Council asks departments to analyze potential revenue from a hydro vacuum trailer and lighting projects
Summary
Councilman Turman asked if an Electric Department hydro vacuum trailer could generate revenue; Electric Superintendent Bridge said it might be possible pending statutory review and asked departments to calculate numbers for the council.
Councilman Turman raised a possible revenue opportunity for the Electric Department by purchasing a hydro vacuum trailer and offering services externally. Electric Superintendent Bridge said the idea "could" yield revenue but that he would need to review statutes to determine whether it would be allowed and asked for time to calculate specific numbers.
Turman asked departments to return to the council with projected figures. The exchange also covered potential lighting around Laing Lake, which Bridge said could be done but would require determining precise locations and related costs.
