when planning a solar project. Analysis of structural integrity, condition of roofing material, and impact of any existing roofing warranties must be investigated prior to issuing a PPA RFP and impact results reflected in, or provided as part of the RFP process. For example, a RFP may require the PPA contractor be held responsible for ensuring that any existing roof warranty is not violated by the construction. Some roofs may need to be replaced prior to installation of solar panels. Projects may also require an engineering certification on roof loadings and roof warranty. In many cases, roof repairs or renovations are needed prior to the installation of solar panels. In some cases, a PPA may include roof improvements. For example, an RFP response may require the contractor perform roof repairs or maintenance to support the addition of solar panels. This requires that those costs must be built in to the cost of electricity paid to the contractor. In this case, the PPA works only when the roofing related costs result in pricing to the local unit that does not exceed what the projected cost of energy otherwise available from the grid. If the cost of PPA Local Finance Notice 2009-10 June 12, 2009 Page 5 power, including any roof work exceeds the projected grid rate (i.e., no savings in electricity cost), the roof work must be performed separately from the PPA under normal public works contracting procedures. The competitive contracting process for PPAs does not provide a mechanism to avoid public works contracting requirements or to build long term roof renovation or replacement costs into the cost of electricity so that the cost of energy exceeds what would otherwise be available from the local utility company. To summarize, a PPA may include roof improvements only when the projected cost of the energy otherwise available from the grid is not exceeded by the cost of the PPA power and any roof work. The BPU Guidelines for Public Entity Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy Cost Savings Guidelines must be used to calculate energy savings. To address these and other variables that can be part of a power purchase agreement, RFPs should be carefully researched by the local unit, and the RFP should encourage vendors to submit alternative proposals that can address the contracting unit's needs. Careful evaluation, including application of the BPU Guidelines, is critical to the success of the project. Boards of Education and Power Purchase Agreements In addition to the foregoing issues, because of the oversight of school construction activities by the State Department of Education, the following additional conditions apply to schools entering into PPAs: 1. All plans for PPAs that affect a school building must be incorporated into the school's Long Range Facility Plan and the appropriate filing made with the Department of Education for approval. 2. PPA applications require an engineering certification on roof loadings and roof warranty filed with the application. 3. School debt service aid is not provided for a PPA. Solar panel projects are eligible for debt service aid if the school district purchases and installs the panel through an approved bond referendum. Entering into a PPA for installation of solar panels on a roof does not trigger the requirement that a Board of Education obtain the approval of the Department of Education to "lease" or "rent" a school facility. Conclusion and Additional Information Issues concerning contracting for energy related services are continuing to evolve and will pose challenges to contracting unit officials as the details of the new laws are finalized. The Division continues to partner with the Board of Public Utilities' Office of Clean Energy to work through the issues and provide guidance. Questions concerning contracting issues can be e-mailed to email@example.com. Information and answers to questions concerning BPU Commercial/Industrial programs are best answered through the Office of Clean Energy's contact website. In addition, the Board's Office of the Business Ombudsman may be of assistance.
