Elk River <br /> Municipal Utilities UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING <br /> TO: FROM: <br /> Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission Eric Volk-Water Superintendent <br /> John Dietz—Chair <br /> Al Nadeau—Vice Chair <br /> Daryl Thompson—Trustee <br /> MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: <br /> May 12, 2015 5.4 <br /> SUBJECT: <br /> ERMU Field Services Facilities Study <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> In the 2015 annual budget, the amount of$200,000 was approved for facilities improvements at <br /> the field services building. At the direction of the utilities commission, we started to look for <br /> ways to secure our property and move all of our equipment indoors. The first two steps we need <br /> to look at are building a driveway for our neighbors to the east, and what facilities we will need <br /> to satisfy our storage requirements. <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> We have started seeking proposals from architects for a space needs study. The study will help <br /> us to decide what we will need in the future. Once the study is complete we'll have the <br /> information to help determine the steps we'll want to take. <br /> After we come to an agreement, we will have the property to the east surveyed and plans <br /> developed for installing the new driveway. We have already discussed our plans with the City of <br /> Elk River's Environmental Technician, and she is willing to work with us so we stay compliant <br /> with the wetland restrictions. <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: <br /> None <br /> rOWEDED DY <br /> Page 1 of 1 NATURE <br /> Reliable Public <br /> Power Provider P O W E R E D T o S E R V E <br /> 77 <br />
