The new Advisor organizations will focus on reaching underserved communities which may lack the staff or resources to achieve their solar energy goals. Selected through a competitive application process, SolSmart Advisors provide intensive assistance on solar energy to select communities for up to seven months.
“With their local knowledge and technical expertise, SolSmart Advisors have been essential to the success of this program,” said Theresa Perry, Program Director at the Interstate Renewable Energy Council (IREC). “We are very excited to welcome these new Advisors and partners, particularly to help extend the benefits of solar energy to underserved communities.”
SolSmart is led by IREC and the International City/County Management Association (ICMA), and funded by the U.S. Department of Energy Solar Energy Technologies Office. The four organizations selected to serve as SolSmart-funded Advisors include:

A handful of other poles throughout the park feature the same setup: the base attached to a pole with no camera.
So what happened to the cameras?
Councilwoman Catherine Kent and Evelyn Hobson-Womack, two Democrats running for election in November, said the town has failed to get the system up and running after two years.
