Menno to solicit bids for smart water meters after prior presentations
Summary
The council directed staff to advertise for bids for new smart water meters, citing earlier presentations on advanced metering infrastructure that could improve customer service and measurement accuracy.
The council moved to advertise for bids for new water meters after prior presentations in January and February examined smart water meter technology and advanced metering infrastructure systems. Councilmember Jacob Mettler moved to make bid specifications and packets available at the Finance Office; the motion was seconded and approved with all votes "aye." The minutes note the city currently uses mechanical water meters.
Council discussion included possible financing options to purchase updated meters intended to improve customer service, reduce costs and provide more accurate water measurement. The Finance Office will manage the bid process and provide specifications for interested vendors.
