Utilities reports staffing changes and recent large leaks; engineering highlights completed 2025 construction season
Summary
Utilities reported a promotion and a new hire and said crews responded to a 100 GPM and a 60 GPM leak in Tahoe Cedars; engineering noted several notices of completion and retention releases and credited the 2025 construction season's productivity.
Dan Lewis highlighted personnel changes in the utilities department, announcing the promotion of Pat Potter to Operations Specialist 3 and the hiring of Mike Edwards (formerly with Kingsbury Improvement District), whose start date was the Monday before the meeting.
Lewis also said crews recently addressed two large leaks in Tahoe Cedars—a roughly 100 gallons per minute leak and a roughly 60 gallons per minute leak—underscoring ongoing operational reasons for the Tahoe Cedars work. "So just reaffirming our our efforts on why we're doing what we're doing, in Tahoe Cedars," he said.
Engineering staff added that many notices of completion and retention releases would appear on the consent agenda in December and January and thanked the team for a successful 2025 construction season with multiple projects completed within budget and on schedule. The committee adjourned at 08:54.
