Roseville Public Works, Environment and Transportation Commission <br />Agenda Item <br />DATE: February 25, 2025 ITEM: 6.a. <br />ITEM DESCRIPTION: City Water Meter Discussion <br />Background <br />At the April 26, 2010 City Council meeting, the Council approved an implementation plan for a Neptune <br />fixed -base, two-way Automatic Meter Read (AMR) system for water meter reading. This R-450 system <br />consists of a radio at each meter that transmits to collector on a tower. The City owns four collectors. The <br />system allows for meter reads to be done automatically instead of in person or via a drive -by system. It also <br />allows meters to be read daily, so leak detection can be found earlier or readings can be made when <br />properties are sold. Between 2010 and 2015, the majority of the City's 10,711 water meters in Roseville <br />were replaced and AMR radios were installed. <br />The City is looking to upgrade the AMR system and meters over the next few years. Staff will provide <br />information on the need for the upgrade, the benefits of the new system and the cost to upgrade the system <br />over the new 5-7 years. <br />Recommendation <br />Receive presentation and provide feedback. <br />Attachments <br />None <br />Page 42 of 43 <br />
