35 Chair Cihacek inquired when looking at the summer versus winter water rates, is it <br />36 possible to determine drivers of the increases and decreases between the quarters. <br />37 <br />38 Mr. Freihammer stated staff could take a quick look at that to see if anything sticks <br />39 out. <br />40 <br />41 Chair Cihacek thought the Commission wanted to determine is are the differences <br />42 because of irrigation or because of industrial use. He asked staff to find out why <br />43 there are differences seasonally in water rates for businesses because he thought <br />44 that would be helpful. <br />45 <br />46 Member Wozniak stated as part of the data dive, was staff interested in looking at <br />47 conservation rates that other municipalities have put in place or is staff focused on <br />48 Roseville. <br />49 <br />50 Mr. Culver thought a little research was done on that, but staff could do more as far <br />51 as what other communities are doing for conservation rates. <br />52 <br />53 Member Wozniak stated when he was looking through information on this topic, <br />54 he found that Richfield adopted some water conservation rating structure a number <br />55 of years ago and thought staff could look at that. <br />56 <br />57 Member Kruse stated on the map for the 2019 projects did the County change the <br />58 project on Lexington Avenue. <br />59 <br />60 Mr. Freihammer indicated the County did change the project.

He thought it would be <br />69 later in the summer 2019. <br />70 <br />71 Member Wozniak stated he has received a notice to start a water siphon two weeks <br />72 ago, so his water is really cold right now because it is running all of the time. <br />73 <br />74 Mr. Culver stated there are many services in the City of Roseville that are shallow <br />75 and the residents that are on the freeze list have generally experienced an issue at <br />76 some point so the City sends out a letter to the residents once the frost depth hits a <br />77 certain level recommending the residents to start running water to prevent freezing <br />78 and the City gives the resident credit on their bill for constantly running the water. <br />79 He indicated a few years ago in 2014 when frost was five -six feet deep and there <br />80 were many services that froze up, so a second list was created but the City has not <br />Page 2 of 7 <br />
