Page 3 <br /> Regular meeting of the Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission <br /> October 14,2008 <br /> Jerry Takle said Lori Johnson has offered to meet with staff at the Elk River power plant to <br /> answer questions at 7:00 am.Wednesday,October 15,2008. <br /> Jeny Gumphrey remarked that the investigation will rectify problems,if any,and they'll do <br /> what's best for the organization. <br /> Lorne Franz voiced her concerns regarding problems being brought directly to the <br /> commission instead of through management,saying it gives a picture of the commission <br /> undermining management. <br /> Jerry Takle wanted to reinforce work safety,and to follow safety rules. "We want everyone to <br /> go home every night." We will work through this and get input if needed. <br /> Lorrie Franz asked about the status of the investigation. <br /> Sam Diehl responded the status of the investigation is ongoing and the laws restrict what <br /> information can be shared. <br /> Theresa Slominski questioned if Bryan is unavailable,who is responsible in the interim. John <br /> Dietz responded the department heads should meet and take care of things and can also <br /> consult with Lori Johnson if necessary. <br /> Art Gatchell asked if there was a possible date of conclusion. Jeny Gumphrey responded they <br /> will do whatever is necessary to finish this in a timely manner however,it is important to <br /> make sure all the is are dotted and the is are crossed. <br /> 5.1 Staff Updates <br /> Theresa Slominski reminded the Commission of the Cold Weather Rule going in to effect <br /> starting October 15d'. The inserts going out with the October bills will be heat share assistance <br /> forms. The ACH mailing was positively received and produced approximately 340 sign-ups. <br /> Given the economic times Theresa wanted the commission to know the investment funds for <br /> Elk River Municipal Utilities remain sound. <br /> David Berg said a student from St.Cloud Tech will be training with a water operator and <br /> observing the day to day workings. This is a learning experience for the student with no pay <br /> involved. Staff continues removing irrigation meters along with updating map books. There <br /> was sufficient water pressure for the apartment fire on School Street,a total of one million <br /> gallons of water was used. <br /> Mark Fuchs reported the three phase line along County Road 39 in Otsego is complete. <br /> The Deerfield 1st and 2nd rebuild project is still in progress with hopes of finishing it before <br /> frost. Other projects trying to get finished before the frost sets are the Hwy 169 road bore for <br /> Station 14,the Waterfront East project in Otsego along with moving some power poles to <br /> satisfy the temporary easement. <br /> Troy Adams reported 11 Security Sales for September. There were over 40 letters sent <br /> out to customers that utilize another security system company for monitoring. This has <br /> brought several new accounts to us. Staff continues working on the map book updates. <br /> Underground locates are slowing down. The meter shop continues with the meter upgrades <br /> along with taking oil samples to send for testing. <br />
