Due <br /> to timing of the ERMU Commission meeting, I was unable to attend this annual meeting but <br /> rather participated through conference call. <br /> The Utilities has closed on the 1639 Main Street property. Staff and legal counsel are working to <br /> complete a property management agreement review with a local property management company <br /> by the time of the Utilities Commission meeting. <br /> Staff continues to work with Great River Energy on the security requirements needed to <br /> implement the SCADA system. <br /> After advertising the open Journeyman Lineworker since early October, management looks to <br /> schedule interview the weeks of November 12th and 19`h. The intent is to fill the open position as <br /> soon as possible. <br /> I have been working with City staff to identify water system projects that are eligible to be built <br /> using the City's Water Trunk Funds. These funds were collected from defined areas during their <br /> development for future use to add system capacity serving those areas. Staff had developed a 5 <br /> year forecast of eligible water system projects. <br /> is. PO O EIEI er <br /> Page I of 1 NATURE <br /> Reliable Public <br /> Power Provider PowEeEo To SERIF <br />
