Fremont council authorizes up to $713,690 to buy AMI electric meters
Summary
The City of Fremont authorized Resolution 2026-192 to purchase electric meters for an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) system in an estimated amount of $713,690 and directed utilities staff to proceed with procurement steps.
The Fremont City Council on July 28, 2026 authorized Resolution 2026-192 to purchase electric meters for an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) system in an estimated amount of $713,690. The motion passed 8-0.
The minutes record that Councilmember Horner moved to authorize the purchase and Councilmember Vaughan seconded; the council directed the Department of Utilities to advance procurement and report back with contract and implementation details. The resolution identifies the AMI purchase as a project for the utilities department; the minutes state the dollar amount as an estimate and do not specify a vendor or contract award date.
Staff follow-up tasks recorded in the minutes include procurement and a requested timeline for installation; the Department of Utilities will implement new meters after contract execution and scheduling. The council’s vote authorizes the purchase but the minutes show implementation details — including vendor selection, contract terms, and installation schedule — remain to be finalized and reported to the council.
