The Grand Rapids Public Utilities Commission met on Oct. 30 in a brief, rescheduled session and approved a consent agenda that included several contracts, the commission’s recap said.

Julie Kennedy, summarizing the meeting, said the session had been moved from Oct. 23 because the commission lacked a quorum. “Pretty short meeting here today,” she said. “We went through a consent agenda approving some contracts and then got into our quarter 3 scorecard review.”

Kennedy described the quarter‑three scorecard as an update on the utility’s strategic plan and annual plan initiatives; the transcript notes the commission receives quarterly updates on those initiatives but does not include detailed scorecard metrics or discussion points. The transcript did not specify which contracts were approved during the consent agenda or provide names of movers/seconders or a vote tally.

The meeting concluded with staff updates and a reminder about the lead and copper service line inventory and customer mailings.

Next steps: no formal votes or other formal actions beyond the consent agenda were recorded in the transcript excerpts provided; full meeting minutes or the agenda packet may contain detailed contract and scorecard information.
