A
Welcome
to
the
wednesday
july
13
2022
meeting
of
the
burlington
board
of
electric
commissioners.
My
name
is
lori
lemieux
and
I'm
the
board
clerk
for
the
commission.
The
july
meeting
is
the
burlington
electric
commission's
organizational
meeting
and
the
first
quarter
of
business
is
to
elect
officers.
At
this
time.
I
open
the
floor
for
nominations
for
chair
of
the
commission.
A
C
A
A
D
D
D
D
Commissioner
harendi
you
leaned
forward
nope,
okay,
okay,
so
we'll
move
forward
up.
Next,
then,
is
the
minutes
of
the
june
8th
2022
meeting.
If
there
are
substantive
content
related
edits,
that
should
be
noted.
This
is
a
good
time
to
raise
them.
If
it's
just
you
know,
clerical
or
spelling
error,
we
can
address
that
via
email.
D
D
A
Well,
the
only
thing
I
was
going
to
say
was:
I
meant
to
send
an
email
to
jen
green.
I
saw
that
city
of
chicago's
giving
away
free
bikes
as
a
net
zero
energy
thing.
I
don't
know
what
the
uptake
is
on
some
of
the
other
incentives.
But
I
wonder
if
that's
something
to
consider,
I
thought
it
was
interesting:
free,
free,
500,
free
bikes,
that's
a
good
price,
no
they're,
giving
out.
A
G
D
Anything
else,
otherwise
I
have
two
items
nope,
so
one
is
and-
and
we
can
touch
back
on
this
at
the
commissioner's
check-in,
but
one
is
just
to
check
in
with
regards
to
an
august
meeting
years
past.
Sometimes
we
have
not
met,
and
last
year
we
did
meet
still
in
the
middle
of
covid
and
keeping
an
eye
on
the
budget
wondering
from
darren
and
the
crew.
E
We've
planned
around
not
having
an
august
meeting
so
number
of
items
that
you
have
this
evening
more
items
coming
in
september
of
particular
note
the
presentation
of
the
triannial
customer
survey
by
michael
moser
from
uvm
so
triennial,
but
we
haven't
actually
done
it
since
2017
because
of
the
pandemic.
So
it's
been
almost
five
years
and
the
data
is
very
interesting.
So
we'll
have
that
for
you
in
september,
but
we
don't
have
any
planned
items
or
votes
at
this
point
for
august.
D
D
That
essentially
is
a
volunteer
entity
that
sets
the
standards
by
multiple
experts
in
the
field,
and
they
did
not
necessarily
respond
all
that
much
to
our
feedback
or
to
our
questions
of.
When
might
these
standards
be
updated?
Can
you
give
us
some
feedback
as
to
what
what
what
the
most
recent
standard
is?
We
did
connect
with
them
a
little
bit
in
and
andy.
I
might
ask
you
to
fill
in
if
I'm
getting
any
of
this
wrong,
but
please
do
come
up.
D
We
did
get
some
feedback
and
at
the
last
meeting
we
all
heard
that
a
new
set
of
standards
had
been
rolled
out.
That
was
600
plus
pages.
So
at
the
last
meeting
we
said:
okay,
that's
a
lot,
hey
andy
and
your
team
go
back
and
read
it
and
see
if
we
can
make
some
modifications
and
changes
and
we'll
check
back
in
on
this.
In
september.
D
Between
the
last
meeting
and
this
meeting,
we
had
a
couple
of
south
end
counselors
reach
out
to
us
because
they
had
heard
new,
updated
complaints
and
concerns,
and
so
we
had
a
conversation,
commissioner,
herrendin
and
myself.
So
it
was
not
a
quorum
along
with
andy
and
darren
and
paul
and
and
a
few
others
as
well
as
the
two
counselors
and
in
some
we
we
talked
about
essentially
what
we
talked
about
last
month,
except
there
was
a
little
bit
more
discussion
about
what
the
policy
is
that
this
commission
has.
D
You
know
some
jurisdiction
over
in
terms
of
if
we
wanted
to
modify
it
or
change
it.
The
policy
right
now
basically
says
that
we
will
follow
the
ies
standards.
Is
my
assumption
right,
correct,
okay,
so
one
of
the
things
that
I
recall
being
discussed
and
it
sounds
like
it
maybe
wasn't.
Maybe
this
wasn't
everybody's
recollection
from
other
folks.
D
In
the
meeting
I
was
hearing,
some
of
the
counselors
or
one
of
the
counselors
say
that
we
could
decide
as
a
commission
to
modify
that
policy
to
say
if
it
is
a
residential
street
that
has
had
the
same
lighting,
for
you
know,
80
90
years
or,
however
long
that
we
could
change
it.
So
we
could
say
that
it's
it
doesn't
it
mu.
It
doesn't
necessarily
have
to
be
updated
to
ies
standards.
D
C
E
Yes,
so
I
similarly
recall
there
was
a
suggestion
during
the
meeting
that
the
commission
has
the
authority
to
look
at
changing
standards.
I
know
commissioner
dean's
looking
at
whether
other
communities
are
still
following
ies
and
we
were
gonna
follow
up
on
that
in
september.
The
couple
things
I
wanted
to
mention
is
subsequent
to
that
meeting.
Andy
and
his
team
finished
reviewing
some
of
the
ies
standards
found
that
correct
me.
E
If
I'm
getting
this
wrong,
found
that
the
sidewalk
standards
are
lesser
now
right
than
the
prior
standards,
one
of
the
communities
where
we
had
had
concerns
raised
with
scarf
avenue,
we,
I
believe,
are
going
to
be
able
to
reduce
the
number
of
fixtures
from
23
down
to
14
as
a
result
of
those
new
standards
which
we've
communicated
via
letter
to
the
residents
on
july
5th.
So
I'm
not
100
certain
that
a
policy
change
is
necessary
to
accomplish
the
goal
of
reducing
the
lighting
that
was
affecting
some
of
the
residents
at
their
homes.
E
E
I
also
I'm
just
conscious
that
the
department
doesn't
necessarily
seek
to
have
this
responsibility.
It's
been
placed
on
us
by
the
city,
but
given
that
we
have
certain
liability
standards
that
we
need
to
to
meet,
so
I
just.
I
would
recommend
that,
if
we're
considering
any
kind
of
policy
change
at
september
or
any
subsequent
meeting,
we
invite
bill
ellis
back,
just
to
be
able
to
provide
advice,
and
I
don't
know
andy
if
you
have
other.
D
E
D
My
guess
is
they'll
feel
better
with
that,
but
I
still
recall,
because
it'll
be
less
than
what
it's
been
moving
forward,
though
for
other
streets
that
might
only
have
two.
What
I
recall
is
talking
about
with
the
counselors
was
you
know
if
if
there
haven't
been
complaints-
and
this
has
been
the
status
quo,
is
there?
Is
there
a
discussion
to
be
had
around
grandfathering
that
in
in
some
way
and
the
besides
scarf?
Do
you
have
any
other
streets
that
are
currently.
D
What
I'm
trying
to
ask
is:
if
we
don't
touch
this
until
september
after
commissioner,
herron
dean
has
done
his
research,
etc.
If
we
don't
touch
this
until
september,
are
there
other
streets
that
were
like
scarf,
that
only
had
two
that
you
will
be
updating
to
14
in
the
next
two
months
or
three
months.
I
D
D
I
C
I
I
D
So,
first
of
all
I
hear
this
is
you'd
prefer
not
to
do
this
job
darren
and
it's
or
not
prefer
not
to,
but
it
is
something
that
you
were
required
to
do
and
the
concern
about
liability.
I
do
hear
that
and
I
also
have
to
say
it's
much
to
my
chagrin,
that
we
followed
the
standards
and
then
the
standards
were
updated
and
so
now
we're
pulling
them
out
because
it's
like
that's
also
waste.
On
the
other
hand,
at
least
we
will
be
addressing
to
some
degree.
D
D
E
E
D
Well,
so
for
now,
if
you
can
send
it
and
although
we
may
not
meet
in
august,
if
we
could
all
plan
on
reading
it
and
if
you
could
highlight
like,
I
said
that
the
portion
that
would
be
specific
to
this
policy
standard,
that
would
be
helpful
in
terms
of
automatic
updating
to
the
ies
standards.
If
you
can
highlight
that
portion.
D
E
C
H
G
G
D
I
A
So
so
you
said
we're
going
to
do
this,
let
us
know
you
got
30
days
45
days,
nobody
says
anything.
The
polls
go
in
and
then
you
get
the
phone
call
and
then
the
other
thing.
That
kind
of
concerns
me
a
little
bit.
Is
you
know
it's
the
squeaky
wheel
syndrome
a
little
bit,
I
mean
probably
it's
very
dramatic.
A
If
there
were
two
poles
and
then
there
were
23.,
I
don't
don't
dispute
that,
but
sometimes
the
people
don't
are
some
they're,
not
speaking
for
everybody
right
and
then
that
is
also
something
that
we
need
to
consider,
because
I
know
that
that
neighborhood,
I
don't
know
last
summer
they
had
a
lot
of
car
break-ins
and
tires
being
slashed,
and
things
like
that,
so
it
just,
I
think,
we're
in
a
very
precarious
position.
Right
like
I
get,
the
counselors
are
involved
because
people
are
making
calls,
but
they
had
an
opportunity.
I
mean
this.
E
E
You
know
if
we
weren't
able,
under
the
new
ies
standards
to
do
something
to
address
the
challenge,
then
I
think
we
would.
We
would
be
forced
to
look
at
a
policy
change
if
we
wanted
to
do
something.
I
think
we're
fortunate
in
a
way
that
there
is
now
flexibility,
so
we
can
at
least
demonstrate
to
folks
that
we've
heard
them
that
we
can
go
in
and
change
the
infrastructure
see
if
it
addresses
the
majority
of
concerns-
and
you
know
we'll
know
that,
hopefully
soon
with
some
of
these
streets.
A
A
D
D
D
E
E
In
terms
of
public
events,
we
have
a
number
of
public
events
busy
time
of
year.
For
us
we
were
at
the
lake
monsters
last
week.
I'm
pleased
to
share
that.
I
was
able
to
get
the
first
pitch
over
the
plate.
Tom
messner
was
razzing
me
a
little
bit,
but
we
got
it
done
and
mike
kanerick
and
I
were
there
with
our
colleagues
from
vgs
tabling
at
our
customer
night.
We
had
a
lot
of
customers
who
showed
up
for
that.
E
E
The
free
bicycles
kind
of
brought
this
up
again
for
me
that
we
will
have
our
september
net
zero
energy
festival
planned
for
the
17th,
with
the
rain
date
of
the
24th.
We're
going
to
have
e-bike
and
ev
test
rides
there,
vendors
from
our
heat
pump
partners
champ,
will
be
making
an
appearance.
We
have
two
live
musicians
and
a
dj.
E
Fossil
fuel,
free
food
trucks
and
drink
carts
and
a
variety
of
kids
activities
touch
a
truck
with
our
bed
bucket
trucks,
power
town.
So
we're
excited
to
do
this
with
the
community
it'll
be
from
nine
to
one
on
september
17th
and
we'll
be
working
on
advertising
the
event
publicly
in
the
month
of
august
to
make
sure
people
are
aware
of
it.
So
we're
looking
forward
to
that,
I
think
we're
trying
to
get
a
bike
tune-up
station
as
well.
E
E
E
The
goal
here
is
to
do
a
number
of
things,
including
fully
form
the
non-profit
entity
that
would
be
burlington
district
energy
that
would
be
operated
by
evergreen
and
would
manage
the
project,
including
permitting
financing,
construction
and
operation.
If
we
reach
a
go
decision,
we're
going
to
try
to
get
updated
financial
information
through
the
course
the
end
of
the
year
updated
construction
pricing
financing
rates,
james
is
going
to
be
working
on
some
updated
fuel-related
pricing
as
well.
E
We
were
clear
about.
There
are
some
headwinds
in
regards
to
all
of
those
items
and
so
we're
hoping
that
by
the
end
of
the
year,
some
of
the
impacts
of
rising
rates
and
inflation
on
construction
and
other
things
are
able
to
be
addressed
in
a
favorable
way.
We're
also
in
the
process
of
a
significant
amount
of
paperwork
to
receive
the
5.166
million
from
senator
leahy.
The
council
approved
accepting
that
grant
and
had
a
resolution
supporting
formation
of
the
501c3
for
the
district
energy
nonprofit.
E
So
a
number
of
items
related
to
district
energy
are
underway.
Significant
amount
of
work
that'll
be
happening
over
the
next
six
to
nine
months.
Under
that
letter
agreement
and
further
forward
motion
with
some
economic
headwinds
with
that
project,
but
quite
a
bit
of
work
happening
and
that's
all.
I've
got.
E
I
don't
want
to
speculate
too
much,
but
I
think
the
engineering
and
design
is
largely
in
a
good
place,
and
so
I
think
it's
going
to
be
an
economic
decision
and
factors
will
be
what
they
are.
But
this
gives
us
some
time
to
have
some
some
factors
hopefully
turn
in
our
favor.
We
do
have
a
federal
grant
pending
that
we
applied
for
competitively
that
we're
hoping
to
hear
from
the
federal
government
about
which
would
further
enhance
the
economics
on
the
project.
If
it
was
successful.
G
D
E
I
think
it's
true
that
the
delta
between
conventional
gas
and
either
district
energy
or
other
renewable
fuels
like
renewable
natural
gas
has
gotten
smaller
because
of
the
upwards
pressure
on
natural
gas
as
a
commodity.
So
that
would
be
something
that
might
favorably
impact
the
economics
of
the
project.
Certainly
the
idea
that
you
would
have
a
hedge
against
a
fuel
price
volatility
by
being
part
of
the
district
energy
project,
also,
absolutely
a
plus.
E
E
E
Obviously,
the
the
one
impact
that
we're
seeing
is
diesel
prices
do
impact
wood
chip
prices
and
so
we're
seeing
that
I
don't
think
to
the
extent
that
we're
seeing
the
pressure
on
on
gas
commodity
costs,
but
there's
upward
pressure
in
a
variety
of
areas.
I
think
to
your
point.
The
overall
delta
has
probably
moved
somewhat
in
favor
of
the
project
in
recent
months.
F
D
F
F
H
D
E
E
E
I
don't
know
what
indications
of
interest
I
know.
Last
time
we
were
over
subscribed
when
we
had
the
initial
14.
So
I'm
assuming
we'll
have
a
pretty
strong
level
of
interest
and
then
just
the
other
thing
I'd
mention
is
we
just
signed
the
grant
agreement
for
state
of
vermont
that
we
can
put
in
the
five
street
light
ev
charger
level
twos
that
are
going
to
be
going
in
in
areas
that
we've
identified
as
being
a
higher
percentage
of
low
income
and
higher
percentage
of
renters?
E
F
Pilot
was
done
and
we've
just
done
the
soft
launch
in
like
june,
so
I
would
have
to
check
and
get
that
information,
and
I
think
the
act
151
reallocation
of
the
funds
is
still
pending
too.
We
were
planning.
We
were
planning
to
move
some
of
our
preferred
dealer
program
funds
into
multi-family
charging,
because
the
dealers
right
now
basically
can't
get
the
cars.
So
we
were
looking
to
reallocate
some
of
those
were
waiting
for
approval
to
move
those
funds
which
would
allow
us
to
do
more
of
them.
D
D
E
F
So
yeah
we
had
actually
proposed
three
and
they
gave
us
five.
We
actually
proposed
five
and
expected
to
get
three
and
we
got
five
locations
for
the
multi-family
street
side,
ev
charging.
We
had
to
make
a
couple
of
modifications,
because
the
statewide
contract
was
structured
around
people
who
didn't
have
electric
rates,
and
things
like
that.
You
know
so
to
make
a
few
adjustments,
but
it
has
been
signed,
as
of
today,
I'm
happy
to
check
on
the
status
of
the
soft
roll
out
and
get
back
to
you
in
august
no
july
september.
F
I
have
a
map
they're
mostly
in
the
old
north
end,
but
I
think
there's
one
on
pine
street
too.
It
was
done
freddie
and
tom
lyle
from
my
team,
basically
took
a
a
demographic
overlay
of
income
levels
housing.
You
know
multi-unit
housing
and
looked
for
locations
that
would
work
with
dpw
and
selected
five
on
that
basis.
So
again,
there's
a
map
and
I'm
happy
to
provide
that.
Are
they.
A
A
F
F
A
E
F
There
was
just
some
funny
things
like
you
know,
make
sure
that
you
can
park.
You
know
that
you're
you,
you
facilitate
nose-to-tail
parking,
it's
like
I'm,
not
gonna
get
involved
in
the
parking
ordinances
in
burlington.
You
know
so
you
know
special
special
street
snow
clearing
it's
like
well.
We
can't
really
do
that.
You
know
so
there
there
had
to
be
some
amendments
to
the
contract,
but
they
were
very.
The
state
was
very
accommodating.
We
fixed
those
things
and
signed
it
today.
E
F
G
E
J
A
Yeah-
and
I
think
transportation
is
also
important
for
the
new
high
school,
because
they're
building
in
a
very
antiquated
the
last
plans
that
I
saw
were
pretty
much
like
suburban
style,
assumed
that
people
and
give
preference
to
cars
over
the
bus
and
the
bus
carries
many
more
students
and
things
like
that.
They
weren't
that
amenable
when
I
talked
to
them
earlier
and
they
weren't
that
interested
in
listening.
But
I
don't
know
now.
I
know.
E
E
A
D
K
All
right
before
I
pull
up
the
actual
numbers,
I
thought
I
would
talk
about.
There's
sort
of
a
funky
anomaly
happening
in
the
may
financials.
So
it's
been
mentioned
in
a
lot
of
the
updates
from
finance
and
policy
and
planning
over
the
last
couple
months,
but
we
have
an
accounting
change.
That's
going
to
go
into
effect
related
to
how
we
account
for
renewable
energy
credits,
in
that
we
are
shifting.
K
Historically,
what
we've
done
is
when
we
buy
renewable
energy
credits,
we
expense
them
in
the
month
that
we
purchase
them
and
then
that's
sort
of
all
that
we
do
on
the
financials.
The
change
that
we're
making
is
we're
actually
going
to
they're
effectively
an
asset
because
they're
good
for
three
years
in
terms
of
when
we
have
to
sort
of
turn
them
in
so
we've
changed
it
so
that
we're
gonna
qual,
qualify
them
as
inventory
when
we
purchase
them
and
then
they
will
we'll
expense
them
based
on
what
our
compliance
is
for
that
year.
K
K
Sure
bought
a
good
number
of
wrecks
last
month
or
in
may,
and
we
expensed
all
of
them
in
the
month
of
may
we're
going
to
have
to
we're
going
to
make
an
adjustment,
and
we
decided
not
to
make
the
adjustment
in
may
because
we're
going
to
have
to
do
a
year-end
true
up
in
june.
So
there's
going
to
be
a
change
in
june
to
the
tune
of
about
half
a
million
dollars.
K
K
Yeah
so
they'll
say
they
won't
be
expensed
in
the
year,
so
they
won't
show
up
on
the
income
statement.
So
our
net
income
for
the
year
won't
be
impacted.
It
will
like
they
were.
Historically,
it
will
sit
on
the
balance
sheet
as
a
an
asset
to
the
agency
or
the
department
cool.
So
with
that
said,
I
will
dive
right
in,
but
you
can
see
it's
pretty
apparent
when
you
look
at
it.
K
So
for
the
month
the
net
income
was
274
000
as
compared
to
a
budget
of
1.34
million
dollars,
so
it
shows
where
a
million
dollars
under,
but
that's
really,
if
you
adjust
that
by
half
a
million
really
only
about
half
a
million
out
of
budget
and
so
for
the
year.
This
also
shows
that
we're
173
000
under,
but
if
you
adjust
or
actually
to
the
good
for
the
month,
just
going.
A
K
H
K
E
K
So
real
quick
running
through
sort
of
the
month
end,
it
was
a
good
month
for
sales
to
customer,
both
residential
and
commercial
were
up.
Residential
was
up
the
majority
of
that
above
budget
variance
was
due
to
residential
to
the
tomb
of
about
a
hundred
thousand
dollars.
Other
revenues
were
down
about.
Ninety
one
thousand
is
primarily
driven
by
eeu
every
month,
that's
generally
what
it
is,
and
similarly
the
power
supply
revenue
was
down.
28
000.
K
This
is
due
to
that
sort
of
under
production
that
we've
talked
about
in
prior
months
and
how
that
comes
through.
So
this,
the
power
supply
expense
line
is
where
that
half
a
million
dollars
that
change
is.
There
is
also
the
iso
exchange
line
was
about
581
over
budget.
There
was
under
production.
If
you'll
recall
may
mcneil
was
offline
in
may,
so
there
was
under
production
mcneil.
There
was
also
some
under
production
at
winooski
won
and
in
our
win
contracts
the
fuel
was
under
budget.
K
Similarly,
because
mcneil
wasn't
producing
so
we
didn't
expense
as
much
fuel
and
our
operating
expenses
were
about
58
000
over
budget
last
month,
taxes
same
story
as
it's
been
every
month.
The
pilot
change
has
really
benefited
us,
so
we've
got
that
again.
Almost
half
a
million
dollars
for
the
year
and
our
other
income
was
under
budget
again,
just
due
to
lower
anticipated
customer
contributions,
which
is
really
just
timing
of
when
we
budgeted
for
those
customer
contributions
to
come
in
to
when
they're.
D
H
K
A
A
E
Mike
leach
had
kind
of
incorporated
the
new
normal
emily
can
add
to
this
if
she
wants
into
the
forecast.
So
you
know
previous
years
we
had
looked
at
it
like
what
would
normal
year
be
minus
a
certain
percent,
and
I
think
the
kind
of
variability
from
the
pandemic
is
now
reflected
more
in
the
underlying
sales
forecasts.
That's.
L
L
A
L
You
know,
generally
speaking,
to
where
we'd
expect
it
to
be,
and
then
we're
kind
of
con
continuing
to
see
that
residential
bump
from
the
sort
of
work
at
home
school
at
home
phenomenon
that
covet
brought
and
we're
actually
in
our
sales
forecast
sort
of
like
projecting
that
to
kind
of
continue
to
be
the
way
that
people
behave
that
affects
their
electricity
consumption
in
their
homes.
So
we've
budgeted
for
a
sort
of
a
modest
residential
increase
in
the
fy23
sales
budget.
D
L
Chris
has
the
best
intelligence
that
anybody
has.
I
will
say
that
we've
not
because
the
plans
have
not
become
firm
and
known.
We
haven't
incorporated
it
into
our
revenue
projections
yet
but
you're
correct
that
once
we
see
some
shovels
and
earth
moving,
we
will
and
it
will
make
a
substantial
change
to
the
revenues.
M
So,
but
what
we're
hearing
from
the
design
team
the
early
design
team
is,
it
was
going
to
go
so
that'll,
be
interesting
to
see
what
the
impact
is.
Our
understanding
is
the
hotel
version,
with
a
small
amount
of
apartments,
with
retail,
going
above
outdoor
gear
exchange
down
to
the
llv
there's
phase.
That's
one
project
where
the
hole
is
is
a
separate
project
where
most
of
the
housing,
but
we're
looking
at
a
an
unknown
timeline
for
occupancy.
D
J
D
K
The
collections
are,
we
did
the
the
rearrange
use
the
arpa
funds,
they
are
about
double
where
they
were
in
february
of
2020.
That's
because
we're
sort
of
starting
to
move
into
that
disconnect
piece.
So
I
think
it's
we
haven't
done
the
disconnects
yet
so
that
hasn't
started
to
drop
off
yet
so
there
is
a
rear
edges
associated
with
disconnects
that
haven't
happened,
but
they
are
sort
of
moderate.
They
were
the
same
in
april
or
in
may
and
june.
K
K
All
right
so
year
to
date
we're
ahead
on
the
sales
to
customers.
Right
that,
no
you
know
residential
is
up.
A
million
non-residential
is
down
a
million
right,
so
we're
like
right,
where
we
thought
we
were
going
to
be
in
aggregate,
but
a
little
off
sort
of
in
the
buckets
of
revenue.
Similar
other
revenues
are
down
mostly
due
to
the
eu
stuff
and
then
demand
side
management.
G
K
On
the
the
capital
side.
We're
about
55
of
the
budget
to
date
say
it
again.
Right.
Timing
of
projects,
invoices
for
the
mcneil
overhaul
came
in
continue
to
come
in
sort
of
into
june.
So
though,
there'll
be
more
activity
on
that
by
year
end
and
also
there's,
you
know
a
couple
projects,
including
the
velcro
spending,
that's
not
going
to
happen
or
that
didn't
happen
in
fy
22.
K
K
K
The
adjusted
ratio
is
at
1.33
and
day's
cash
on
hand
is
at
140
days
and
it
was
109
139
in
the
prior
month.
Just
as
a
one
thing
we
do
know
is
that
the
year
at
year
end
our
cash
was
about
a
million
dollars
ahead
of
where
we
had
budgeted.
So
we
do
know,
we
don't
have
to
wait
for
the
final
accounting
to
know
where
our
cash
position
was
on
june
30..
A
I
just
have
a
little
question
because
I'm
not
I'm
used
to
different
kinds
of
public
agencies
and
if,
if
you
had
a
lot
of
cash
in
the
bank
you
can
get
in
like
people
are
like,
why
do
you
have
all
this
money
like
what
you're
charging
you
know
so
do
you
have?
Is
that
a
problem
or
not
is
because
you're
a
different
entity?
I.
E
You
know,
for
example,
but
I
think
you
know
looking
at
these
metrics
and
I
know
that
we'll
get
improvement
modestly
in
the
adjusted
debt
ratio
based
on
the
accounting
change
that
emily
mentioned.
We
don't
know
what
june
holds
so
we're
kind
of
interested
and
anxious
to
learn
what
our
year-end
metrics
look
like.
E
These
are
way
healthier,
metrics
than
we
saw,
particularly
during
the
pandemic,
but
even
pre-pandemic,
and
I
think
the
rate
change
is
hard
as
that
was
to
pursue,
and
then
the
strategy
of
having
the
more
moderate
follow-up
rate
change
has
has
helped
get
us
to
this
point,
where
we're
not
right
on
the
knife's
edge
of
the
a
metric.
But
we
have
some
cushion
and
I
don't
necessarily
expect
we'll
maintain
a
140
days.
E
A
G
M
A
G
C
C
C
C
E
M
E
J
D
D
H
E
And
there's
no
substantive
change
here
from
what
you
saw
in
june.
I
did
want
to
reiterate,
based
on
the
discussion,
we
had
last
time
that,
when
this
goes
up
on
the
website,
we
will
include
a
link
to
the
pmr,
so
that
folks,
who
are
interested
in
the
metrics,
can
get
the
latest
metrics
in
a
given
year.
Based
on
that.
E
D
A
D
C
E
I
think
if
I'm
remembering
chris
was
this
from
your
team,
was
there
a
we've?
We've
talked
a
lot
internally
about
heat
pumps
because
they're
such
a
significant
measure
and
because
understanding
the
cost
savings,
in
particular
when
we're
competing
against
natural
gas,
which
has
typically
had
favorable
economics,
has
been
so
important
to
us.
So
we've
talked
about
having
a
web
tool.
E
J
M
That's
essentially
true,
when
you
look
at
some
of
the
tools
that
are
out
there
for
consumers
for
evs,
we
felt
that
when
you
look
at
the
roadmap
building
electrification
is
is
tricky.
With
heat
pumps
in
this
climate,
going
against
natural
gas,
we
felt
a
dedicated
tool
just
to
deal
with
the
heat
pump
issue.
M
C
I
think
your
point
is
good,
I'm
carrying
a
bit
of
baggage,
which
I
might
have
mentioned
once
before,
a
fight
that
I
had
once
in
my
brief
employee
at
the
solar
energy
research
institute,
when
the
bugaboo
that
was
thrown
out
was
a
house
in
the
northeast
somewhere
that
had
three
inch
walls
and
was
covered
with
solar
panels,
which
I
think
in
those
days
were
just
thermal
panels.
They
weren't
electric
panels
and
the
question
was:
was
there
an
overall
optimization
over
efficiency
and
supply?
C
D
I
remember
this
is
what
I
brought
up.
I
think
last
time
around
as
well,
because
I
was
like
what
about
all
the
other
technologies,
and
one
of
the
comments
was
that
you
know
we
don't
necessarily
it's
not
as
core
to
our
business
proposition
other
technologies.
That
being
said,
it'd
be
great.
If
you
could
do
some
thinking
to
this
website
tools
that
there
is
some
language
about
when
you're
electrifying
a
building.
D
D
C
B
D
D
L
So,
yes,
I'm
gonna
queue
this
up
and
give
you
an
overview,
and
chris
is
here
to
speak
to
any
programmatic
questions.
You
may
have
he's
been
the
person
primarily
engaged
with
bhfa
and
exploring
and
shaping
this
program,
and
james
is
here
because
this
is
probably
going
to
be
a
puc
filing
and
the
reason
we're
bringing
it
especially
to
you
is
that
it
may
end
up
taking
the
form
of
a
tariff.
L
L
Low
and
moderate
income
customers
pay
for
weatherization
improvements.
It
will
be
financing
provided
by
the
vermont
housing
finance
agency,
using
9
million
dollars
in
state
appropriations.
Vhfa
is
hoping
to
make
this
a
statewide
program.
There
will
be
a
number
of
utilities,
hopefully
filing
before
the
end
of
the
calendar
year,
bed
among
them,
and
we
will
also
if
a
customer
comes
forward
and
has
a
project
with
this
scope.
You
know
bundle
in
heat
pump
or
electrification
improvements
along
with
the
weatherization
and
that
would
all
be
financed
as
one
loan.
L
A
couple
unique
features
of
the
program
as
proposed.
The
loan
will
follow
the
meter
so
that
a
subsequent
homeowner
would
pick
pick
up
the
loan.
A
subsequent
tenant
would
pick
up
the
loan
and
there
will
be
no
disconnection
for
non-payment
of
the
loan
component
of
the
bill.
So,
let's
cover
the
next
slide,
we'll
sort
of
get
into
roles
and
responsibilities.
L
And
make
sure
it's
a
good
and
reasonable
project
from
an
efficiency
perspective,
the
hfa
will
be
the
ones
setting
the
loan
terms.
They've
indicated
they
haven't
picked
a
financing
rate,
but
they
expect
it
will
be
no
more
than
two
percent
interest
rate
on
these
loans
and
then
vhfa
will
communicate
to
our
billing
department
and
finance
department.
L
The
program
will
be
filed
and
proposed
for
puc
approval
as
a
two-year
pilot,
but
the
loans
made
under
the
pilot
program
could
last
up
to
15
years,
so
we
could
be
servicing
these
loans
even
for
a
while.
Even
if
the
pilot
program
is
not
extended
or
made
permanent
in
your
packet
is
a
pretty
detailed
letter
of
support
that
vhfa
drafted
that
the
idea
is
that
would
accompany
the
puc
filing
that
we,
as
the
distribution
utility,
would
make.
A
B
L
C
M
So
if
you're,
a
vermont
gas
customer
you're
going
to
want
to
take
advantage
of
all
the
technical
assistance
and
rebates
and
package
that
into
your
rap
loan,
because
that's
going
to
buy
down
your
your
cost.
But
with
that
you
get
the
technical
assistance,
you
get,
the
contractor
help
finding
the
right
contractor
and
you
get
inspection,
because
the
eeu
you
know
is
held
to
pretty
rigorous
measurement
and
verification
of
their
savings.
M
D
M
Would
not
touch
it
absolutely
I
mean
our
role
would
be
to
help
promote
it.
You
know
to
all
to
our
shared
customers,
and
the
idea
here
is
to
try
to
help
those
folks
that
aren't
qualified
for
the
low
income
weatherization
program
and
trying
to
help
more.
You
know
low
and
moderate,
so
a
market
that
both
bed
and
vermont
gas
really
want
to
be
working
on.
D
M
D
This
is
fantastic.
It
is
so
great,
it's
just
great
that
this
is
actually
happening.
So
good
luck,
because
I'm
sure
it'll
be
really
fun
related
to
that.
I'm
just
I
interviewed
a
bunch
of
people
down
in
connecticut
who
had
set
up
a
on
build
financing
program
and
they
said
the
customers
love
it
all.
The
customers
love
it,
but
it's
a
lot
of
work
so
related
to
that.
How
does
bed
pay
for
the
administrative
costs.
L
Right
so,
as
I
mentioned
before,
there
is
a
provision
in
the
services
agreement
that
we
would
execute
with
vhfa,
where
we
would
receive
a
one-time
setup
fee
for
the
initial
processing
of
adding
the
payment
to
the
bill,
and
then
a
recurring
monthly
fee
on
each
loan
would
also
come
to
bed
that
the
customer
would
pay
for
the
monthly
payment,
processing
and
transmittal
of
funds
to
the
hfa.
Sorry.
D
M
D
L
No,
I
think
that
the
idea
is
that
that
letter-
that's
in
your
packet,
that's
a
draft
letter.
It
hasn't
gone
anywhere
that
the
idea
is
that
would
accompany
a
puc
filing,
so
we
would
make
the
filing
with
puc.
That
says,
we
want
to
offer
this
on
bill
weatherization
program
and
vhfa
would
attach
their
letter
to
say
we
support
this
filing
and
here's.
Why
so
that.
A
D
D
A
G
D
F
Slight
technical
difficulties,
as
they
say,
I'm
just
doing
this
from
home
and
not
from
here
so
I'd
like
to
touch
base
quickly
with
the
electric
commission
on
the
arc
industries
pilot
program,
but
we
are
calling
this
an
update
because
we
have
spoken
to
you
before
about
this
and
you
guys
have
approved
advancing
this
project
once
before.
There
have
been
some
minor
changes
since
we
talked
to
you
and
we
thought
it
was
prudent
to
bring
it
back
to
you
again
and
make
sure
that
you
didn't
have
any
issues
with
the
proposal.
F
As
it's
now
just
a
quick
reminder.
The
ark
industries
was
a
company
out
of
the
2021
delta,
climb,
mentoring,
cohort.
It
was
one
of
the
ones
selected
for
a
pilot
by
us,
and
it
is
an
arc
stands
for
advanced
renewable
concept
and
it's
a
essentially
a
roof
mounted
wind
turbine.
It's
a
about
eight
feet
tall.
So
it's
a
six
foot
ball
with
a
two
foot
stand,
and
you
know
we
liked
it
because
it
was
a
chance
to
deploy
something
else
alongside
solar
panels
on
roves
and
potentially
could
share
inverters
with
the
solar
panels.
F
We
did
want
to
try
to
put
it
in
the
downtown
area.
We
were
unable
to
do
that
right
now.
What
we're
talking
about
is,
we
are
looking
at
putting
it
at
the
airport,
and
the
airport
has
been
very
helpful.
Very
engaged,
I'd
like
to
make
a
point
of
thanking
them
for
being
flexible
and
working
with
us
on
this.
F
We
are
currently
authorized
to
enter
a
contract
to
deploy
wind
turbine.
There
was
difficulty
locating
this
will
pilot
project
location
for
the
pilot.
I
don't
think
it's
necessary
that
it
wouldn't
work
in
burlington,
but
for
our
pilot
we
were
having
some
real
restrictions
on
what
we
could
choose,
we're
going
to
need
to
amend
the
mou
that
we
have
with
the
airport
that
allows
us
to
use
that
area
that
you
can
see
with
the
black
panels,
for
the
solar
array
to
allow
us
to
add
the
arc
in
the
area
marked
by
the
red
x.
F
We
think
the
power
supply
contract
would
be
better
for
the
the
actual
arc
agreement
itself.
The
second
phase
agreement,
because
really
what
we're
getting
out
of
this
is
the
energy
from
the
plant,
while
it's
producing,
as
well
as
information
on
energy
production
and
lastly,
they
have
the
right
potential
to
buy
the
plant
out
or
the
unit
out
at
the
end
of
the
contract.
F
So
what
we
did
was
we
split
the
contracts
into
two
agreements.
We
have
a
preparation
agreement
with
which
was
which
we
have
executed
in
a
long
day.
It
is
a
one
year,
less
term.
It
really
is
the
site
evaluation,
for
you
know:
anemometer
measurements,
for
wildlife,
things
like
that
and
preparation
work
where
that
work
is
permitted
in
the
absence
of
a
248
permit,
so
some
things
are
permitted
before
the
248
permit
is
issued.
Some
things
are
not
and
that
contract
would
have
a
maximum
amount
of
four
thousand
remind.
F
The
end
of
project
options
are
still
what
we
talked
about
the
first
time
again.
It
would
be
either
decommissioned
or
or
what
could
be
extended
or
it
could
be
bought
out.
The
way
we've
drafted
the
contract
is,
it
could
be
extended
up
to
five
years,
because
five
years
is
the
maximum
power
purchase
agreement
authority
that
the
electric
commission
has.
F
So
what
we're
asking
for
is
a
motion
to
authorize
a
general
manager
to
enter
into
a
contract
with
art,
committing
the
commercial
terms,
described
herein
to
install
and
receive
power
from
one
arc
terminal
at
the
airport
and
seek
supporting
modifications
of
the
mou
with
the
airport
as
needed
to
accomplish
this
again.
This
is
just
a
3kw
turban.
This
is
not
a
major
purchase
by
any
stretch
of
the
imagination.
F
D
F
F
We
share
the
data
with
them
as
to
what
the
capabilities
are
of
the
unit
and
then
at
the
end
of
it
we
can
decide
if
it's
economical
to
purchase
that
asset
and
continue
its
operation
there,
which
would
be
a
separate
charge
and
we'd
have
to
bring
that
to
you
and
or
we
can
have
them
decommission
it,
and
so,
if
we
do
that,
then
the
second
contract
takes
us
to
where
that
roof
has
been
restored
to
its
pre-existing
condition.
This
would
be
a
fully
ballasted
the
other
option.
F
F
However
much
it
actually
produces,
there
isn't
this.
This
is
the
first
unit.
This
there's
none
of
these
installed
anywhere.
So
it's
not
like
you
know.
We
have
their
estimated
win
production,
but
we
don't
know
so
again.
It
truly
is
a
pilot
of
a
of
a
prototype
technology
that
would
be
first
occurring
in
burlington
r
d
project.
Yes,
maybe.
C
Okay,
well
all
right,
you
said
three
kilowatts,
which
means
it
works
like
big
windmills,
that's
like
one
kilowatt
average
continuous
anyway.
I
guess
my
objection
is.
I
wonder
where
it's
going
to
go
if
it
works
at
the
airport,
if
there
are
that
many
places
where
it
will
go
and
also,
it
seems
a
little
chancy
to
assume
that
three
kilowatt
kilowatts
was
translated
into
one
kilowatt
average.
I
know
they
haven't
said
that,
but
I
guess
we
have
to
make
some
assumptions
about
that.
F
C
F
Well,
there's
a
big
question
about
the
sighting,
because,
right
now
the
vermont
permitting
rules
for
rooftop
arrays
are
all
revolving
around
solar,
so
we're
going
to
have
to
ask
for
a
waiver,
among
other
things,
we're
going
to
ask
for
a
waiver
of
the
normal
permitting
conditions.
We've
been
in
communication
with
the
puc
about
that
and
we
hope
to
file
as
soon
as
we
can
to
actually
seek
a
waiver
of
those
conditions.
The
puc
was
amenable
to
that
discussion,
but
part
of
it's
going
to
be.
D
F
F
C
D
Yeah,
the
the
steps
to
actually
get
the
equipment
has
been
delayed
correct,
but
I
that
that
was
maybe
like
a
year
and
a
half
ago
or
two
years
ago,
but
yes,
we
we
did.
We
did
vote
to
support
that
and
I'll
just
say
for
this
personally,
as
someone
who,
like
headed
up
a
renewable
energy
technology,
trade
association-
I
just
I
I
because
r
d
is
important.
D
I
support
this,
but
I
generally
I
mean
every
single
roof
mounted
turbine
has
not
or
or
close
to
the
ground
or
near
bunches
of
buildings
has
not
really
been
a
great
producer
of
energy.
In
terms
of
you
know
the
return
on
investment,
but
let's
see
how
it
goes.
It's
ten
thousand
dollars,
let's
see
how
it
goes
right.
F
F
F
Depends
upon
your
markets
these
days,
but
again
the
the
buyout
isn't
unknown.
You
know
the
duration
isn't
unknown.
That's
a
one-year
analysis.
You
know
again,
I'm
not
disputing
it.
But
again
it's
it's.
A
pilot
project
and
now
part
of
our
our
mission
here
is
to
is
to
push
some
of
these
envelopes
and
test
new
things
so
yeah.
So
I
mean
again,
I
feel
very
much
like
in
the
pilot
project.
I
don't
look
for
it
to
pencil
out
on
the
bottom
line
to
greater
than
zero
or
you
don't
do
it.
F
E
Just
also
mentioned
that,
under
our
act,
151
filing
with
the
puc
we've
specifically,
I
think,
put
aside
funds
to
support
the
delta
climb
pilots,
which
are
right
every
year.
We
do
typically
two
pilots.
Sometimes
we've
done
three
and
we
support
the
companies
with
a
ten
thousand
dollar
demonstration
grant,
essentially
to
to
do
something
with
us
or
with
our
customers.
That
would
have
some
value.
So
if
that's.
F
If
it's,
if
it's
extended,
there's
no
cost
during
the
extension.
So
if
we
decide
that
there's
merit
to
extending
it
and
they're
willing
to
extend
it,
then
it
would
just
be
extended
operationally,
but
it
can't
go
past
five
years,
because
there's
only
the
approval
under
a
power
purchase
agreement
for
a
five-year
type
of
arrangement.
If
we
went
tried
to
go
past
five
years,
we'd
need
to
get
a
different
structure.
D
D
Much
okay!
Well,
I
mean
I
commissioners,
how
do
you
feel
like
I?
We
supported
this
in
the
past.
I
I
think
I
appreciate
you
coming
back
with
it.
They
are.
They
are
changes,
so
it's
it's
appreciated
that
you're
coming
back
to
us.
Personally,
as
I
said,
I
I'll
see
I'll
be
I'll,
be
psyched
if
it
actually
comes
back
with
some
good
generating
numbers,
but
it
is
ten
thousand
dollars
and
we
do
need
other
solutions
in
the
toolbox.
G
C
A
Okay,
I
motioned
to
authorize
a
general
manager
to
enter
into
a
contract
with
arc
containing
the
commercial
terms,
described
herein
to
install
and
receive
power
from
one
arc
wind
turbine
at
the
airport,
and
to
seek
supporting
modifications
of
the
mou
with
the
airport
as
needed.
To
accomplish
this
second.
D
L
L
L
L
First,
the
meter
data
management
system:
this
is
the
sort
of
database
that
stores
our
smart
meter
ami
data
after
it's
collected
and
does
the
math
so
to
speak,
to
determine
what
the
bills?
What
should
be
billed?
So
that's,
that's
that
the
first
one
and
then
all
of
the
as
you
recall,
all
of
the
vendors
are
part
of
the
harris
utilities
corporation.
L
The
overall
timeline
for
the
sequencing
of
those
major
implementations
has
changed
a
little
bit
sort
of
through
mutual
agreement
between
ourselves
and
harris,
as
we
talked
through
what
made
sense
in
terms
of
how
to
sequence.
These
so
unchanged
is
that
the
mdm
and
the
portal
have
remained
the
first
priority
and
where
we
started.
L
The
reason
being
is
that
those
both
of
those
systems
are
sort
of
running
on
the
original,
mdm
and
original
portal
that
we
stalled
coincident
with
the
ami
system,
which
went,
live
in
2013
or
14
and
then
proved
difficult
and
expensive
to
upgrade,
which
really
was
the
impetus.
For
this
whole,
it
forward
initiative.
L
L
Those
mdm
and
this
in
the
portal
have
multiple
phases
because
they
connect
to
multiple
systems,
so
the
mdm
connects
to
the
cis
in
order
to
generate
bills,
so
you
have
to
implement
it
now,
connect
it
to
the
existing
cis,
and
if
you
replace
the
cis,
you
have
to
do
another
phase
to
connect
it
to
the
new
cis
and
make
sure
that
it
works
right
and
then
finally
the
staking.
So
that
was
the
original
plan.
L
Mdm
portal,
fis
cis,
after
sort
of
thinking
about
it
more
and
talking
with
harris
we've
changed
that
plan
so
that,
instead
of
doing
the
fis
next
after
the
mdmn
portal,
it
really
makes
more
sense
to
do
the
cis
that
allows
us
to
wrap
up
and
complete
the
mdm
and
portal
like
in
a
shorter
period
of
time.
So
you're
not
going
back.
You
know
years
later,
you're
going
back
months
later,
and
the
cis
is
really
where
a
lot
of
the
sort
of
value
proposition
for
the
project.
L
G
L
L
So
then,
I'm
going
to
talk
now,
just
a
little
bit
more
in
detail
about
the
status
of
the
mdm
project,
the
status
of
the
portal
project
and
the
status
of
the
cis
project,
which
is
the
one
we
sort
of
queued
up
on
deck,
so
to
speak.
So
the
meter
sense
mdm
implementation
is
in
progress.
It
kicked
off
in
march
2021,
just
a
few
months
after
we
last
came
to
the
commission
for
the
contract
approval.
L
L
Primarily,
I
would
say
two
one.
As
you
know,
we
had
a
substantial
I.t
staff
turnover
last
summer
and
fall,
which
was
a
major
slowdown.
We
were
able
to
maintain
forward
progress,
but
it
definitely
slowed
things
down
and
then
the
second
major
sort
of
challenge
or
risk
to
the
project
that
I'll
mention
it
was
the
third
party
vendor
integrations.
So
the
mdm
has
to
connect
to
the
ami
to
be
able
to
bring
in
the
smart
meter.
Data
has
to
connect
to
the
cis
to
feed
the
billing
data.
L
In
both
of
those
cases,
you
know
we're
not
in
charge
and
smart
works
isn't
in
charge.
Our
ami
and
cis
vendors
are
in
charge
right
and
so
making
sure
that
those
vendors
made
resources
available
were
committed
to
the
project
had
a
timeline
that
met
our
timeline
was
those
were
identified
very
early
on
as
likely
sources
of
risk
and
sure
enough.
They
have
been
sources
of
risk
to
the
project
and
then,
thirdly,
we
have
not
backfilled
any
positions.
To
make
this
project
happen.
L
Everyone
is,
is
that's
involved
in
the
project
is
doing
this
work.
You
know,
in
addition
to
their
regular
job
as
a
you
know,
billing
analyst
or
it
person
or
energy
services
engineer,
or
what
have
you
right
so
having
staff
resources
being
able
to
do
a
project
on
top
of
their
regular
jobs
is
a
challenge.
L
All
of
that
said.
Smart
works
has
been
great
to
work
with
they've
been
flexible,
we've
been
flexible,
azik's
project
has
experienced,
you
know,
surprises
delays,
risks.
Both
teams
have
been
working
together,
very
well,
communicating
well
and
kind
of
figuring
out.
Okay.
Well,
if
that
part
is
stuck-
and
we
can't
move
that,
then
what
else
can
we
do
in
the
meantime,
to
keep
forward
progress
going.
L
Oops
I
advance
the
slides
yeah
here.
We
are
welcome
back
commissioner
d,
so
that
partnership
has
been
good
and
that's
been,
you
know
really
critical
to
being
able
to
keep
going
despite
the
challenges
that
we've
been
facing,
and
then
the
third
thing
I'll
mention
is
that
we
spent
a
good
amount
of
time
with
smartworks
establishing
the
statement
of
work
from
the
very
beginning
and
that's
been.
That
was
proved
to
be
time
well
spent,
because
the
scope
that
we've
arrived
at
you
know,
prior
to
march
2021
is
really
where
the
scope
is.
L
L
Silver
blaze
portal:
this
kicked
off
in
april
2021,
so
just
a
month
after
the
mdm
has
a
same.
Go,
live
target
reason
being
is
that
the
customer
portal
is
where
folks
can
pay
their
bill,
but
also
where
they
can
see
their
smart
meter
data
they're
interested
in
what
my
usage
looked
like
last
week,
so
that
the
portal
receives
data
from
the
mdm.
L
The
silverblaze
portal
is
a
bit
of
a
different
story.
The
payments
integration
kind
of
getting
accounts
set
up
where
we're
going
to
work
so
that
everyone
who
has
an
existing
account
and
the
current
portal
will
get
moved
over
as
seamlessly
as
possible
to
the
new
portal,
and
then
you
know
just
create
a
new
password.
L
So
all
of
that
work
has
gone
great,
where
we've
run
into
some
challenges
with
this
project
is
in
the
presentation
of
that
smart
meter
data
and
the
build
data
and
how
to
make
things
like
time
of
use
rates,
demand,
charges,
net
metering,
kind
of
some
of
the
more
complicated
customer
and
meter
situations
how
to
make
that
appear
in
a
graphical,
user-friendly
way.
That's
understandable
and
as
it
happens,
you
know
the
customers
with
the
most
sort
of
complicated
electricity
situation
are
the
ones
most
likely
to
want
to
see
their
data
on
the
portal
right.
L
L
L
We
are
finalizing
the
statement
of
work.
We
just
started
conversations
with
harris
last
week
on
kind
of
revisiting
the
statement
of
work.
We
did
probably
80
percent
of
it.
You
know
prior
to
march
2021,
and
then
we
kind
of
left
the
rest
until
now
and
in
preparation
for
that,
we've
engaged
the
consultants
that
have
been
helping
us
with
project
management
have
worked
with
teams
throughout
bed
to
map
all
of
the
business
processes
that
relate
to
the
cis.
D

So
we
just
exited
the
executive
session
at
802
and
appreciate
the
hard
work
from
our
I.t
team
very
much
erica
and
emily
both
of
you
as
well
as
your
folks
that
work
with
erica
the
last
item
on
the
agenda
is
agenda.
Item
number
12.,
it's
the
commissioner's
check-in.
The
one
thing
I
have
on
the
list
is
to
look
back
to
whether
or
not
we
think
we
need
an
august
meeting.
