629 Member Lenz opined she found this fascinating, admitting before appointment to <br />630 the PWETC, she had been unaware of her responsibilities as a homeowner for this <br />631 infrastructure. <br />632 <br />633 Member Seigler opined he was ready to sign up now. <br />634 <br />635 At the request of Member Cihacek, Ms. Shiwarski advised the agreement between <br />636 their warranty firm and a municipality was three years, with a 90 -day opt out for <br />637 either party. <br />638 uuilllll <br />639 Mr. Culver asked, if the city decided for whatever reason to discontinue the <br />640 program after initially approving it, what would happen to those residents enrolled <br />641 in the warranty program or whether they would be automatically removed from the <br />642 program. <br />643 <br />644 Ms. Shiwarski advised that any current customers would continue their service <br />645 provided they continued their month l remium payment; but no new customers <br />646 would be enrolled. <br />647 <br />648 Motion 111N fth, <br />649 Member Cihacek moved, Member Lenz seconded, recommending to the City <br />650 Council that they pursue a potential agreement for this warranty opportunity <br />651 with Utility Service Partners.°iilllllll <br />652 <br />653 At the request of Member Seigler, Mr. Culver reported that he saw many positives <br />654 for this warranty program and the only staff conce'rW or negative he was aware of <br />655 to -date was removing any incentive"for residents to think long-term and consider <br />656 proactibi <br />m aintenance of their. system. Mr. Culver opined that any resident <br />657 subscrto this warranty prograw see no need to spend money on their <br />658 line to protect against any current or future problems (e.g. root invasion). <br />659 4 <br />660 Chair Stenlund concurred, notin that lack of interest would also be evident when <br />661 a street construction proj ect in ea provided a good opportunity for that proactive <br />662 maintena ce or line replacement. <br />663 <br />664 Mr. Stenlu d advised that participation in this program would come into play with <br />665 the City's I & I issues and requirements of the city by the Metropolitan Council to <br />666 respond to and reduce that sanitary infiltration and inflow. If residents were not <br />667 incented to be proactive in lining their sanitary lines, those cracked lines would <br />668 continue to seep into the groundwater. However, Mr. Culver noted that the issue <br />669 could still be resolved by implementing a point-of-sale requirement such as done <br />670 by the City of Golden Valley and other municipalities. Mr. Culver advised that the <br />671 city could work toward that even with this program in place and provide a financial <br />672 savings to residents as well as easing their peace of mind. As Ms. Shiwarski stated, <br />673 Mr. Culver agreed that the city was the first call made by a resident. Mr. Culver <br />Page 15 of 18 <br />
