Condition c. Expected remaining useful life d. Compliance with existing code 2) Work with City staff to identify the future needs at the various buildings to determine if the existing generator(s) meet those needs 3) Identify solutions based on the needs and current state assessment, including estimated costs for each solution 4) Identify a timeline for improvements or replacements 5) Identify grants or funding opportunities 6) Prepare a final report that documents the findings and site-specific recommendations
