Schools Miss Out on Savings

An audit finds school districts missed out on $40-million in energy savings, because of choices made in upgrading facilities. Secretary of State Kate Brown says they tracked money spent on energy upgrades.  “The audit covers 8 years and all of the state's 111 school districts.”  It shows the state should have done a better job setting guidelines for how the money was spent and prioritizing it among districts that would have gained the most from energy savings.
