A
Okay:
five
o'clock
on
my
DOT:
all
my
bells
are
ringing,
so
we're
gonna
call
to
order
the
utility
service
board
meeting
for
Monday
July
3rd.
The
first
item
on
the
agenda
is
the
approval
of
the
minutes
from
the
June
20th
meeting.
Are
there
any
corrections
or
questions
regarding
the
minutes
hearing
on?
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
D?
All
those
in
favor,
say:
aye
opposed
motion
passes
next
we're
going
to
have
the
approval
of
claims.
We
have
the
standard
invoices
with
a
total
of
565
100
49.69.
D
Gosh,
where
is
it
Irving
material?
I
didn't
look
up
the
page
number?
Oh
here
we
go
it's
page
three
and
there's
about
twenty
seven
thousand
dollars
a
concrete
at
512,
East,
Kirkwood
and
I
was
like
what
address.
Is
that
so
I
looked
it
up
and
it
was
the
underground
printing,
Bloomington
and
I
thought.
You
know
I
walk
by
here.
All
the
time.
D
D
D
A
D
C
Threw
me
yeah
I,
don't
know
why
they
put
the
address
there,
but
it
that
that
would
be
a
lot
of
concrete.
We
just
put
that
we
put
the
the
the
casings
in
for
the
the
Duke
cables
for
the
new
for
the
storm
water
project
over
at
the
bottom
League
I'm,
pretty
sure,
that's
what
it
is.
It's
probably
just
a
bad
address.
I
figured
that
was
yeah.
That
was
the.
B
E
A
Hearing
none
is
there
a
motion
to
approved
all
those
in
favor,
say
aye
opposed
motion
passes.
The
next
item
are
wire
transfers
in
the
amount
of
435
227.40.
Are
there
any
questions
hearing
none?
Is
there
a
motion
to
approved
all
those
in
favor,
say
aye
all
those
opposed
motion
passes
and
then
finally
cut
customer
refunds
for
a
total
of
four
thousand
five
hundred
seventy
six
dollars
and
sixty
six
cents.
Are
there
any
questions
on
the
customer
refunds?
A
C
Good
evening,
everyone
Vic
Kelson
utilities
director
I'm,
happy
to
bring
tonight's
approval
of
consent
agenda
for
the
totals
twenty
nine
thousand.
Fifty
eight
dollars,
Forty
Four
Cents.
The
first
item
is
four
thousand
thirty:
five
dollars
fourteen
cents
to
come
in
sales
and
service.
This
was
a
repair
of
a
fuel
leak
on
a
generator
at
the
intake.
C
The
second
is
to
Suez
analytical
instruments.
This
is
5741.80
to
calibrate
and
service
the
total
organic
carbon
analyzer
at
Monroe.
That
happens
once
a
year.
The
third
item
is
to
Corson
for
three
thousand
eighty
one
dollars:
fifty
cents
for
maintenance
to
fire
equipment
and
then,
finally,
to
westler
engineering.
Sixteen
thousand
two
hundred
dollars.
This
is
engineering
Consulting
for
the
drafting
of
the
stormwater
amendments
to
the
comprehensive
plan.
If
there
are,
would
anyone
like
to
consider
any
of
these
individually
hearing?
None?
C
A
F
A
B
F
Yeah,
it's
a
it's
a
calculation
of
the
increase
in
the
flow
okay
yeah,
so
basically
it's
their
percentage
of
use,
which
extrapolates
out
to
be
the
amount
that
they
should
pay
towards
contribution
for
the
upgrade
that
allows
them
to
even
build
these
apartments
in
the
first
place.
Right,
yes,
so
without
that
expansion
Downstream,
it's
likely
that
they
would
have
had
to
foot
a
a
larger
bill
and
have
the
ex
the
sewer
expanded
in
order
to
serve
their
capacity.
At
this.
B
A
F
A
F
A
H
Liz
Carter
I'm
the
ms4
program
coordinator,
so
this
first
one
started
construction
about
a
year
ago,
the
19th
and
done,
and
it
was
a
bunch
of
different
Parcels
that
were
owned
by
separate
property
owners
on
the
north
side
of
the
street.
Okay
and
I
think
they
didn't
have
an
address
because
they
had
so
many
Parcels
with
so
many
address
numbers
they're,
just
like
we'll
call
it
19th
and
done
till
we're
finished
the
one
that's
south
of
that.
H
H
D
D
Because
I
have
to
talk
to
the
all,
have
to
talk
to
these
people
and
I
know
them.
So
then,
what
we're
doing
on
the
the
Basin
to
the
to
the
west
of
college
in
Walnut,
we
are
actually
we're
doing
more
detailed
modeling
of
the
system
up
front
of
any
development.
So
we
can
allocate
the
incremental
addition
additional
infrastructure
and
and
have
different
developers
pay
for
that
as
well.
But
just
with
the
different
modeling
tool
is
that
correct.
G
A
F
F
Sure
so
this
one
it's
with
the
same
parties,
so
we're
still
dealing
with
touchdown
Terrace,
ll's,
touchdown,
Terrace,
South,
LLC
and
the
amount
the
amount
of
average
flow
is
2.61
percent
and
the
percentage
that
percentage
extrapolated
out
for
the
cost
of
the
sanitary
sewer
infrastructure
located
south
of
this
project
or
Downstream.
If
you
will
turns
out
to
be
64
838
dollars,
that's
a
percentage
of
the
two
and
a
roughly
two
and
a
half
million
dollar
expense.
A
Are
there
any
questions
on
this
this
one
and
thank
you
for
correcting
making
sure
we're
in
right
doing
things
properly
any
questions
on
this
one,
all
right,
all
right
hearing
none!
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
the
mou
for
420
East
19th
Street,
all
those
in
favor,
say
aye
opposed
now.
Motion
passes
right.
The
next
item
is
a
request
for
an
approval
for
the
amendment
on
a
residential,
stormwater
Grant
and
that's
Liz.
H
Liz
Carter
the
MS
core
program
coordinator,
this
residential
stormwater
Grant,
was
approved
in
the
round
of
grants
that
came
forward
in
2021
and
it
included
work
within
public
right-of-way
that
ran
across
three
different
properties
and
CBU
took
a
look
at
it
internally
and
we
kind
of
changed
our
minds
and
decided
we
wanted
to
perform
this
work
in
public
right-of-way.
That's
typically
where
we
do
our
work.
H
So
the
the
amendment
to
this
grant
reflects
the
removal
of
the
dollars
that
have
been
allocated
for
work
in
public
right-of-way
and
it
leaves
the
amount
of
the
grant
that
was
for
private
property.
Only
the
homeowner
that
lives
on
Viva
drive
has
actually
already
completed
the
work
on
the
private
property,
so
the
amount
listed
in
here
we
know
it's
the
correct
amount.
H
It's
essentially
what
her
contractor
has
invoiced
us
to
install
a
French
drain
and
then
patch
some
Pavement
in
her
driveway
and
CBU
staff
were
out
on
Viva
just
a
couple
weeks
ago
might
be
months
now,
and
we
talked
to
all
the
neighbors
involved
about
what
they
would
like
to
see
in
right-of-way.
So
there's
a
ditch,
it's
kind
of
becoming
flattened,
that's
creating
water
flow
towards
people's
houses,
so
we
talked
over
with
all
the
neighbors
along
that
way
about
out
doing
a
kind
of
like
a
vegetated
Swale.
H
We
talked
to
them
about
what
kind
of
landscaping
they'd
be
willing
to
keep
up
with
if
we
were
to
plant
it
for
them
and
I
think
we
have
a
couple
of
them
that
are
really
interested
in
doing
kind
of
more
like
rain,
Garden
type
plants.
So
our
plan
is
to
get
that
work
done
this
fall
and
then
this
grant
will
be
completely
over
and
done
with
a
few
years
later.
H
A
C
D
B
What's
that
discrepancy,
I
know
we
have
a
modem
fee
and
a
fax
fee,
but
it
looks
like
our
main
716
dollar
fee
is
still
about
sixty
dollars.
More
so
I
know
that's
like
real
nitpicky,
but
I
want
to
be.
You
know
Wise
with
our
dollars
here
and
make
sure
that
everything
matches
up
so
I
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
for
following
up
that
for
us
with
the
board
and.
H
A
E
I
G
B
Then
the
second
one
would
be
I
know
that
we've
had
plenty
of
rain
lately,
but
this
is
typically
the
time
when
we
enter
a
drought
and
then
the
last
two
years
since
we've
called
it
a
pattern
with
the
aesthetic
Taste
of
the
water.
Is
that
also
on
your
list
or
no
okay?
So
I
just
wondered
since
we're
entering
this
time.
Let's
say
like
we
had
all
this
rain
this
week
and
then
it
never
rains
again
for
two
months
like
when
do
we
start
monitoring
that?
Oh.
B
C
We
monitor
for
algae,
we
monitor
for
algae
in
the
water
and
lots
of
populations.
We're
also
do
sample
for
the
taste
and
odor
compounds,
they're
called
MIB
and
giasmin.
We
right
now
are
doing
jar
testing
at
the
plant.
We
have
an
intern.
There
has
been
really
working
hard
at
running
jar
tests,
exploring
different
kinds
of
activated
carbon
that
could
be
used
because
some
is
made
from
coconut
and
some
is
made
from
they're
all
different
coal
and
all
different
kinds
of
things.
C
So
the
idea
is
to
there
are
varieties
of
activated
carbon
that
are
particularly
good
for
certain
things,
but
are
more
expensive,
so
we're
looking
into
the
what
our
ability
would
be
to
say,
switch
or
have
some
some
either
to
raise
the
amount
of
carbon
that
we
act,
that
we
use
when
we're
anticipating,
taste
and
odor
issues
or
possibly
use
something,
that's
more
effective.
So
we
are
in
the
process
of
doing
jar,
testing
and
experimentation
to
figure
out
what
we
can
do
without
actually
having
to
buy
a
bunch
of
equipment.
C
B
C
E
C
C
A
C
H
Yeah
this
was
a
question
two
weeks
ago,
so
I
got
with
my
staff
and
we
have
a
very
cool
map
here
of
the
mechanical
bmps
at
Miller
showers.
There
are
the
red
dots,
so
the
three
in
the
Middle,
where
the
leaders
are
kind
of
making
a
spider
web
towards
them.
Those
were
cleaned
out
in
February
of
this
year,
so
very
recently,
the
north,
the
northernmost
and
the
southernmost
have
not
been
cleaned
out
since
2015..
H
My
staff
told
me
that
was
because
the
vac
truck
could
not
access
them
as
it
is.
It
needs
like
an
extender
onto
the
vacuum
arm
to
get
to
the
like
the
where
you
lift
the
lid
and
vacuum
out
all
the
gross
stuff,
so
they
can't
get
there
without
having
to
drive
over
the
sidewalks
that
belongs
to
parks,
and
that
would
certainly
break
the
sidewalks,
because
the
back
truck
is
very
heavy,
so
they're
working
with
tnd
to
get
like
an
extender
for
the
vac
truck,
so
they
can
get
to
those
two
sites.
D
H
Think
that
might
have
been
true,
but
they
are
definitely
on
our
radar
now,
if
you
ever
want
to
give
a
presentation
a
few
months
ago,
there's
a
picture
of
a
beaver
at
the
end,
that's
where
they
discovered
the
beaver
when
they
were
cleaning
out
those
three
in
the
middle.
They
just
can't
figure
out
a
way
to
get
to
the
northernmost
and
southernmost
without
getting
some
additional
tubing
to
get
there.
C
Okay
back
to
me,
we
do
have
new
staff
since
our
last
the
last
time,
I
I,
provided
this
information
we'll
be
doing
this
monthly
in
the
future.
First
is
Kaden
Swanson
who
joins
us
as
a
utilities
engineer
that
position
has
been
vacant
since
Phil
took
over
as
assistant
director.
So
that's
a
great
thing.
Kieran
Corcoran
has
joined
us
as
a
Communications
operator.
C
Kenneth
larman
joins
us
as
a
specialized
crew
leader
in
tnd
and
Emily
Tate
joins
us
as
an
administrative
assistant
in
tnd.
We
also
have
one
in
a
departmental
move.
A
case
and
Page
has
moved
over
to
be
the
to
work,
to
be
the
temporary
sorry
to
be
the
full-time
water
quality
assistant
in
in
the
environmental
division.
C
We
also
have
three
employees
who
completed
internal
training
programs
to
become
specialized
crew
leaders,
that's
Andrew,
Bowden,
Brad,
Elkins
and
David
Pittman
they're.
All
now
specialized
crew
leaders
in
tnd
Kaylee
Bollinger
at
Dillman,
has
passed
the
Wastewater
class
II
a
license.
Exam
she's,
so
she's
now
classified
as
a
class
two
Apprentice,
because
she
needs
to
complete
her
in-service
time
before
she's.
C
Officially
licensed
and
Doug
story
from
our
Monroe
plant
took
the
Wastewater
class
one
license
and
passed
it
and
then
finally,
we
have,
as,
as
you
know,
the
question
of
CDL
licenses
has
been
a
big
one.
Lately
the
city
had
developed
a
program
for
getting
CDL
training
for
employees
at
the
city's
cost,
and
we
have
three
people
who've
completed
it
Blake
McClintock,
Zach,
Paulo
and
Kenneth
larman.
All
in
tnd
have
have
completed
the
cdlb
license,
training
so
they're
the
first,
the
first
group
to
graduate
from
that.
C
C
With
the
author,
one
of
the
authors
of
the
program
that
will
be
this
Friday
at
the
IU
Golf
Course
meeting
room
board
members
are
welcome
to
to
join
us
for
that.
The
executive
staff
will
be
there
for
that,
and
certainly
would
love
to
have
board
members
there
to
talk
about
what
we're
doing.
You
know
what
we're
doing
well
and
what
we
need
to
do.
C
So
I
will
make
sure
the
the
the
details
of
the
time
are
sent
your
way,
but
it's
it's
most
of
the
day
with
a
and
we'll
have
lunch
there
so
but
they'll
be
there
at
the
golf
course
training
room.
Do
you
think
if
it's
possible
there
are
four
people
who
are
in
four
board
members
who
are
interested?
We
will
need
to
advertise
it.
So
I
would
want
to
get
an
idea.
Do
you
think
we
should
just
go
ahead
and
advertise
it
as
possibly
having
a
majority
of
the
board
present.
G
B
D
C
C
Basically,
the
eum
breaks
breaks
down
all
of
the
activities
that
you
do
in
managing
a
utilities
organization
into
into
category
groups,
so
there's
like
operational
efficiency
and
customer
service
and
all
the
all
the
different
things
so,
rather
than
breaking
and
and
you've
seen
it
in
our
budget.
The
last
several
years
we
used
to
organize
the
budget
presentation
by
saying
now
we're
going
to
talk
about
water.
Now
we're
going
to
talk
about
sewer
and
now
we're
going
to
talk
about
storm.
C
A
kickoff
and
discussion
and
sort
of
a
it'll
be
it
includes
a
an
exercise
and-
and
we
did
it
at
a
board
meeting
four
years
ago,
if
it
was
pre-pandemic
where
we
had
the
big
sheet
and
we
we
put
the
marks
on
it
as
to
where
we
thought
we
were
in
the
different.
You
know,
and
it's
basically,
one
of
the
activities
you
do
starting
out
is
looking
at.
C
What
do
you
think
are
the
most
important
you
know
rate
these
different
categories
in
terms
of
how
important
they
are,
and
then
rate
these
categories
as
to
how
well
you
think,
we're
doing
at
them
and
that
wasn't
that's
an
interesting
exercise,
just
as
a
first
look
at
at
where
we
are
so
so
that'll
be
part
of
it,
and
you
know
we
got
new.
We
got
a
new
team
now
and
we're
going
to
be,
but
then
we'll
go
through
the
training
on
on
all
of
that
and
the
the
whole
organizational
plan
at
this
time.
C
C
C
C
That
and
then
the
then
the
last
thing
I
want
to
talk
about
is
the
storm
which
happened
while
I
was
in
Maine
and
I
didn't
even
know
about
it.
I
didn't
even
know.
There
was
a
storm
until
I
heard
from
Kirk
asking
me
how
things
turned
out.
The
Wastewater
plants
had
short
outages
and
came
right
back
power
came
right,
back,
I
have
Monroe
at
the
plant.
The
power
came
right
back,
but
the
power
did
not
come
right
back
at
the
intake.
C
They
struggled
with
it
for
a
while
and
had
ultimately
had
contractors
come
in
to
look
through
what
had
happened.
What
it
appears
happened
is
there
was
a
failure
in
a
relay
that
caused
the
the
interlock
to
not
turn
off
when
the
generator
was
not
in
service.
So,
basically,
what
happened
is
you
couldn't
run
the
generator
and
you
couldn't
run
off
of
Duke
power,
because
the
center
lot
kept
switching
I
say
turn
it
on.
It
would
come
on
for
10
or
15
seconds
and
turn
right
off.
C
They
were
able
to
find
that
and
disable
the
thing
that
was
locking
us
out.
So
the
plant
came
right
back
up.
We
were
down
altogether
about
10
hours
or
so
10
to
12
hours
and
then
during
that
time,
by
coincidence
you
know
we're
doing
the
big
project
right
now
to
replace
the
bar
screens
and
because
of
that,
we
have
that
temporary
intake
has
been
deployed
down
there
for
for
use
during
the
bar
screen
project,
when
we
may
have
to
turn
off
pairs
of
pumps.
C
So
it's
there
for
backup
and
they
did
run
that
during
the
during
the
outage.
So
we
were
able
to
make
six
or
seven
mg
during
that
time,
so
we
were
able
to
keep
tank
levels
up
pretty
well,
and
things
are
mostly
back
to
normal.
Now
so
yeah
it
was
an
adventure.
Storm
water
cruise
obviously
had
a
lot
to
deal
with,
with
inlets
and
and
so
forth.
C
But
everybody
put
in
a
lot
of
time
and
and
I
wasn't
here,
but
when
I
came
back,
it
looked
like
they'd
done
a
fine
job
and
I
just
want
to
thank
everybody
for
all
the
time,
an
effort
that
went
into
all
of
that
and
and
I
like
to
think
that
our
Duke
partners
for
making
sure
the
power
got
back
on
at
the
plants
as
fast
as
possible.
We
were
struggling
with
some
lift
stations
as
well.
C
F
B
B
C
B
C
B
J
I
think
we
did
pretty
well
because
it
could
have
been
a
lot
worse
when
I
saw
the
Duke
Maps
Thursday
night
I'd
never
seen
anything
like
that
before
I
was
shocked
back
since
I
was
County
Commissioner
and
had
to
start
looking
at
that
stuff.
I
thought
this
is
a
disaster
I
just
I
couldn't
imagine
how
Duke
was
going
to
get
this
stuff
up
for
days
and
the
map
was
50
percent
blue.
The
county
was
50
down
and
we
looked
at.
You
know:
I
thought
my
gosh
there's
got
to
be.
J
C
J
One
of
the
things
that
you
know
I've
learned
from
my
Army
experiences
when
you
have
a
sit
and
you
go
through
an
exercise
like
this.
The
best
thing
to
do
is
learn
from
the
mistakes,
so
I
think
that
I
don't
know
if
we
made
any
mistakes,
but
we
sure
had
an
experience
and
so
what
I
would
recommend?
Is
you
get
the
team
together
that
that
had
to
struggle
through
this?
J
C
That's
actually
one
of
the
things
that's
been
an
ongoing
effort
for
the
last
few
years
is
to
I.
Think
I,
don't
know.
If
you
remember
this,
we
had
an
instance
where
there
had
been
a
power
outage.
Everything
came
back
except
they
discovered,
but
the
the
scada
system
wasn't
work,
wasn't
working
properly
and
we
could
only
they
discovered
that
we
could
only
run
one
pump
manually
at
the
intake.
C
J
C
C
Little
bit,
okay,
but
what
the
question
there
is
that
we
have
five
million
gallons
at
Monroe
at
any
given
time
that
we
can
use
to
replenish
tanks
as
they
as
their
levels
fall.
So,
in
addition
to
whatever
storage
there
is
in
the
local
tanks,
we
can
replenish
to
some
degree
from
the
5
million
gallon
tank
at
Monroe.
J
J
Just
means
that
it's
important
and
and
that's
good,
well
yeah
I'm
eternally
grateful
for
not
only
the
water
team
that
got
Monroe
back
up,
but
again,
all
the
the
storm
water
people
that
had
to
be
working,
because
we
had
a
lot
of
stuff
in
the
streets
that
were
causing
local
Street
flooding
and
things,
and
that
takes
a
lot
of
work
all
night.
So
thanks,
please
pass
that
along
I.
Certainly.
