SUBJECT:
UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING
FROM:
Jennie Nelson — Customer Service Manager
AGENDA ITEM NUMBER:
6.2
The City of Dayton Franchise Ordinance
ACTION REQUESTED:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Dayton is proposing an Electric Service Franchise Fee Ordinance, similar to the City
of Elk River, which would require ERMU to bill franchise fees on behalf of the city to its
customers in Dayton. In that planning process, the City of Dayton learned that there is not an
Electric Franchise Ordinance on file for ERMU, which is needed to implement the Electric
Service Franchise Fee Ordinance.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Dayton has drafted an Electric Franchise Ordinance, which will be brought to their
City Council on August 27, and an Electric Service Franchise Fee Ordinance that will be brought
to their City Council in September. Our attorney has reviewed both of the documents and has
some minor language revisions he would like to apply to the Electric Franchise Ordinance. He is
working directly with the City of Dayton's attorney's office. We will bring the final language
back to the Commission in September for acceptance.
