Consumer protection advisory from Alachua County
June 2, 2023
Press release from Alachua County
ALACHUA COUNTY, Fla. – Alachua County residents are advised that there has been no authorized Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) program in Alachua County since August 13, 2021.
The County has been made aware of solicitations received by residents that offer to finance energy efficiency, renewable energy, or wind resistance improvements to a property (such as energy-efficient heating or cooling systems, solar energy systems, or a new roof) to be collected as an assessment on the property tax bill.
The Alachua County Commission has determined that PACE providers do not provide adequate consumer protections.
Funny I had a scammer call today. They couldn’t decide if they were from Florida solutions or Florida Clean Energy company. They would have crews out in my area next week to access my house and give estimates. They have been reported.
