An updated letter will be sent to customers to let them know we are out of violation when the DNR removes the violation. Commission went out of order from the agenda Water Operator Position Request – Kuhn has been looking at succession planning and believes the time to hire a water operator is upon the utility. Kuhn’s original plan to suggest a water operator was going to be in 2026. This would allow the new hire 2 years to get their water certification and 1 year of acclimation. It is become more apparent that fine details are being missed and the water operator should be hired now. Pytleski asked for the utility to have an organizational chart. Kuhn asked to amend the 2025 budget to hire a water operator. The budget impact lands on the electric utility because all lineman wages will now be accounted in the electric utility, instead of a portion of their wages going to the water utility. Coopman asked if hiring a water operator would affect the rate case. Kuhn stated it would but would not be a significant impact. It was moved by Anastasopoulos, seconded by Schindel, to recommend to Council the hiring of a water operator and to amend the budget to allow this.

The 10 year work plan is not a concrete plan and will be revised and reviewed as necessary. WATER Update Ordinance 455 -49 Inspections on Cross Connections – A decision was made a few months ago to make commercial properties pay for cross connections. The update to Ordinance 455 -49 gives the utility leverage to have a firm, that the utility retains, perform cross connections for commercial properties who do not have the cross connection done on their own. It was moved by Pytleski, seconded by Anastasopoulos, to recommend to the ordinance committee the update to City Ordinance 455-49 – Inspections on Cross Connections. Roll call: Pytleski, Anastasopoulos, Coopman, Schindel, and Kardoskee, voting aye. Motion carried. There being no other business, the meeting was adjourned at 6:56 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Beth Rank, Customer Service Representative CUSTOM METAL SPECIALISTS, LLC 333 NORTH MUNSERT AVENUE OCONTO FALLS, WI 54154 PHONE 920-846-2670 FAX 920-846-2640 February 19, 2025 City of Oconto Falls Attn: Wally Remic Subject: Truck Bed Liner Proposal # CMS-25079 Dear Wally; We herewith propose to furnish, as specified below, all labor, material, equipment, and tools to perform the subject for a FIRM PRICE as detailed below.
