<br /> . . <br /> . Subcommittee Study Process: <br /> 0 Determine the positive and negative factors with the present water meter <br /> system. Consider the adequacies and inadequacies of the present <br /> technology, maintenance costs, and time and resources to read meters <br /> & to process quarterly billings. <br /> 0 Examine the technical and cost implications of off-the-shelf water <br /> metering systems considering acquisition, installation & maintenance <br /> costs; market availability; and cost effectiveness of meter reading and <br /> billing labor. Explore all alternative technologies. <br /> 0 Conduct a User Survey of existing system users to determine customer <br /> satisfaction. <br /> 0 Develop an Implementation Plan which would consider: <br /> 1. Purchase Cost <br /> 2. Installation Cost <br /> 3. Maintenance Cost <br /> 4. Procurement and Installation/In-Service Schedule, <br /> 5. Budget and Funding alternatives. <br /> . Evaluation of Audit of Residential Water Meterino Svstem: <br /> The subcommittee reviewed the Residential Water Usage data collected by the Public <br /> Works Department. The staff found the following conditions: <br /> 0 A random sample testing of residential meters indicated over 50% <br /> did not meet minimum standards for proper operation. The older <br /> style meters are an average age of 15 years and are being used <br /> beyond their life expectancy. <br /> 0 Mail in cards from customers revealed that in most instances the <br /> meters were understating actual usage. <br /> 0 The present meter reading and billing process is very labor <br /> intensive and can be improved. <br /> The subcommittee determined that with the recent history of water utility revenue loss <br /> with the City of Roseville and with the Public Works random test findings of meter <br /> errors, it would be appropriate for us to recommend to the council that it would be <br /> cost effective to upgrade the present Water Metering System. . <br /> . -2- <br />
