The City of South Miami's Go Green Initiative
The City of South Miami's Go Green Initiative promotes and encourages environmental responsibility in our community.
The City has launched a monumental green initiative, the Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) program, that enables property owners to borrow money to buy solar panels, wind generators, insulation or shutters for their homes. The Green Corridor consists of the following municipalities: South Miami, Coral Gables, Palmetto Bay, Pinecrest, and Cutler Bay.
The City of South Miami was also recently successful in its efforts to gain legislative authority to create a district to provide a Financing Initiative for Renewable and Solar Technology (FIRST).
Essentially, the bill would allow citizens in certain areas to voluntarily opt-in to a program in which the district loans the money to pay the initial cost associated with the installation of an alternative energy-producing device, and then subsequently the property owner would repay the cost over time.
