Summary
Troy Shelton of Zenner USA presented an ultrasonic water meter and a townwide advanced metering infrastructure cost proposal to the Plainfield City Council during its Jan. 15 budget work session; council members asked questions but made no recorded decision.
Troy Shelton, Regional Sales Manager for Zenner USA, presented the Zenner Ultrasonic water meter and a cost proposal to the Plainfield City Council at its Jan. 15, 2025 budget work session.
The presentation outlined a proposed townwide upgrade to an advanced metering infrastructure; Shelton answered multiple questions from Mayor Thomas Geise and council members during the demonstration. The transcript notes Shelton exited the meeting at 5:45 p.m. but does not record a decision to purchase equipment or award a contract.
Council members pressed Shelton with questions during the session, according to the meeting record, and Shelton responded to those inquiries. The council did not take a formal vote on procurement or direct staff in the transcript excerpt. The agenda had been approved earlier in the session by motion of Council Member Jamison Downing, seconded by Council Member Joseph Schmall; the clerk recorded "Ayes: All. Motion carried."
The presentation was part of a broader Fiscal Year 2025–2026 budget review that evening; any budgetary or procurement steps that would follow the presentation — including formal requests for proposals, contract terms, financing, or timeline for installation — are not recorded in the transcript.
