5777110 · September 8, 2025

Summary

At the meeting the commission approved the minutes, a bundle of consent items and specific agenda items including the smart-meter administration item, a district cooling billing upgrade and a three-year subscription with eSource; votes were recorded as voice approvals during the session.

The commission moved and approved the meeting minutes at the start of the session. Commissioners then approved a bundle of consent items (agenda items 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11 and 12) by voice vote after a motion by Josh and a second by Al.

Separate agenda items that were discussed and approved by voice vote during the meeting included:

- Agenda item 3: matter related to meter-reading operations and opt-out administration (details discussed in public session; staff to provide follow-up cost estimate). Motion moved by Josh, seconded by Chris; approved by voice vote.

- Agenda item 4: district cooling billing system upgrade. Motion moved by Al, seconded by Saisar; approved by voice vote. Staff to provide additional reporting on district cooling profitability and viability on request.

- Agenda item 9: three-year subscription contract with eSource for market data, household surveys and benchmarking services (contract includes two one-year extension options). Motion moved by Cyrus, seconded by Al; approved by voice vote. Staff will confirm survey scope and explore whether other departments can access eSource products.

Where the transcript did not provide an exact roll-call tally, items were approved by oral voice vote and recorded in the meeting as "aye." The transcript did not provide ordinance or resolution numbers for the listed items; those are recorded in meeting materials that accompany the agenda.
