First Green Bank headquarters facility in Mount Dora LED parking lot lighting provides 80 percent energy savings
EUSTIS, Fla. – When First Green Bank opens its new headquarters facility on U.S. 441 in Mount Dora in October, LED parking lot lights will light up the parking lot while minimizing energy usage and ecological interference and leaving the stars in the night sky visible.
Ken LaRoe, chairman and chief executive officer of First Green Bank, said the new lighting employs quality LED chips with high performance reflectors that provide up to 14,000 lumens of light and are a feature of the energy efficient and environmentally sustainable design of the facility overall.
The parking lot and perimeter of our headquarters is designed to minimize light pollution in an effort to reduce light trespass from the building and the site, reduce sky glow, increase night sky access and reduce the development’s impact on local nocturnal creatures, LaRoe said. Manufactured by LSI Industries in Cincinnati, the lighting system will save a projected 80 percent in energy expenditure over conventional floodlights.
“Our new lighting system will pay for itself in just three years,” LaRoe said.
The lighting system is one of many features in the new bank facility that will earn First Green Bank Lake County’s first commercial construction LEED Platinum designation from the U.S. Green Building Council for energy efficiency, environmental and safety security.

Top Pensacola Company Selected for State Economic Gardening Program
PENSACOLA, Fla. – IMS ExpertServices, an executive search/expert witness firm, was recently selected to receive free technical training from the state-funded GrowFL program, part of the Florida Economic Gardening Institute.
Founded in 1992 by Mike Wein and Bill Wein, IMS ExpertServices began as an interim executive firm focusing on the telecommunications industry. Eight years later, when a former client needed an expert witness, the company began the transition to an “expert search” company, said Mike Wein, who serves as chief executive officer.
“It is an honor to receive this recognition from GrowFL,” Wein said. “This will help us as a growing company to attract high-quality talent and coordinate with other local second-stage companies.”
The GrowFL program was created in 2009 by the Florida Legislature and is based at the University of Central Florida in Orlando. When selecting businesses to participate, members of the Florida Economic Gardening Institute look for companies that have the potential for success, according to Dr. Tom O’Neal, executive director of the Florida Economic Gardening Institute.
GrowFL will support IMS ExpertServices through a number of free services, including access to market research and technology, strategy analysis, CEO roundtables and forums, database research and website optimization.
“IMS ExpertServices is ideal for the program as it’s recognized as the premier expert provider in the legal industry,” said Dr. O’Neal, who also is associate vice president for the University of Central Florida’s Office of Research and Commercialization.
With headquarters in Pensacola, IMS has more than 45 employees, who work from offices in Pensacola, New York City, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Denver and other areas.
IMS provides highly-qualified experts and consultants to the world’s top litigators, which include 97 of the top 100 largest law firms, Wein said. “Our unique search services allow our clients to secure the best expert for their specific needs.”
“Receiving this award is recognition that we provide a valued service to clients who are satisfied with our work,” Wein said. “We hope to continue to grow, hire great people and support our community and we owe it all to our dedicated employees, who consistently deliver on the company promise.”
