Board approves plan to install single central meter at county lake to reduce winter minimum charges
Summary
County staff proposed removing 10–11 individual lake meters and installing a single central meter, presenting an upfront materials estimate and a projected payback in about two years; the board voted to authorize installation, though transcript shows inconsistent dollar amounts for the upfront cost.
County staff identified as Doug proposed replacing multiple individual meters at the county lake with one central meter to eliminate recurring minimum monthly fees that currently apply to each meter.
Doug said the materials estimate was "$6,683.22" in discussion and that "in two years, it pays for itself." A committee member then moved "to give Doug the authority to put in 1 central meter out the lake for a total of $6,583.22 to come out of the lake budget." The motion was seconded and the board voted "aye," with the chair declaring the motion carried. The transcript records inconsistent figures (discussion: $6,683.22; motion: $6,583.22); the board did not provide a written contract figure on the record during the meeting.
