Jim March <br /> 1880 Main St, <br /> Centerville, MN 55038 <br /> Re: Sensus Technologies Automatic Meter Reading Systems Proposal. <br /> Thank you for the hospitality afforded to me at the February 12th council meeting <br /> during which you were presented with several different forms of Automatic Meter <br /> Reading or AMR. <br /> As discussed, your community has roughly 325 metered services now with the <br /> potential for nearly 350 more in the next 2 -3 years. Many communities including <br /> the City of Hugo are taking advantage of this growth period to install Phonkead <br /> (as in the case of Hugo) or RadioRead because the contractors are paying for <br /> the system equipment in the building permit fee. Every account that isn't initially <br /> equipped with some form of AMR when newly built, will perhaps be converted <br /> with the total cost being covered and accounted for by the utility in Some <br /> surcharge or rate structure adjustment. As you know, public relations can suffer <br /> when these discussions present themselves. <br /> The water meters in your system are manufactured by Sensus and are equipped <br /> with Electronic Communications Registers or ECR's. The meters have the <br /> capability of being incorporated into any of the following systems without any <br /> modification or reprogramming. <br /> Please review the following opportunities available to you and accept my <br /> recommendation at the close of this correspondence with the confidence that <br /> this course of action has the ability to benefit your community as much as it has <br /> for many of your neighbors. <br />
