Subject: FREE Light Bulb Exchange at the Energy Outlet! 




The Energy Outlet, Michigan?s first energy efficiency store, is celebrating its first anniversary by hosting a Free CFL Light Bulb Exchange starting TODAY, July 1, through Friday, July 30. Anyone who brings in incandescent light bulbs can exchange them for energy-efficient compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) for free, up to 10 per person! 

Thanks to a generous donation from the Washtenaw County Weatherization Program ( http://www.ewashtenaw.org/weatherization ), the Energy Outlet is encouraging the public to increase their use of energy efficient light bulbs. Replacing energy-hogging incandescent bulbs with energy-saving CFLs is a simple, cost-effective way to slow the rate of global climate change while saving money on utility bills. 

CFL Light Bulb Facts (from www.EnergyStar.gov website): 

? An ENERGY STAR qualified CFL will save about $30 over its lifetime and pay for itself in about 6 months. It uses 75 percent less energy and lasts about 10 times longer than an incandescent bulb. 


? If every American home replaced just one light with an ENERGY STAR light, we would save enough energy to light more than 3 million homes for a year, about $700 million in annual energy costs, and prevent 9 billion pounds of greenhouse gas emissions per year, equivalent to the emissions of about 800,000 cars. 

Guidelines for the Free Light Bulb Exchange: 

? Each free CFL light bulb is available ONLY in exchange for each incandescent light bulb, up to 10 per person 

? Free CFLs include 13W, 19W, and 23W light levels, which are comparable to 60W, 75W, and 100W incandescent bulbs, subject to availability 

? Free CFLs are spiral, screw-in, standard base bulbs 

? Recycling & Mercury Information Sheets will be distributed with the CFL bulbs 

Located at 44 East Cross St. in Ypsilanti (next to Caf? Luwak), the Energy Outlet is open Monday through Friday from 12 to 5 pm. To learn more about the Energy Outlet, visit www.energyoutlet.org , contact Deb Heed at deb at cec-mi.org , or call (734) 483-9000. 
Come in and celebrate with us this month! 


Best, 
Deb Heed

Residential Area Fire Hydrant Parking Ticketing Taking Place

Just so everyone is aware, the parking enforcement service the City of
Ypsilanti uses has begun going around residential areas, even on weekends,
and ticketing any vehicle parked within 15 feet of a fire hydrant. Some
residents have commented that they have lived on their residential streets
for nearly 30 years and never seen such enforcement before. The fine? $50
and all legal under Michigan Vehicle Code section 257.674.(1).

Is any interested in going to the CoPAC meeting on behalf of the PPNA? I'll be attending but it would be good to introduce someone else to CoPAC.

Subject: Ypsilanti Water Street Trail Building Volunteers Needed - August 14th
Message-ID: <AANLkTimU9qzvh-0CRUcsuN2QhVg4HKcDOwPsgZksBg7f@mail.gmail.com>

Volunteers are needed to build a temporary trail though the Water Street
development area in Ypsilanti on Saturday, August 14th. This temporary trail
would follow the scenic north shore of the Huron River from the Michigan
Avenue bridge and eventually end at Park Street.  While not technically a
part of the Washtenaw County Border To Border Trail, this temporary trail
would roughly follow the alignment of a more permanent (i.e. asphalt) trail
when it is eventually constructed through the Water Street area in the
coming years.



Work on the temporary Water Street trail is scheduled to take place after
the demolition of buildings in the Water Street development area. The first
workday on the first phase of the temporary trail is scheduled for Saturday,
August 14, 2010, with volunteers very much needed that day (no experience
needed!). Planned shifts are from 8am to 11am, and 11am to 2pm. To volunteer
for the building of the Water Street Trail, please contact Andy at
waterstreetparkypsi at gmail.com or call Bob at 734-487-9058. Volunteers should
meet up at the east end of the Michigan Avenue bridge across the Huron
River, just east of downtown Ypsilanti on August 14th.



For more information on the Water Street Trail (which is completely a
volunteer effort), please visit www.bordertoborder.org and click on the
?Ypsi Water Street Project? link or visit the ?The Water Street Trail
Project? on Facebook.
