Why aren Marin communities working to create a CCA with jurisdictions outside of Marin County?
There is no reason why Marin communities can’t join with other jurisdictions in the future. Logistically, however, it would be difficult to involve more than the communities within Marin County in the investigation and business planning. The initial and ongoing analysis has been conducted for Marin’s jurisdictions using customer data specifically for Marin’s communities. Other communities in the state investigating CCAs also are in different phases of work. Marin has collaborated with other local governments at the CPUC and through Navigant on initial phases of the analysis. The joint powers agreement can permit other jurisdictions to join MCE and can allow collaboration with other CCAs on power supply and operations.
