Mr. Culver referenced multiple solutions presented by staff previously for <br />the PWETC's research and review, in addition to the liability caps proposed <br />as an option by Member Seigler as a starting discussion point. Mr. Culver <br />noted the need for more information as well as financial analyses. <br />Member Seigler expressed interest in learning of any insurance companies <br />covering water line damage/freezing, similar to those offering supplemental <br />coverage for sanitary sewer backups; and suggested an expert in the field <br />could be asked to provide an overview or present more information to the <br />PWETC. <br />Mr. Culver reported that the City's insurance partner, League of Minnesota <br />Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT), could present that information. <br />Member Cihacek expressed interest in a program for the water utility, such <br />as done with sanitary sewer, in capping the cost for the City with some <br />funding provided; but at what point it can or should be provided; requesting <br />an update from staff on the process if the information is not currently <br />available. <br />Mr. Culver advised that staff would begin its analysis, including <br />adjustments needed for existing rates as an option for funding that prospect. <br />Member Cihacek suggested one option may be a self-insurance fund, with <br />additional information needed in how such a fund could be structured and <br />how to ensure it would remain solvent over time; and what funds could or <br />could not be used for that, including repairs and/or secondary costs. <br />Also, Chair Stenlund expressed interest in defining if and when construction <br />projects or maintenance efforts provided a view of those lateral ports on the <br />City side versus their connection to the main; and how and when a clean- <br />out maintenance program could be implemented. <br />Member Lenz asked for a graphic explanation and brief summary of how to <br />better understand the how and where of those connections, etc. <br />Mr. Culver offered to start with that "Sewer 101" overview at the September <br />meeting as a good starting point. With this topic part of a Roseville <br />University session scheduled one to two weeks after the September PWETC <br />meeting, Mr. Culver noted it would provide an incentive to get those <br />materials prepared sooner rather than later. <br />Mr. Culver asked if September's PWETC meeting was focusing on sewer <br />issues, should the October meeting focus on the water service. <br />Page 9 of 13 <br />
