mailings. Mr. Culver sought clarification from Ms. Shiwarski as to whether a resident <br />would continue being solicited once they subscribed to the program. <br />Ms. Shiwarski advised that they would not receive additional solicitations for any service <br />to which they subscribed, but may receive them for those services they had initially chosen <br />not to receive. However, Ms. Shiwarski noted that all a resident had to do was call their <br />firm and ask to be removed from future mailings. Ms. Shiwarski advised that their firm <br />used their own mailing list by using their own mapping software, and not one provided by <br />the city’s utility company. Ms. Shiwarski advised that this way a city could state they were <br />introducing this warranty program and assure their residents that the city wasn’t giving out <br />their personal utility information. <br />Chair Stenlund asked, without doing a community survey, if the city could seek interest of <br />the community via an educational input, and receive their input to alert the public that this <br />warranty program was being considered and seeking public comment and interest for such <br />a program. <br />Mr. Culver suggested the Speak Up! Roseville website as another potential option. <br />If Roseville is interested, Ms. Shiwarski offered the services of their marketing team to <br />help put that information out there. <br />Members agreed that there may be some concern among residents of another area of <br />government intervention that they would prefer to avoid. <br />Member Cihacek opined that, as he heard the program described, he wasn’t sure if that <br />argument would hold weight for him, since residents had the option of accepting or opting <br />out. <br />Member Lenz opined she found this fascinating, admitting before appointment to the <br />PWETC, she had been unaware of her responsibilities as a homeowner for this <br />infrastructure. <br />Member Seigler opined he was ready to sign up now. <br />At the request of Member Cihacek, Ms. Shiwarski advised the agreement between their <br />warranty firm and a municipality was three years, with a 90-day opt out for either party. <br />Mr. Culver asked, if the city decided for whatever reason to discontinue the program after <br />initially approving it, what would happen to those residents enrolled in the warranty <br />program or whether they would be automatically removed from the program. <br />Ms. Shiwarski advised that any current customers would continue their service provided <br />they continued their monthly premium payment; but no new customers would be enrolled. <br />Motion <br /> <br />
