City of Brea
“As we were preparing the Brea Energy Efficiency and Solar Power Project the concept of “Green Life, Green Brea” evolved organically. How appropriate! Realizing that as impressive and far-reaching that one big project might be, particularly at that moment in time, there was still going to be more to accomplish later.” -Brea City Manager, Tim O’Donnell
