them with this much needed preventive maintenance work at minimal investment of time and no <br />materials or equipment cost. When the Utilities purchased this equipment a few years ago our <br />locator / bore rig operator Jeff Murray had taken on the work associated with performing the <br />infrared camera testing, analyzing the test results, and preparing a comprehensive report. He has <br />done a great job with this added opportunity and deserves recognition for the added valued this <br />has brought to our customers and now also the City. <br />In addition to the formal bidding process for the 69kV substation transformer, I've been working <br />on ordering other components for upgrades to Substations: 69kV breaker and battery bank at <br />north; 69kV circuit switcher, battery bank at Waco. These components have very long lead <br />times and need to be ordered now for us to be able to complete the work this fall. <br />The annual General Manager Performance Evaluation is scheduled for the April Utilities <br />Commission meeting. The evaluation is conducted during a closed meeting pursuant to <br />Minnesota Statute. In the past this evaluation has be conducted as a 360° review soliciting <br />feedback from the direct reports and the Utilities Commission. In addition, the City <br />Administrator has provided feedback. I believe this process has worked well. Unless there is <br />different direction desired by the Commission, I'll distribute the evaluation forms as done in the <br />past. <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />• Star Tribune article by David Shaffer: "Boulder sees upside if Colorado city breaks from <br />Xcel Energy" — February 22, 2013 <br />• American Public Power Association — Public Power Daily article: `Boulder report finds <br />city could dramatically reduce greenhouse gases, keep rates flat, by forming a city -owned <br />utility" — March 4, 2013 <br />• Star Tribune article by David Shaffer: "Crowd- funding for solar power" — January 12, <br />2013 <br />• Governing article by Liz Farmer: "Muni Bond Tax Exemption Repeal Could Spike <br />Borrowing Costs by 50 %" — February 28, 2013 <br />• <br />• <br />Rlu P 8 V E R I I I1 • <br />F, Page 2 of 2 NATURij <br />Reliable Reliable PublicF <br />Power Provider P 0 WE a e❑ To S e a v r <br />
