PWETC. Since that representative would be coming from Philadelphia, Mr. Culver sought to confirm the interest of the PWETC in such a presentation for next month, noting that this also affected the next discussion about meeting schedules during the holiday months, advising that the next PWETC meeting was scheduled the Tuesday of Thanksgiving week. Mr. Culver sought the preference of the PWETC for a presentation tonight or next month, or simply a brief review of the water system tonight for background information and delay detailed conversations until next month. By consensus, Chair Stenlund asked Mr. Culver to review the general water distribution service for the city for background information purposes, with further detail of both the water and sewer systems then at next month's meeting where hopefully all PWETC members will be available. However, Chair Stenlund moved to Agenda Item 7 first to establish next month's PWETC agenda and confirmation for meetings in November and December at the discretion of the body. 7. Review November Agenda • 2016 Work Plan • Joint Sanitary Sewer and Water Distribution System Discussion Continuation • Skating Center Solar Project Update and Agreement Review Mr. Culver advised that staff continued to wait for the third party contractor to finalize financial information for tax credits, which was taking longer than the contractor or staff anticipated. However, with the project not slated until April of 2016, Mr. Culver reported that the delay should not be a problem, anticipating the PWETC could easily address at their January meeting, and still allow sufficient time to meet that proposed installation timetable. • Bus Rapid Transit Update Chair Stenlund noted his interest in receiving comparison uses between regular and BRT bus routes. Mr. Culver suggested that comparison may not be available in any meaningful or detailed way until the end of 2016 or early 2017. Mr. Culver noted that the PWETC may have observed that there wasn't a lot of activity occurring at BRT station sites in Roseville; and based on his most recent conversation with Metro Transit's construction manager, Mr. Culver reported that the projects continued to run behind schedule. Given the approaching winter season, Mr. Culver advised that he anticipated work being suspended until next spring. Member Seigler moved, Member Lenz seconded, a motion to CANCEL the December PWETC meeting due to the holiday. Ayes: 4 Page 13 of 18
