Page 2 Regular meeting of the Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission June 9, 1998 James Tralle moved to increase salaries per Staff's Alternate #3 recommendation. The difference between the percentage raises will satisfy current Comparable Worth requirements for the Utilities. George Zabee seconded the motion. Motion carried 2-1. John Dietz voted nae for the reason that he thought all three male Supervisors should be treated the same. A certain employee was discussed with regard to performance, pay equity and salary. James Tralle moved to freeze the salary of the discussed employee, with Staff directed to return to the Commission in six months with a report on the progress of the employee. John Dietz seconded the motion. Motion carried 3-0. The meter reading done by a Contract Meter Reader was discussed and the request by McBrady Meter Reading for an increase in his contract amount considered.

To comply with the Utilities Street Light policies, we would have to move one light to the intersection of Joplin Street and Riverview Drive, and remove one light, leaving only three lights. The residents are aware of this and the majority are in favor of the changeover. The Street Light Committee recommends approval of this request. James Tralle moved to approve the change from Security Lights to Street Lights on the 13000 block of Riverview Drive, as presented by the Street Light Committee. George Zabee seconded the motion. The motion passed 2-0. John Dietz abstained because of a personal interest in the decision. With no other business to discuss, James Tralle moved to adjourn the June 9, 1998 meeting of the Elk River Utilities Commission. John Dietz seconded the motion. Motion carried 3-0.
