MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER:
August 9, 2016 6.1c
SUBJECT:
Staff Update
DISCUSSION:
• Had ten new services.
• Continue working on collecting data with the GPS for our ArcView maps as time
permits.
• Continue rebuilding River Ranch in Otsego.
• Continue working on changing out some of the rusty junction boxes and removing ones
that are no longer necessary. During the process of going through these areas,we also
install fuse pads for better sectionalizing when a fault occurs.
• Installing a new three phase service for P&F Machining in Otsego. The City of Otsego is
also extending the road south of Twin City Orthopedics which will need infrastructure
installed once they get the right of way to rough grade.
• Started installing a new feeder that will run from the east side of HWY 169 by GRE to
the east side of HWY 10 across from Nature's Edge Business Center. This feeder will
give us a feeder loop under HWY 10 to be used when we acquire area two from
Connexus.
• Changed out five of the eight poles that didn't pass inspection. We're looking at
underground options for the other three poles.
