The
Louisville Metro Office of Sustainability is pleased to announce the launch of
its Cool Roof Rebate Program, providing rebates to property owners of $1 per
square foot of cool roof installed, with a goal of incentivizing at least
100,000 square feet of cool roofs. Buildings located in Metro Council Districts
1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 12, 14 and 15 are identified as high heat island areas based on
the Urban Heat Management Study (2016), and will receive at least 60% of the
available funding. Applications will be accepted beginning on March 20, 2017
and the program will continue until funds are depleted.
To
apply for rebates from the Office of Sustainability’s Cool Roof Rebate Program,
applicants should complete the online application or email a completed
application along with a completed W-9 to sustainability@louisvilleky.gov.
The Office of Sustainability’s cool roof incentive funds are available on a
first-come first-served basis. Applications may be submitted before the project
is completed, but funds will not be dispersed until project completion.
 If
you're 16 to 21 years old, you can get a quality job this summer through
Summerworks. It's an opportunity to earn a paycheck, but even more importantly,
you'll get valuable business experience that could shape your future education

already learning in school. We work to cultivate Louisville’s young talent by
preparing and connecting youth to summer jobs and other work-based learning
opportunities. Our vision is that all Louisville young adults possess the
skills and attributes that lead to lifelong career success. Youth
