Page 2 <br /> Regular meeting of the Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission <br /> November 14, 2000 <br /> The Resolution of Intent to support the project at the Elk River Landfill for converting <br /> landfill gas to electric energy is recommended by the Waste Management Advisory Committee and <br /> is expected to be passed at the next Sherburne County Board of Commissioners Meeting. <br /> James Tralle moved to execute the Letter of Intent with Waste Management, with minor <br /> wording changes if necessary. George Zabee seconded the motion. Motion carried 3-0. <br /> Debra Dehn and Dave Lucas were thanked for their appearance, and they exited the <br /> meeting. <br /> 5.1 Review and Consider Award of Electric Line Truck <br /> Bids were received on October 16, 2000 for a 2001 electric line truck. Bryan Adams <br /> recommended accepting the lowest responsive bidder, Dueco, with trade-in. Glenn Sundeen, <br /> presented his reasons for requesting that the Utilities keep the trade-in for a back up truck. He <br /> stated that the Utilities was forced to rent a truck for four months this summer, and that if the truck <br /> were retained, it could keep down time to a minimum, and keep work at a constant level. Bryan <br /> feels that we could better use the trade in dollars, and that it should be traded. John Dietz favors a <br /> trade-in; he does not feel the truck would be utilized enough to keep. <br /> James Tralle moved to accept the lowest responsive bidder, Dueco, without trade-in. <br /> George Zabee seconded the motion. <br /> Further discussion of the pros and cons of a trade-in,with comments from Staff and <br /> Commission ensued. George Zabee reviewed the considerations once again. <br /> Motion failed 1-2. James Tralle voting aye, George Zabee and John Dietz voting nae. <br /> James Tralle moved to accept the lowest responsive bidder, Dueco, with trade-in. George <br /> Zabee seconded the motion. Motion carried 3-0. <br /> 5.2 Review and Consider Water Rates for 2001 <br /> Staff reviewed water rates comparisons with other communities, options, income <br /> projections, and a revision of the Water Economic Development Incentive Rate. Staff recommends <br /> a water rate increase, with the suggestion that Summer/Winter unit rates will need to be considered <br /> at a future point in time. Staff further noted that the Option 1 was used in the water income <br /> projections, and that it indicates water cash reserves are adequate. Staff and Commission discussed <br /> the presentations. <br /> George Zabee moved to approve Option 1 Water Rate Revision, effective 1-1-2001. James <br /> Tralle seconded the motion. Motion carried 3-0. <br /> Bryan Adams explained how the change in the Water Rate Revision will affect the Water <br /> Economic Development Rate. <br />
