Everything reviewed was excellent or outstanding what a great compliment <br />to the accounting work done throughout the year! The actual 2019 audit is scheduled for <br />Thursday and Friday, February 27-28, 2020. <br /> <br /> NISC will be here January 21-23, 2020 to provide user training for Mobile Workforce and <br />AppSuite. Users will be trained on completing service order workflows in an NISC test data <br />environment. The live date for implementation will be February 4, 2020. <br /> <br /> We have been doing cycled inventory counts weekly throughout 2019 for the electric <br />department. With the final count done in December, we have a discrepancy of $747 for the <br />year, out of valued inventory of approximately $936,000 for a .08% discrepancy total. The water <br />department is at 0% discrepancy. Kudos to everyone for that success! <br /> <br /> In preparation for new employer requirements for the Commercial Drivers License (CDL) , there <br />has been some time dedicated to registering with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety <br />Administration (FMCSA) and getting everything set up for compliance in 2020. Minnesota <br />Municipal Utilities Association (MMUA) has been helpful with providing information for this new <br />requirement. <br /> <br /> ERMU staff will be meeting with Dave Berg Consulting on January 8 to begin our rate study now <br />that we are with our new power provider. Staff has been gathering and preparing information <br />needed for this study. <br /> <br /> <br />______________________________________________________________________________ <br />Page 1 of 1 <br />168 <br />
