UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING <br />TO: FROM: <br />ERMU Commission Tony Mauren – Governance & Communications Manager <br />MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: <br />March 11, 2025 6.1d <br />SUBJECT: <br />Staff Update <br />ACTION REQUESTED: <br />None <br />DISCUSSION: <br />The bill inserts for March 2025 include the attached spring 2025 edition of The Current <br />newsletter sent to all customers and an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) project <br />notice sent to residential customers. The reminderencourages those who still need to <br />schedule a water meter replacement to do so and lets all customers know that electric <br />meter replacements are continuing. Also attached is a running list of the <br />communications that have been disseminated as part of the AMI project. <br /> In addition to the bill insert topic, social media posts this month feature the commission <br />meeting notice, the benefits of SmartHub, HVAC rebate opportunities, information <br />about ERMU crews participating in American Public Power Association’s Lineworkers <br />Rodeo, and more. <br /> This month members of the State Records Retention Task Force chose research topics to <br />pursue and bring results back to the group for updates to the General Records Retention <br />Schedule for Minnesota Cities. I will be researching potential updates to public safety <br />records retention and assessing specific state statutes’ impact on the schedule. <br /> I will be attending the Minnesota Clerks & Finance Officers Association annual <br />conference, March 19-21 in Brooklyn Center. <br /> Staff is asking commissioners to please keep an eye on their email as they plan to send <br />the link for the general manager performance evaluation the day after this meeting. <br />Thank you for completing this (recently shortened) survey by the end of the month so <br />we can move on to commissioner performance evaluation which will be sent as a link on <br />April 1. Staff appreciates your timely response to these surveys as it makes it possible to <br />carefully compile and present the data. <br /> <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br /> Bill Insert – The Current – Spring 2025 <br /> Bill Insert – AMI Water Meter Exchange Appointment Reminder <br /> AMI Communications Timeline 2023-2025 <br />______________________________________________________________________________ <br />Page 1 of 1 <br />140 <br /> <br />
