          ELECTRIC SUPPLIER OPTIONS TO THE CITY.

          [5.A.II. 911 Call Answering and Public Safety Dispatching Services]
DO THE 911 PRESENTATION FIST IF IT WOULD IT WOULD BE OKAY TO HAVE A REORDERING OF THE AGENDA. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: ANY OBJECTIONS TO REORDERING? 
          NO, GO RIGHT AHEAD. >> M. GREESON: THERE IS A MOTION AND A SECOND. IT'S INTRODUCED. 
          FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU FOR ADJUSTING THE AGENDA TO INCLUDE THE 911 PUBLIC CALL AND SAFETY DISPATCHING AGENDA ITEM. 
          YOU HAVE A HEFTY AGENDA THIS EVENING WITH IMPORTANT TOPICS ALL OF THEM, SO WE'LL TRY TO MOVE THROUGH THEM WITH OUR PRESENTATIONS. AND WE APPRECIATE YOU PUTTING THIS FIRST. TONIGHT WE'RE GOING TO OVERVIEW RECOMMENDATIONS RELATED TO THE COMMUNICATION CENTER, SPECIFICALLY WE'RE GOING TO DISCUSS THE BENEFITS OF JOINING A MULTI-JURISDICTIONAL PARTNERSHIP CALLED THE NORTHWEST REGIONAL COMMUNICATION CENTER FOR 911 ANSWERING, ANSWERING THE PUBLIC'S 911 EMERGENCY CALLS FOR PUBLIC SAFETY DISPATCHING, WHICH ENTAILESS DISPATCHING WORTHINGTON'S POLICE, FIREFIGHTERS AND PARAMEDICS TO EMERGENCY CALLS. 
          SUCH AS URSERVICE DEPARTMENT AFTER HOURS AND ANSWERING OUR NONEMERGENCY PUBLIC SAFETY LINE. 
          THE RECOMMENDATIONS THAT WILL BE MADE TONIGHT RELATE ONLY TO THESE CALL TAKING DISPATCHING AND PHONE ANSWERING SERVICES. 
          AS WE DISCUSS THIS IN THE PUBLIC IT'S IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER WITH THE RECOMMENDATION YOU WILL HEAR THIS EVENING IT WILL STILL BE THE WORTHINGTON POLICE, FIRE AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL IRST RESPONDERS COMING TO YOUR DOOR IN RESPONSE TO YOUR CALLS. 
          THAT DOES NOT CHANGE. MEMBERS OF COUNCIL, WORTHINGTON WITH SMALL COMMUNICATION CENTERS IS CHALLENGED O MEET DEMANDS. 
          THE PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATION CENTER HERE ACROSS THE STATE AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY FACE THE NEED TO CONTINUOUSLY INVEST IN TECHNOLOGY, TO PROVIDE ONGOING TRAINING FOR EMPLOYEES AND REACT TO EVOLVING REQUIREMENTS FROM REGULATORY AGENCIES. 
          IT'S CHALLENGING JOB. LAST FALL IN RESPONSE TO WHAT IS LARGER THAN NORMAL VACANCIES AT THE WORTHINGTON COMMUNICATION CENTER AND A NEED TO MAKE INVESTMENTS IN TECHNOLOGY AND ALSO A RECOGNITION OF THE REALITY THAT WE ARE A PUBLIC SAFETY SECONDARY PUBLIC SAFETY ANSWERING POINT, WHAT THAT MEANS WE CANNOT AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE 911 CELLULAR CALLS DIRECTLY. WHETHER IT MADE SENSE TO CONTINUE TO INVEST IN ND PHYSICALLY OPERATE OUR CENTER OR JOIN THE NORTHWEST CENTER OPERATED BY HE CITY OF DUBLIN. 
          I ASKED THEM TO FULLY EXAMINE AND SEE WHETHER WE COULD IMPROVE OUR SERVICES THROUGH PARTNERSHIP WITH OTHER AGENCIES. 
          THE ANALYSIS TEAM WAS ABLILY BY OUR ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER, INCLUDED OUR FIRE CHIEF, JOHN BAILOT, OUR POLICE CHIEF JERRY STRAIT, AND PERSONNEL DIRECTOR, AS WELL AS THE ASSISTANT FIRE 
          [00:05:03]
CHIEF MARK ZAMBEATO. I'M GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO THAT TEAM TO OVERVIEW THE RECOMMENDATION  IN MORE 
          DETAIL. >> WE'RE GOING TO MOVE DOWN TO THE PRESENTATION SO WE'LL TAKE A MINUTE TO DO THAT. 
          MR. GREESON MENTIONED WE HAVE A TEAM OF US THAT HAVE BEEN EVALUATES THIS ISSUE. I WILL NOTE WE HAVE CONDUCTED AN EXTENSIVE ANALYSIS, SOMETHING WE HAVE BEEN THOUGHTFUL ABOUT AND WANTED TO GO INTO DETAIL WHAT WOULD BE BEST FOR WORTHINGTON IN THE LONG TERM. OUR TEAM HAS BEEN EVALUATING THIS. BUT REALLY THE EVALUATION GOES BACK TO 2012 WHEN WORTHINGTON FIRST STARTED CONSIDERING THIS ISSUE. WE JOINED WITH THE CITIES OF DUBLIN, HILLYARD, ARLINGTON. WE HIRED KIMBLE, WHO IS AN EXPERT TO EVALUATE WHETHER IT'S FEASIBLE FOR A MULTI-JURISDICTIONAL COLLABORATION, A CENTER AMONG THOSE JURISDICTIONS TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE. 
          AT THAT TIME, THE REPORT INDICATED THAT IT WAS FEASIBLE AND ACTUALLY THEY RECOMMENDED SUCH A CONSOLIDATION AS A WAY TO SHARE RESOURCES AND TO FACILITATE QUALITY SERVICES IN THIS AREA. SUBSEQUENT TO THE KIMBLE REPORT, WE AS THE CITY OF WORTHINGTON ACTUALLY CONDUCTED SOME ADDITIONAL ANALYSIS AS A FOLLOW-UP TO THAT REPORT. 
          BUT WE DID NOT COMPLETE IT AT THAT TIME. 
          LAST FALL WE PICKED UP THAT EVALUATION AGAIN AND PURSUED IT FURTHER SO WE COULD COME TO CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS AROUND THIS SERVICE. AS MR. GREESON MENTIONED OUR ANALYSIS CONCLUDED WE CAN YOU KNOW THE NORTHWEST COMMUNICATION CENTER FOR 911 CALL AND DISPATCHING SERVICES. 
          A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHO THE NORTHWEST CENTER IS. 
          THE NORTHWEST CENTER SERVES SUBURBAN COMMUNITIES SIMILAR TO WORTHINGTON THAT PROVIDE A HIGH-LEVEL OF SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY. AND THEY PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR THE COMMUNITIES NOTED HERE THAT WE'RE ALSO PART OF THAT KIMBLE ANALYSIS, DUBLIN, HILLYARD AND NORWICH AND WASHINGTON TOWNSHIPS. IT'S A COLLABORATION OF SHARING OF RESOURCES AND SUPREME COURT FOR THIS CENTER IN THIS CRITICAL SERVICE AREA AND THAT SHARING OF RESOURCES ALLOWS IT TO BE FULLY RESOURCED AND BENEFITS FOR THIS SERVICE. 
          THEY ARE VERY PROFESSIONAL CENTER. 
          THEY ARE HIGHLY ACCREDITED, CERTIFIED AND RECOGNIZED BY THE PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS IN THIS FIELD. 
          INITIAL INFORMATION CAN BE PROVIDED BY THEIR DIRECTOR WHO IS HERE THIS EVENING AND WILL BE SPEAKING LATER IN THIS PRESENTATION. BETWEEN THEP HIGHLIGHT WHAT THIS PRESENTATION, THE BENEFITS OF JOINING THE NORTHWEST CENTER. 
          WE HAVE CONDUCTED EXTENSIVE ANALYSIS AND HAVE A REPORT THAT DOCUMENTS THAT ANALYSIS AND MAKES THE RECOMMENDATION. 
          THAT ILL BE AVAILABLE ON THE CITY'S WEBSITE FOR THE PUBLIC OR ANYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO REVIEW IT. 
          IT LISTS QUITE A FEW DIFFERENT BENEFITS. 
          WE'RE GOING TO HIGHLIGHT HAT WE THINK ARE THE MOST IMPACTFUL. 
          OVERALL WE THINK THAT THE SUMMARY OF THOSE BENEFITS IS BY JOINING THE NORTHWEST CENTER WE CAN ENHANCE THE CAPABILITY AND LEVEL OF SERVICES IN THIS AREA IN THE COMMUNITY. 
          I'M GOING TO ASK CHIEF STRAIT AND BAILOT TO DISCUSS MORE SPECIFICALLY WHAT THOSE BENEFITS ARE. 
          >> MEMBERS OF COUNCIL. WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE BENEFITS FOR THE NORTHWEST CENTER, ONE OF THE BENEFITS IS FEWER 911 CALL TRANSFERS. THE NORTHWEST CENTER IS ONE OF NINE PRIMARY PEACE APPS, LOTS OF ACRONYMS, WHICH MEANS THEY RECEIVE THE MAJORITY OF ALL CELLULAR CALLS. 
          AND THEN THEY TRANSFER THOSE TO SECONDARY PEACE APP, THE ITY OF WORTHINGTON. WHEN THEY TRANSFER THE CALLS, FIRST THEY ANSWER THEM. AND THEY ANSWER NORTHWEST, WHERE IS YOUR EMERGENCY, THEY TAKE THE INFORMATION AND TRANSFER THE CALL. THAT TRANSFER THEN IS ANSWERED 
          [00:10:01]
BY OUR COMMUNICATIONS TECHNICIANS. 
          THEY GO THROUGH THE SAME QUESTIONS AGAIN. 
          AND IT ADDS 45 OR 60 SECONDS TO THAT CALL. 
          THAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN SUFFERING A HEART ATTACK OR SOMEBODY IS BREAKING IN. IT'S IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE DOING IT TIMELY AND NO TRANSFER. 
          THAT'S THE BENEFIT OF COMING FROM  PRIMARY PEACE APP, SUCH AT NORTHWEST. ANYTIME THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE, YOU WANT THE QUICK RESPONSE FROM THE EMS OR POLICE. CHIEF? 
          >> ALL OF THE -- COUNCILMEMBERS THANK YOU. 
          ALL OF THE DISPATCHERS AT NORTHWEST ARE CROSS TRAINED TO WORK IN ANY POSITION IN THE CENTER. 
          SO IN ADDITION TO THE FIVE DISPATCHERS THEY WILL HAVE ON DUTY AT ALL TIMES IN THE CENTER THEY WILL HAVE A CALL TAKER THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE TIME. THIS ALLOWS A CALLER TO STAY ON THE PHONE WITH THE CALL TAKER OR DISPATCHER AND ALLOWS HEM TO SHARE NFORMATION AND THE DISPATCHER HELP THEM THROUGHOUT THEIR EMERGENCY. WHETHER THEY ARE REPORTING A CRIME IN PROGRESS OR ABOUT A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, ONE OF THE SPECIALIST WILL BE ON THE PHONE GIVING GUIDANCE WHILE THE OTHER DISPARCHER SIMULTANEOUSLY SEND THEM TO HELP. 
          I GOT TO SEE SOME OF THIS IN ACTION. 
          THE CALL TAKER WAS ON THE PHONE WITH SOMEBODY ON THE OTHER END, THEY WERE CHASED BY SOMEBODY WITH A SHOVEL. 
          THAT CALL TAKER WAS ON THE PHONE GIVING THEM GUIDANCE AND COMFORT WHILE THE APPROPRIATE -- I DON'T KNOW WHICH ONE, WAS DISPATCHING THE EQUIPMENT AND ALL THAT INFORMATION WAS BEING RELAYED ONTO THOSE OFFICERS GOING IN. ONE OF THE MANY ADVANTAGES THIS MODEL BRINGS, THE ACCEPTED PROTOCOL E.M.D. 
          IT IS A BEST PRACTICE AND QUICKLY BECOME THE STANDARD OF CARE FOR PREHOSPITAL CARE. EMERGENCY MEDICAL DISPATCHING PROVIDES DISPATCH, LIFE SUPPORT INSTRUCTIONS. 
          PRIOR TO THE ARRIVAL OF RESPONDERS, PRIOR TO THE ARRIVAL OF RESPONDERS, A PROTOCOL-BASED SYSTEM, CRITICAL LIVE SAVINGS INTERVENTIONS BEING PERFORMED BY CALLERS AND BY STANDERS WITH THE HELP OF ROPERLY TRAINED E.M.D. DISPATCHERS, ALL THE TIME, SUCH THINGS AS C.P.R. INSTRUCTION, RESCUE BREATHING, AIR WAY MANEUVERS, INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO CONTROL BLEEDING AND MANY MORE ITEMS ARE SHARED WITH THE PEOPLE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FORM BEFORE RESPONDERS GET THERE. 
          A CALLER WOULD CALL TO 911, REPORTING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, IT COULD BE A POSSIBLE HEART ATTACK. 
          THEY GO THROUGH A STANDARD PROTOCOL. 
          IS THE PERSON AWAKE? IF THEY DON'T KNOW, THEY ARE INSTRUCT THEM HOW TO SEE. ARE THEY BREATHING? IF NOT, THEY WILL GIVE THEM INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO BREATHE. 
          ALL THE WHILE WHILE THAT CALL TAKER IS ON THE PHONE, THE COMPUTER SYSTEM HAS SENT THAT CALL INFORMATION TO THE FIRE DISPATCHER FOR WORTHINGTON TO GET OUR ROUTE TO THAT ALL WHILE THE CALL TAKER IS GIVING THAT LIFE-SAVING INFORMATION AND HELP. IF IT HAPPENS TO BE A CALL WHEN WE GET A POLICE OFFICERS ON, IT GOES AUTOMATICALLY TO THE POLICE SIDE AND GETS THAT DISPATCHING GETS THE POLICE GOING. 
          IT IS AGAIN, TODAY'S, THE MODEL FOR PREHOSPITAL CARE. 
          WHAT IS ALSO SO IMPORTANT ABOUT THIS JUST THIS LITTLE PIECE IS THAT OUR RESPONDING PARAMEDICS WILL SEE ON THEIR COMPUTERS IN THEIR VEHICLES, THE INFORMATION THE DISPATCHER IS TALKING WITH THE CALLER. OUR PARAMEDICS WILL HAVE THAT INFORMATION BEFORE THEY GET TO THE SCENE AND HAVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS PATIENT. 
          >> ANOTHER BENEFIT IS MORE RESPONSIVE TO FUTURE ADVANCES IN TECHNOLOGY AND OPERATIONS. ALL COMMUNICATION CENTERS RIGHT NOW ARE NCREASINGLY DRIVEN BY ADVANCES IN TECHNOLOGY, AND 
          [00:15:02]
WE'RE IN THE SAME BOAT. THIS YEAR, TEXT TO 911 WAS ROLLED OUT. AND THERE IS NEW RULES, THE CHIEF WAS SPEAKING ABOUT EMERGENCY MEDICAL DISPATCHING. 
          THERE ARE NEW RULES. RIGHT NOW UR FULL-TIME COMMUNICATION TECHNICIANS ARE CERTIFIED. 
          EFFECTIVE IN 2021 EVERY DISPATCHING MUST BE CERTIFIED IN E.M.D., WHICH MEANS ALL OF OUR PART TIMERS. 
          THAT COMES DON TO TRAINER. WE DON'T SO A E.M.D. TRAINER. 
          WE HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE RIGHT VENUE AND PROVIDER COMES OUT TO SCHEDULE OUR PEOPLE. IT'S $400 EACH TIME. 
          THAT WILL BE DIFFERENT FOR PART TIMERS THAT HAVE FULL-TIME OTHER JOBS TO GET THEM INTO THE TRAINING. 
          SO IT IS DIFFICULT TO FIND A CLASS FOR OUR FULL-TIME PEOPLE. 
          THE OTHER THING THAT NORTHWEST PROVIDES THAT WE DON'T HAVE IS WE HAVE COMPUTER-AIDED DISPATCHING. 
          THE CALL TAKER IS TYPING INTO THE CAD AND SENDING THAT INFORMATION SEAMLESSLY OUT TO POLICE AND FIRE RESPONDERS. 
          THAT INFORMATION IS GREAT. BUT WHERE NORTHWEST COMES IN THEY HAVE G.I.S. OR GRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM MANAGER SO THEY CAN DO SPECIALIZED OVERLAYS ONTO MAPPING AND PROVIDE LOCATIONS FOR HYDRANTS, LOCATIONS FOR ELECTRICAL GAS LINES, THEY CAN PROVIDE OVERLAYS FOR UNMARKED AREAS. 
          I LIKE TO USE THE EXAMPLE OF THE BIKE TRAIL. 
          LET'S SAY SOMEBODY FROM CLEVELAND IS DRIVING DOWN THE BIKE TRAIL AND COME UPON A CHILD WHO IS BLEEDING. 
          THEY CALL 911. SAY I'M ON THE OLENTANGY BIKE TRAIL AND OUR DISPATCHER SAYS WHAT IS YOUR LOCATION? WELL, I'M SORRY NOT SURE. I'M FROM CLEVELAND. 
          WITH THIS ONION OVERLAY THEY CAN GRID OUT THOSE PARTICULAR AREAS SO THEY CAN PUT SOMETHING LIKE AN A7. 
          THEY CAN USE THE GOOGLE MAPS AND SEE WHAT IS GOING ON AND TELL FIRST RESPONDERS EASIEST ACCESS POINT SO THEY CAN SEND SOMEBODY DIRECTLY. WE DON'T HAVE THE CAPABILITY. 
          NEW ADDRESSES AND CHANGES TO ZONING, ALL OF THAT CAN BE PUT INPUT INTO THE CAD EASILY. THAT MAKES IT BETTER AND MORE ACCURATE FOR FIRST RESPONDERS. NORTHWEST ALSO HAS A SUPERVISOR ON EVERY SHIFT. OUR SUPERVISOR WHEN FULLY STAFFED, NINE, AND FOUR PART-TIME CONTEXT. 
          WE'RE UP TO SEVEN FULL-TIME TRAINED PART TIMERS. 
          AT NORTHWEST THE SUPERVISOR IS ON EVERY SHIFT. 
          WHEN THEY HAVE A LOW FREQUENCY, HIGH-RISK EVENT SUCH AS ACTIVE SHOOTER OR STRUCTURE FIRE, THEY CAN JUMP IN AND HELP THE DISPATCHER RESPONDING TO THAT EVENT. 
          SAME FOR THAT SUPERVISOR CAN PULL THEIR COM TEXT AND RUN QUALITY INSURANCE. THEY DO 10%, REVIEW THOSE CALLS TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE DOING BEST PRACTICE PER POLICY. 
          THEY PROVIDE AMPLE TRAINING IF THEY ARE OUTSIDE OF POLICY OR NEED ADVANCED TRAINING. THEY HAVE THE SAME OR THE BENEFIT OF HAVING INDIVIDUALS GO THROUGH SCENARIO-BASED TRAINING. SO THEY PULL THEM OUT AND RUN THEM THROUGH THE STRUCTURE FIRE OR ACTIVE AGGRESSOR TRAINING AND LET THEM MAKE MISTAKES OUTSIDE OF THE TRAGIC INCIDENT THAT MIGHT TAKE PLACE IN REALTIME. IT'S AN ADDED BENEFIT. 
          >> LARGE-CAPACITY INCIDENTS. NOT THAT WE DON'T HAVE THEM. 
          WHAT WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR US, UP TO EIGHT DISPATCHERS DEPENDING ON THE TIME OF DAY AND THE MODEL I WILL HEAR ABOUT SOON. THE SUPERVISOR ON DUTY AT ALL TIMES, IT GIVES THE FLEXIBILITY TO MOVE PEOPLE AROUND. 
          IF WORTHINGTON HAPPENS TO HAVE A BIG POLICE AND FIRE ISSUE AT THE SAME TIME AND REALLY LABOR INTENSIVE AND TIME INTENSIVE 
          [00:20:04]
THEY CAN MOVE ANOTHER DISPATCHER TO COVER THE AREA. 
          THEY CAN HE FLEXIBILITY TO DO SO. 
          ANOTHER THING THEY HAVE IS THAT I FOUND REALLY, REALLY INTERESTING IS A MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS TRAILER. 
          IF WE PROBABLY ALL HAVE PICTURES OF THE OVER TURNED TANKER TRUCK ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO OVER ON THE OVERPASS. 
          IT HAPPENED TO BE ROLLING DOWN THE ROAD SO A FIRE ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE HIGHWAY. NORTHWEST HAS A COMMUNICATIONS TRAILER, TIED WITH THE INCIDENT COMMANDER. 
          THEY FREED UP THE DISPATCHERS IN THE COM CENTER TO HANDLE THE 911 CALLS THAT WERE COMING IN. AND THEY HAVE THE ABILITY TO STAFF UP FOR LARGE EVENTS, BIG STORMS OR MULTIPLE JULY 4TH ACTIVITIES. THEY HAVE THAT ROBUST ABILITY TO 
          HANDLE THESE EVENTS. >> NEXT WE WOULD LIKE TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE MORE INSIGHT INTO THE NORTHWEST REGIONAL COMMUNICATIONS CENTER. THAT IS QUITE A MOUTHFUL. 
          YOU HEARD NORTHWEST CENTER, SOMETIMES PEOPLE REFER IT TO AS N REC. WE HAVE THE DIRECTOR FOR THE NORTHWEST CENTER, JAY SOMERVILLE HERE WITH US. 
          HE'S GOING TO GIVE A HIGHLIGHT HOW THEY ARE OPERATED AND 
          GOVERNED. >> GOOD EVENING, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR HAVING ME. LET ME SAY WHAT IS PLEASURE WORKING WITH MATT AND HIS TEAM. IT IS NOT AS THOUGH THIS IS NEW. WE HAVE HAD A LONG-TIME PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY OF WORTHINGTON AND CONTINUE TO HAVE A GREAT RELATIONSHIP AND SHARE RESOURCES AND WORK ON BEST PRACTICES. THE FIT BETWEEN THE CITY OF WORTHINGTON AND THE CITY OF DUBLIN AS WITH ALL OF OUR PARTNERS AT THE NORTHWEST CENTER, SEEMS TO BE A REALLY GOOD TIE TOGETHER OF A GROUP OF COMMUNITIES THAT ENSURE HIGH LEVELS OF SERVICE AND SAFETY TO THEIR INDIVIDUAL COMMUNITIES. 
          AND THAT WAS ALWAYS IMPORTANT TO US AS WE WERE CALLED UPON A LITTLE OVER SIX YEARS AGO TO SERVE AS THE CENTRAL POINT FOR CONSOLIDATION. IT WAS OUR NUMBER-ONE PRIORITY TO ENSURE THAT EVERY COMMUNITY THAT JOINS OR COLLABORATION DOESN'T LOSE SERVICE THROUGH JOINING THAT COLLABORATION. 
          AND DOESN'T LOSE SERVICE SHOULD WE ADD ADDITIONAL ENTITIES TO THIS COLLABORATION. I'M VERY BLESSED WITH MY CITY COUNCIL AND MY CITY ADMINISTRATION. 
          THEY UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF TRAINING, STRAFFING AND ENSURING -- STAFFING -- THAT WE FILL THAT TOOL BOX FULL OF THE TOOLS THEY NEED TO DO THE RIGHT THING. 
          THAT IS WHAT THIS COLLABORATION IS ALL ABOUT. 
          I LIKE TO START OFF ANY DISCUSSION TARTING WITH OUR MISSION STATEMENT. TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF SERVICE AND WORK IN PARTNERSHIP TO ENSURE PUBLIC SAFETY. 
          WE REMAIN DEDICATED TO SERVICE AND COMMITTED TO EXCELLENCE FOCUSING ON VALUES OF PROFESSIONALISM, INTEGRITY, RESPECT AND COMMITMENT. THIS ISN'T A PLAQUE ON THE WALL TO US. OUR ELECOMMUNICATIONERS LIVE LIVE US TO THIS MISSION. I HAVE A GREAT BUNCH OF PEOPLE AND THEY PER SON FITHE VALUES. WHAT IS IT NORTHWEST CENTER. 
          IT STARTED AS A TELECOMMUNICATOR, THE LOAN COMMUNICATION SUPERVISOR FROM 1994 UNTIL '99. 
          WE OPERATED A PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS CENTER THAT SERVED DUBLIN FOR POLICE AND WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP FIRE SERVICE. AFTER A GRANT THAT WE SECURED AS A GROUP OF COMMUNITIES TO EVALUATE WHETHER DISPATCH WAS THE RIGHT THING TO DO. THE FOCUS TURNED TO US, AND WE WERE ASKED IF WE WOULD BE INTERESTED IN BEING THE FOCAL POINT FOR A CONSOLIDATING CENTER. 
          WE DID NOT JUMP AT THE CHANCE IMMEDIATELY. 
          IT WAS A BIG DECISION AND WE KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE SIZABLE. IT TOOK A YEAR TO MAKE THE DECISION OURSELVES AND DECIDED TO ENTER INTO OUR FIRST PARTNERSHIP WITH HILLYARD AND NORWICH TOWNSHIP. 
          [00:25:03]
WE STARTED THAT RELATIONSHIP IN 2013 AND THEN WE ADDED TO THAT RELATIONSHIP JUST LAST YEAR WHEN WE PROVIDED SERVICE FOR UPPER ARLINGTON. OUR CURRENT STAFFING, ONE BUREAU DIRECTOR, WHICH IS MY POSITION. I HAVE ONE OPERATIONS MANAGER, FOUR COMMUNICATIONS SUPERVISOR, ONE A TRAINING AND QUALITY ASSURANCE SUPERVISOR. 25 TECHNICIANS, FULL-TIME, CROSS TRAINS AND CERTIFIED. WE HAVE ONE DEDICATED COMMUNICATIONS TECHNICIAN WHOSE JOB IS TO MAINTAIN AND STAY ON THE CUTTING EDGE OF TECHNOLOGY BY MAINTAINING THE DATA IN THE COMPUTER AIDED DISPATCH CENTER. THE NORTHWEST CENTER IS A CONTRACT FOR SERVICE CENTER. THE CITY OF WORTHINGTON WOULD ENTER A CONTRACT WITH  CITY OF DUBLIN. 
          WHAT MAKES OR CENTER UNIQUE AND WE HAVE BEEN TOLD BY FRIENDS IN THE CONSULTING BUSINESS WE'RE AN EXAMPLE OF HOW MANY CENTERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE APPROACHING THE AGREEMENTS FOR SERVICE. EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A CONTRACT FOR SERVICE, WE WORTHINGTON AS A CONSOLIDATED CENTER. 
          THE CHIEF IS MADE UP OF EVERY AGENCY, EVERY POLICE AND FIRE CHIEF. THEY ADVISE ON STRUCTURE AND STRUCTURE HANGES, FIRST-HAND INVOLVEMENT, BOTH CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT AND OPERATING BUDGET. 
          THEY ASSIST AND GIVE DIRECTION ON LONG-RANGE PLANNING FOR THE CENTER, NOT ONLY TECHNOLOGY BUT OPERATIONALLY. 
          AND OUR DAY-TO-DAY MANAGEMENT ISSUES. 
          I STARTED MY CAREER AT DUBLIN WORKING FOR A CHIEF, I NOW HAVE SIX CHIEFS AND I'M LOOKING TO GET EIGHT. 
          THE MORE THE BETTER, THE BETTER OPERATION WE HAVE. 
          BELOW THAT EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE WE HAVE TWO POLICY COMMITTEES, ONE DEDICATED TO FIRE AND EMS AND ONE DEDICATED TO LAW ENFORCEMENT. ALL ARE VETTED THROUGH POLICY COMMITMENTS. THIS IS A SEAMLESS MIX BETWEEN RESPONDERS AND TELECOMMUNICATIONERS THAT ARRANGE FOR THE DISPATCH. WE CANNOT HAVE SEPARATED POLICY AND PROCEDURE SO WE COME TOGETHER UNDER THE GUY GUYS TO MAKE SURE HOW THINGS ARE GOING TO FUNCTION DAY-TO-DAY. 
          HOW FIRE ASSIGNMENTS AND DOCUMENTATION WILL BE DONE IN THE COMPUTER-AIDED DISPATCH. HOW WE CONFIGURE CHANNELS AND TALK GROUPS FOR CRITICAL INCIDENTS. 
          ONE OF THE THINGS WE CAME TOGETHER AS A GROUP IS WE IMPLEMENTED A POLICY TRAINING DRILL FOR ACTIVE VIOLENCE WHERE WE COME TOGETHER AND SIMULATE A SCHOOL SHOOTING. 
          WE ALSO USE DATA FROM EVENTS IN THE PAST. 
          SOME OF THE YOU MAY RECALL THE ACTIVE SHOOTE INCIDENT CITY OF DUBLIN HAD LAST HOLIDAY SEASON IN 2018. 
          WE TOOK WHAT WE LEARNED FROM THAT, REFINED OUR POLICY THROUGH OUR FIRE, EMS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT AND CAME OUT WITH AN EVEN STRONGER POLICY AND A DRILL TO TEST THAT POLICY AND PROCEDURE CHANGE THAT WE MADE. WHO MAKES UP OUR POLICY COMMITTEE? EACH OF THE AGENCIES DESIGNATE A COMMAND OFFICER TO BE THE LIAISON BETWEEN N RACK AND THE LOCAL AGENCY. NOT ONLY DO WE WANT HE INPUT AND SEEK THE DIRECTION OF THE AGENCIES THAT WE SERVE, THAT IS THE CONDUIT IF THERE ARE ANY COMPLAINTS OR CONCERNS AND COMMENDATIONS FOR OUR STAFF OR FOR THE RESPONDER STAFF. 
          IT'S ALSO A WAY FOR US TO SHARE INFORMATION WHEN WE DO OUR QUA QUALITY ASSURANCE. CHIEF STRAIT SAID WE DO THEM. 
          WE DOPWARDS OF 10% OF OUR EMERGENCY CALLS AND WE DO A QUALITY ASSURANCE REVIEW ON EVERY CRITICAL INCIDENT THAT IS HIGH-IMPACT, LOW-FREQUENCY. IT'S NOT ONLY IMPORTANT FOR US TO REVIEW HOW WE PERFORM, IT IS CRITICAL WE FEEDBACK TO OUR EMPLOYEES, OUR TELECOMMUNICATORS AND SUPERVISORS HOW WELL THEY DID AND HOW WELL THEY CAN DO BETTER ON THE NEXT INCIDENT. 
          [00:30:04]
SOME HIGHLIGHTS FROM THINGS OUR CENTER HAS ACCOMPLISHED AND I TALKING ABOUT OUR COMMUNICATION CENTER, I'M TALKING ABOUT OUR PEOPLE. IT ISN'T ME. 
          YOU ARE GOING TO GET TO SEE MY THROUGHOUT THIS PROCESS. 
          MY HOPE IS YOU GET TO MEET SOME OF OUR PEOPLE THAT WILL BE SERVING YOUR COMMUNITY WHEN WE MOVE FORWARD. 
          IT'S OUR TEAM THAT UT TOGETHER AND FOUND SUCCESSES OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS SINCE WE BECAME A CONSOLIDATED CENTER. 
          THE ASSOCIATION OF PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATION, MANY OF YOU MAYBE FAMILIAR WITH THE ACCREDITATION FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT, THIS IS SPECIFICALLY FOR COMMUNICATIONS CENTER. 
          AND WE WERE THE FIRST IN CENTRAL OHIO AND THE SEVENTH IN THE STATE OF OHIO OUT OF THE MORE THAN 300 COMMUNICATION CENTERS IN THE STATE TO RECEIVE ACCREDITATION. 
          WE WERE ONE OF THE FIRST AGENCIES IN CENTRAL OHIO, ALONG WITH THE CITY OF WESTERVILLE TO RECEIVE THE PROJECT 33 CERTIFICATION. A FANCY NAME FOR WE ASKED OUR PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATION TO COMMEND AND CHALLENGE NEW HIGHER TRAINING PROGRAM AND CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION PROGRAM TO MAKE SURE IT MET THE TOP STANDARDS AND WE RECEIVED THAT CERTIFICATION IN 2017. ALONG WITH THE COLLABORATION WE ENTERED INTO WE WERE ABLE O OFFER TEX TO 911 SERVICE EARLIER THAN ANTICIPATED. WE WENT LIVE IN MAY OF 2018 AND HAD WONDERFUL SUCCESSES, NOT ONLY IN SITUATIONS WHERE PEOPLE ARE UNABLE TO TALK TO A 911 OPERATOR, OFTEN TIMES DUE TO A DOMESTIC SITUATION OR POSSIBLY A PROWLER, IT'S INCREDIBLY HELPFUL, WHO USED TO HAVE TO FIND A TELETYPE DEVICE AND WONDERED WHY, CAN'T A SEND A TEXT MESSAGE TO 911. 
          SO THIS WAS ONE OF OUR TOP PRIORITIES AND WE WANTED TO ROLL THAT OUT IN MAY OF 2018. OUR STAFF MEMBERS IS AN EMERGENCY TELECOMMUNICATOR. WE DO OUR TRAINING IN HOUSE, WE HAVE THREE CERTIFICATED E.M.D. INSTRUCTORS THAT TRAIN IN THEIR INITIAL PERIOD AND ONGOING CONTINUAL PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION. EMERGENCY DISPATCHING HELPS US PRIORITIZE TO MAKE SURE THE RIGHT RESPONDER IS SENT THE FIRST TIME AND PROVIDE PREARRIVAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR EVERY MEDICAL CALL. A TIDBIT OUT OF THE 32 STAFF MEMBERS 17 OF THOSE CAME TO US WITH DISPATCHING EXPERIENCE FROM A PREVIOUS COMMUNICATION CENTER. 
          WE RECRUIT HEAVILY. WE'RE PROUD OF THE STAFF WE HAVE. AND OUR TURNOVER IS LOWER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE BY FAR ON HOW MANY TELECOMMUNICATORS WE TURNOVER. SINCE DUBLIN HAD A COMMUNICATION CENTER SINCE 1989 WE RETIRED THREE EMPLOYEES LAST YEAR. 
          ALTHOUGH WE'RE PROUD THEY MADE IT TO RETIREMENT I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE HELD ONTO THEM FOR A FEW MORE YEARS BECAUSE THAT LEFT A LOT OF EXPERIENCE WALKING OUT OUR DOOR. 
          OHIO CORES, WE SHARED THIS RADIO SYSTEM, WHICH WAS THE RESULT OF A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT BETWEEN DELAWARE AND DUBLIN. 
          TO BUILD THE PUBLIC SAFETY THAT SERVES ALL OF OUR RESPONDERS TODAY. THAT COUNCIL F GOVERNMENTS ARRANGEMENT WAS EXPANDED AS WE ADDED MILLIARD AND UPPER ARLINGTON, THEY JOINED THE CORES PARTNERSHIP AND WE'RE SHARING IN THE OWNERSHIP AND MAINTAIN OF OUR SYSTEM. 
          ALL OF OUR NORTHWEST PARTNERS ARE COLLABORATIVE PARTNERS AND OUR COMPUTER SOFTWARE OFFERINGS FROM DISPATCH TO THE MOBILE DATA SOFTWARE MENTIONED EARLIER. SEAMLESS DATA SHARING SHOULD BE AND IS ONE OF THE MOST CRITICAL COMPONENTS TO DISPATCH CONSULTATION. INFORMATION HANDLING AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE ACROSS THE JURISDICTION, BEING ABLE TO PUT 
          [00:35:01]
OUT CRITICAL INFORMATION IN ONE BROADCAST IS A TRADEMARK OF DISPATCH CONSULTATION. AS IF WE DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH COLLABORATION GOING ON RIGHT NOW, HE AGENCIES OF THE N RECALONG WITH A NEW OTHER AGENCIES IN CENTRAL OHIO, FOUND THEMSELVES IN NEED OF A NEW RECORD MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS, INSTEAD OF EVERYONE SPENDING MONEY ON SOFTWARE AND MAKING SILOS O OUT OF THE INFORMATION STREAMS WE FORMED AN R.M.S. INVESTIGATION GROUP AND LOOKING FORWARD TO ONE LAW ENFORCEMENT RECORDS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR THE ENTIRE AREA. PARTNERSHIPS FOR US ARE -- THE LAST SLIDE I WANT TO LEAVE EVERYONE WITH IS A PICTURE OF MY PEOPLE. I COULDN'T BE MORE PROUD OF THE PEOPLE THAT WORK IN OUR CENTER AND THE CENTERS ACROSS CENTRAL OHIO. APRIL 15TH IS NATIONAL TELECOMMUNICATESSER WEEK TO APPRECIATE THE UNITED STATES FIRST RESPONDER, WHICH IS THE TELECOMMUNICATOR THAT ANSWERS THE CALL AND PROVIDES LIFE SAVING AND IMMEDIATE RESPONSE OF POLICE AND FIRE AGENCIES EVERY DAY. 
          OUR TELECOMMUNICATORS ARE A GREAT BUNCH OF PEOPLE. 
          WE'RE NOT LOOKING TO -- EVERYTHING YOU O HERE. 
          WE'RE LOOKING TO ENHANCE IT AND PARTNER WITH IT. 
          AND WITH THAT, I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU 
          MAY HAVE. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: QUESTI? 
          MR. FOUST. >> D. FOUST: IN THE EARLY PART OF THE PRESENTATION YOU MENTIONED DUBLIN AND HILLYARD PIECE AS PART OF THIS COOPERATIVE. 
          I'M CURIOUS WHAT DO THEY DO ABOUT FIRE? 
          >> HILLYARD IS COVERED BY THE NORWICH TOWNSHIP FIRE DEPARTMENT AND DUBLIN IS WASHINGTON. IN OUR DISCUSSIONS WITH HILLYARD AND NORWICH IT WAS IMPORTANT TO THEM AND US AS A PART OF OUR DISPATCH COLLABORATION THAT POLICE AND FIRE DISPATCHED OUT OF THE SAME CENTER FOR A GIVEN COMMUNITY WHENEVER POSSIBLE. 
          THAT HELPS WITH THE COORDINATION OF THE INFORMATION SHARING. 
          >> NEXT STEPS, I THINK THAT MAY INFORM SOME OF YOUR -- RESULT IN QUESTIONS ITSELF.  AND I WOULD BE-- IF I DIDN'T INTRODUCE A COUPLE OF PEOPLE THAT CONTRIBUTED, OUR DIVISION OF POLICE AND I THINK THAT'S EVERYBODY. 
          AND ANN BROWN IS HELPING WITH DEVELOPING THE NEXT STEPS. 
          >> THE NEXT STEPS ARE A COMMUNITY CONVERSATION. 
          WE RECOGNIZE THIS IS A RECOMMENDATION AND  VERY IMPORTANT SERVICE FOR OUR COMMUNITY. 
          WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE SHARE THE RECOMMENDATION WITH OUR COMMUNITY AND HAVE THEM AMERICANESS OF OUR COMMUNITY HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO ENGAGE, ASK QUESTIONS AND UNDERSTAND THE RECOMMENDATION AND WHY WE'RE MAKING. 
          WE PLANNED A NUMBER OF STEPS OVER THE UPCOMING, WE LISTED HERE. OUTREACH, SHARING INFORMATION TO THE COMMUNITY. WE EXPECT TO POST A LOT OF -- DETAILED ANALYSIS REPORT N THE CITY'S WEBPAGE. 
          WE WILL HAVE A WEBPAGE FOR THIS ISSUE. 
          WE'LL SHARE INFORMATION THROUGH OUR SOCIAL MEDIA AND NEWSLETTER, AS WELL AS THE MAILED NEWS LITERALLY THAT WILL COME UP IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AND WE'LL TALK WITH THE MEDIA. 
          WE EXPECT NEWS COVERAGE IN THIS WEEK AND THROUGHOUT OTHER OUTLETS ALSO. HAVE SOME OPPORTUNITIES FOR MORE ENGAGEMENT AND FEEDBACK ITEMS SUCH AS WE'LL SCHEDULE PUBLIC MEETINGS, DISCUSSING SCHEDULING A TELEPHONE TOWN HALL. 
          LOOKING FOR A VARIETY OF WAYS TO GET THE INFORMATION OUT. 
          AND MAKE SURE AS MANY RESIDENTS CAN INTERACT WITH US CAN DO SO. 
          IN SUMMARY, WE HIT ON A NUMBER OF ITEMS. REALLY THE BENEFITS FOR JOINING THE NORTHWEST CENTER ARE THE ABILITY TO MORE IF TENSIVELY USE EXTENSIVELY USE TECHNOLOGY, TO -- CALLERS TO 911. HAVING HIGHLY TRAINED AND QUICKER RESPONSE TIME FOR WORTHINGTON PARAMEDICS, FIREFIGHTERS AND POLICE. IF THERE ARE ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS, WE'RE HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM. 
          >> I HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS. >> R. DOROTHY: I THINK YOU 
          [00:40:07]
MENTIONED IT BUT HOW DO WE HAVE FASTER RESPONSE TIMES? IS THAT WHEN WE'RE CALLING WITH CELLPHONES OR HOW DOES THAT 
          BECOME FASTER? >> THAT CURRENT TRANSFER THAT OCCURS BECAUSE WE'RE A SECONDARY ADMINISTERING POINT FOR 911 CALLS AND SO THOSE ARE FIRST AND BE TRANSFERRED TO US AS A SECONDARY CENTER. THAT RESULTS -- ONCE IT'S IDENTIFIED IT'S WORTHINGTON, IT'S TRANSFERRED AND QUERIED AND DISPATCHED -- ESTIMATED TO TAKE UP TO 45 TO 60 SECONDS PER 
          CALL. >> IF WE HAVE RESIDENTS WHO WANT TO CALL THE NONEMERGENCY LINE THEY ARE TRYING TO SET UP A DRIVE BY -- IF THEY ARE ON VACATION -- COORDINATED. 
          >> DURING THE DAY TIME AND GOING INTO THE EVENING AND WEEKEND HOURS. ALSO OUTSIDE OF THE HOURS THE MAIN LINE FOR THE NONEMERGENCY FOR POLICE AND FIRE WOULD BE FORWARDED TO THE NORTHWEST CENTER. 
          >> R. DOROTHY: WE HAVE HAD EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES WITH OUR OWN CENTER, WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO OUR CURRENT STAFF? 
          >> WE HAVE PINNAL TALKING WITH OUR STAFF AND COMMUNICATIONS -- BEEN -- AWARE WE'VE BEEN STUDYING THE ISSUE AND WE'RE MAKING THIS RECOMMENDATION. WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT NEXT STEPS FOR THEM. THIS TRANSITION DOES NOT OCCUR QUICKLY. ONCE WE GET THROUGH THE PUBLIC COMMUNICATE ENGAGEMENT CONVERSATION AND HAVE A FORMAL ACTION ON -- MOVING FORWARD WITH THE NORTHWEST CENTER, TO EXECUTE, MOVEMENT TO LOOK IN THE SUMMER AND FALL FOR 2020 OR FULLY COMPLETING A TRANSITION. FOR THAT YEAR AND THAT TRANSITION TIME WE NEED TO OPERATE OUR CENTER. 
          WE NEED OUR EMPLOYEES TO WORK IN THE CENTER AND FULL OPERATE. 
          THAT. THERE ARE  VARIETY OF OPTIONS. 
          WE WILL NEED ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT IN THE POLICE DIVISION. 
          SO WE WILL HAVE A COUPLE, AS INDICATED IN THE REPORT, THAT WE'LL NEED TWO ADDITIONAL PEOPLE TO HELP WITH THE ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT. THAT WILL BE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR COMMUNICATIONS TECHNICIANS. ALWAYS BRING ON STAFF TO TAKE US ON BOARD. THEY WILL HAVE  HIRING PROCESS FOCUSING ON THE POLICE. GOING THROUGH A PROCESS DEDICATED FOR THEM TO EXPLORE BEING HIRED BY THE NORTHWEST CENTER. AND THEN WE HAVE ALSO INDICATED TO OUR EMPLOYEES THAT WE ARE -- REACH OUT TO OTHER JURISDICTIONS IN THIS BUSINESS, WHICH IS COMMON. 
          THERE IS HIGH TURNOVER IN THIS FIELD. 
          WE ALSO SEE IT IN THIS REGION. OTHER CENTERS IN THE REGION ARE CONSTANTLY HIRING COMMUNICATIONS TECHNICIANS. 
          WE WILL FIND OUT WHO IS LOOKING FOR PEOPLE AND HELP TO MAKE 
          THOSE CONNECTIONS. >> B. KOWALCZYK: TO SUMMARIZE, FROM THE RESIDENT'S POINT OF VIEW MAKING A 911 CALL, FASTER RESPONSE TIMES, THE POTENTIAL FOR YOU ARE CALLING FROM, THOSE SOUND LIKE REALLY GREAT IMPROVEMENTS. MAYBE EVEN MORE EDUCATION AND THINGS LIKE THAT. THERE IS A LOT OF TECHNOLOGICAL 
          IMPROVEMENTS. >> THEY ARE SHARE MEDICAL INSTRUCTIONS, USUALLY TWO DISPATCHERS ON DUTY AT ANY GIVEN TIME. THEY MORE FREQUENTLY THEY ARE DIVIDING THEIR TIME. THAT'S ONE OF THE BENEFITS IS GIVING MORE STAFF ON DUTY AND THE TIMELINES WHERE THEY HAVE A DEDICATED CALL TAKER THAT ALLOWS FOR THEM TO STAY ON THE LINE. 
          >> B. KOWALCZYK: THE OTHER QUESTION I HAVE -- TALKING ABOUT ALL OF THE THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY, ARE THERE THINGS WE NEED IN ORDER TO MAKE HIS TRANSITION HAPPEN, INVESTMENT IN 
          [00:45:01]
          TECHNOLOGY? >> TO TRANSITION THERE ARE A FEW TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMS, INITIATIVES WE NEED TO IMPLEMENT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE MOBILE TERMINALS OR COMPUTERS IN OUR FIRE AND POLICE WILL NEED TO INSTALL SOFTWARE TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE NORTHWEST CENTER. OUR ALERTING SOME IN OUR FIRE STATION TO ALERT THE FIREFIGHTERS THEY HAVE A CALL WILL NEED TO BE UPGRADED AND ENHANCED. 
          THERE ARE A NUMBER OF THINGS LIKE THAT IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THE TRANSITION. MR. GREESON MENTIONED OUR ANALYSIS TEAM, HE INTRODUCED THE MEMBERS OF THE TEAM. 
          WE BROUGHT IN EITHER PEOPLE TO ADVISE AND EXPLORE ISSUES. 
          WE HAVE WORKED WITH OUR I.T. DIRECTOR TO EXPLORE WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN ON THE TECHNOLOGY S SIDE. 
          >> B. KOWALCZYK: ONE FINAL QUESTION. 
          AND THIS MAY [INDISCERNIBLE] WHAT IS YOUR CAPACITY FOR TAKING ON NEW MUNICIPALITIES OUR SERVICES? 
          >> WHEN WE ORIGINALLY MET WITH L ROBERT KIMBLE WHO DID THE STUDY FOR THE COMMUNITIES THAT APPLIED FOR THE GRANT BACK IN 2013 THIS WOULD PROBABLY BE OUR FINAL ADDITION AS A COMMUNITY TO OUR CENTER. WHEN WE RENOVATED THIS AND THE JUSTICE CENTER IN DUBLIN WE ALLOWED FOR 12 CONSOLE POSITION. AND BY BRINGING IN WORTH WORTHINGTON -- FOR THE CAPACITY OF THE CENTER. 
          >> I DID NOT BRING MY REPORT SO I DON'T HAVE THE SPECIFIC NUMBERS IN FRONT OF ME. YES, THEY ARE. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: A LONG-TERM SAVINGS. 
          >> YOU WILL NOTICE COST WASN'T ONE OF THE MAIN FACTORS IN THIS PRESENTATION BECAUSE WE BELIEVE IT'S ABOUT THE SERVICE THAT CAN BE PROVIDED. HOWEVER WE LOOKED AT COST BECAUSE WE THOUGHT THAT WAS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND. 
          YES, THERE ARE SHORT-TERM TRANSITION COSTS THAT RESULT IN 2020. BEING A YEAR THAT WOULD BE MORE EXPENSIVE OING WITH NORTHWEST THEN STAYING AND OPERATING OUR CENTER. THE ONGOING COSTS ARE LESS IN GOING WITH NORTHWEST. THE ONGOING SAVINGS YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT RESULT N A COST SAVINGS OVERALL. 
          IT'S ABOUT MAYBE TWO, THREE YEARS BY YEAR THREE WE'LL HAVE RECOVERED THOSE IN THE OPERATING SAVINGS THAT WE'RE PROJECTING. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE WHO WORKED ON THIS. MR.THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF HOURS AND HARD WORK. I KNOW IT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR QUITE SOME TIME TRYING TO MAKE THE DECISION AND THAT'S NOT EASY. I WANT TO THANK DUBLIN AND THE STAFF AND WHO WORKED ON THIS BECAUSE THIS WAS NOT EASY. 
          I KNOW IT'S GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF TIME AND EFFORT GOING FORWARD. I KNOW THE PUBLIC INFORMATION COMPONENT IS GOING TO BE OUT THERE. 
          AND I JUST WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY WHOOSHED ON THIS TEAM FOR -- WORKED -- FOR GETTING IT THIS FAR AND DOING A WONDERFULLY 
          PROFESSIONAL JOB. >> THANK YOU. 
          OUR TEAM HAS WORKED HARD. I REALLY APPRECIATE THE 
          SUPPORT. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: I HAVE A 
          PROCESS QUESTION. >> YES, SIR. 
          >> M. GREESON: WE'RE GOING TO LAUNCH OUR PUBLIC INFORMATION EFFORT AS MS. STEWART ARTICULATED. 
          WE WANTED TO CREATE EVERY COMMUNITY FOR MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC TO LEARN ABOUT THE TEAM'S RECOMMENDATION. 
          OUR GOAL IS TO BRING IT BACK IN LATE MAY OR EARLY JUNE FOR AN ACTION AND AUTHORIZATION TO MOVE FORWARD WITH ENTERING INTO AN AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF DUBLIN TO JOIN THE NORTHWEST 
          CENTER. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: THANK YOU, AGAIN. AND WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ONTO, 
          [4.A. Resolution No. 18-2019]
BACK TO OUR RESOLUTION THAT'S BEEN INTRODUCED. 
          AND WITH THE ELECTRIC AGGREGATION. 
          >> M. GREESON: WE'LL LET A FEW PEOPLE CLEAR OUT. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: SURE. YOU RE WELCOME TO STAY. 
          >> M. GREESON: PRESIDENT MICHAEL, MEMBERS O F COUNCIL, THANK YOU AGAIN FOR MOVING UP THAT PRESENTATION. 
          [00:50:06]
AND THE CITY OF DUBLIN, MR. SUMMERVILLE HAD AN ITEM ON THE CITY COUNCIL DUBLIN AGENDA ITEM, ENCOURAGES CITY COUNCIL TO RELEASE TO US. SO YOU MEAN GRATEFUL FOR YOU TO MOVE IT UP AND FOR HIM TO BE WITH US THIS EVENING. 
          THIS ITEM IS VERY IMPORTANT AS WELL. 
          AS YOU WELL KNOW THE VOTERS OF THE CITY OF WORTHINGTON AUTHORIZED US TO BECOME GOVERNMENT AGGREGATORS. 
          THEY APPROVED A BALLOT INITIATIVE THAT ESSENTIALLY SUPPORTED OUR ABILITY TO DO ELECTRIC AGGREGATION OR WE SUBSEQUENTLY, YOU APPROVED AN OPERATIONS PLAN. 
          IT WAS APPROVED BY THE PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION OF OHIO, WHICH CERTIFIED US AS A GOVERNMENT AGGREGATOR. 
          YOU WILL RECALL LOOKING AT REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS THAT OUR CONSULTANTS RELEASED AS A RESULT SOLICITED SIX VENDORS, PROPOSALS FOR ELECTRIC SUPPLY FOR THE CUSTOMERS THAT WILL ULTIMATELY CHOOSE TO BE PARTS OF OUR AGGREGATION PROGRAM. 
          SO I'M GOING TO REINTRODUCE RICH SURACE WITH ENERGY ALLIANCES. 
          HE'S GROWING DO WALK THROUGH THE TWO PROPOSALS THAT HAVE BEEN DEEMED MOST RESPONSIVE AND RESPONSIBLE TO OUR PROGRAM. 
          WHAT WE'RE SEEKING IS YOUR DIRECTION THIS EVENING AND ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION. THE RESOLUTION BEFORE YOU WILL REQUIRE AN AMENDMENT, ACTUALLY INSERTION OF THE, I BELIEVE, THE KILOWATT HOURS AND THE NAME OF THE SUCCESSFUL RESPONDENT. 
          >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME BACK AGAIN. 
          I THOUGHT THIS MORNING IT HAD TO BE THE FIRST INTRODUCED ANNIVERSARY, IT'S 348 DAYS SINCE I FIRST STARTED THE PROGRESS. 
          THE AGGREGATION TAKES QUITE A BIT OF TIME. 
          I THOUGHT WE WERE COMING UP JUST ABOUT THE YEAR ANNIVERSARY. 
          WE WENT THROUGH HE PROCESS OF RUNNING AN R.F.P. AND GOING OUT TO SEVERAL TRUSTED SUPPLIERS, WHO WE THOUGHT COULD BRING THE BENEFIT OF SEVERAL ITEMS. THIS WAS UNIQUE IN THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF LAYERS IN WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO WITH THE PROGRAM, WE'RE LOOKING TO ADD RENEWABLES AND THE UTILITIES FOR THE SUPPLIER SUCH AS BUDGET BUILDING. 
          THERE WERE A LOT OF PIECES IN FINDING SUPPLIERS TO BE ABLE TO MEET MOST, IF NOT ALL, OF THE REQUIREMENTS WAS TRICKY TO BALANCE OUT. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WE HAVE BROUGHT MULTIPLE OFFERS TO CHOOSE FROM. 
          MOST TIMES IT'S A CASE WE'RE ABLE TO FIND THE CRITERIA FROM A SINGLE SUPPLIER AND COME TO SOMETHING HERE AND SAY THIS IS OUR SUGGESTION. AFTER SPEAKING WITH MR. GREESON AND BECAUSE OF THE COMPLEXITY OF THE LAYERS, WE FELT WE DID LOOK TO YOU FOR GUIDANCE ON THE CHOICES AND WHICH MAYBE BEST FOR THE RESIDENTS AND SMALL BUSINESSES OF THE CITY OF WORTHINGTON. BEFORE WE GO THROUGH SOME OF THE OTHER SLIDES, I DO WANT TO DO A LITTLE BIT OF HOUSEKEEPING. 
          I WANT TO SEPARATE THE UTILITY FROM A.P. ENERGY, WHICH S PART OF THIS DECK. IF I SAY A.E.P., THAT TAKES CARE OF THE DISTRIBUTION AND TRANSMISSION. 
          IF AND SAY A.E.P. ENERGY THAT IS THE RETAIL ARM. 
          TWO SEPARATE ENTITIES WITH NO TIES. 
          A.P. OHIO IS UTILITY. A.P. ENERGY IS THE RETAIL SUPPLIER THAT HAS RESPONDED TO OUR BID. 
          >> M. GREESON: I BELIEVE WE DON'T HAVE YOUR POWERPOINT UP. 
          SO YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO GO WITHOUT IT FOR A LITTLE BIT. 
          >> FOR THE SLIDES WE HAVE PUT TOGETHER, THE FIRST ONE WAS THE ESSENTIAL QUALITIES, I BELIEVE YOU HAD SEEN THAT AS PART OF YOUR PACKAGE. THAT LISTS THE THINGS WE'RE LOOKING FOR IN SUPPLIER, COMPETITIVE PRICING, BEING ABLE 
          [00:55:07]
TO COMPARE, BEING ABLE TO OFFER RENEWABLES, ADMINISTRATOR BUDGET BILLING, HANDLE ANY POTENTIAL CREDITS FOR THOSE WHO USE NETMETERING IN THE CITY. NO FEES TO EITHER ENTER OR LEAVE THE PROGRAMS. BE ABLE TO MANAGE THE PROGRAM UP TO ENERGY ALLIANCE'S STANDARDS AS WELL AS THE CITY'S STANDARDS. AND THE BEAUTIFUL SLIDE OU DON'T SEE, STARTED TO GET INTO THE BUDGET BILLING AND NETMETERING. SO THAT'S AN ADDITIONAL SLIDE THAT IS NOT IN HERE. HOPEFULLY WE CAN GET THAT TO WORK. AND WHAT I WANT TO DO IS TOUCH A LITTLE MORE ON BUDGET BILLING AND NETMETERING BECAUSE WE HAVE SAID THEM A LOT AND MADE THEM IMPORTANT IN OUR REQUIREMENTS. 
          I WANTED TO SPEAK MORE ABOUT THEM. 
          BUDGET BILLING AS IT IS FOR SOMEBODY WHO STAYS WITH A.P. 
          OHIO, THE UTILITY, THEY CAN WORK WITH A.P. OHIO TO LEVELLIZE THEIR BILL. SO THEY WOULD TAKE THE DISTRIBUTION PIECE AND GENERATION PIECE AND WORK WITH A.P. AND THEY COME OUT WITH A LEVELLIZED PRICE, YOU SHALL A YEAR. THE UTILITY WILL COME BACK AND DO A SURE UP WITH THAT. THE BILL MAY MOVE UP OR DOWN BUT GIVES THE ABILITY TO LEVELLIZE THE BILL. 
          I THINK WE SEE THAT A LOT IN. AT E.P., THE SERVICE TERRITORY, WAS THE DISTRIBUTION COMPARED TO THE BILL ARE HIGH EVEN FOR THE REST OF IT STATE. TO PUT THAT INTO PERSPECTIVE, THE DISTRIBUTION CHARGES AND WE'LL CALL IT IN THE GREATER COLUMBUS AREA MAKEUP 57% OF THE BILL. 
          THAT IS THE PART OF THE BILL YOU CANNOT SHOP FOR. 
          WHERE WE ARE IT'S 44% AND D.P. AND L. AROUND DAYTON IS AROUND 50%. A REASON WHY WE'RE SEEING THAT IS BECAUSE THEY ARE TRYING TO LEVELLIZE THE DISTRIBUTION CHARGES THAT OU CAN'T SHOP FOR, AS WELL AS THE GENERATIONS CHARGES WHICH IS WHAT WE'RE SHOPPING FOR AND PART OF WHY WE'RE HERE TODAY. WORKING THROUGH THAT. 
          DEPENDING ON THE SUPPLIER, IF YOU CHOOSE A SUPPLIER, IT IS THEN ON THE SUPPLIER TO BE ABLE TO BUDGET BILL THE GENERATION PORTION OF THE BILL. IF WE FIND A SUPPLIER, WHO CAN HANDLE THAT, A.E.P. OHIO WOULD DO THE DISTRIBUTION. 
          A SUPPLIER WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE GENERATION PORSCHE. 
          PORTION. IF A SUPPLIER CANNOT HANDLE IT, IT WOULD BE THE GENERATION PORTION THAT WOULD BE WHATEVER COST PER MONTH. K.W.H. TIMES THE PRICE. 
          THAT SMALL PORTION. IT DEPENDS ON THE SUPPLIER. 
          EITHER WAY THE DISTRIBUTION CAN ALWAYS BE LEVELLIZED BILL FROM 
          A.E.P., THE UTILITY. >> B. KOWALCZYK: CAN YOU TALK ABOUT WHY SOMEBODY WOULD USE BUDGET BILLING? 
          >> MAYBE DURING THE SUMMER OR WINTER, I WANT TO STAY WITHIN A RANGE THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE YEAR. 
          A LOT OF TIMES YOU SEE IT AROUND FIXED INCOMES AND OTHER THINGS WHERE SOMEBODY IS LOOKING FOR MORE CERTAINTY ON THE BILL OVER 
          THE COURSE  OF A YEAR. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: ACTUALLY, WHAT PROMPTED ME TO BUDGET WAS AIR CONDITIONING BECAUSE THE FIRST SUMMER I HAD AIR CONDITIONING, ABOUT 12 OR 15 YEARS AGO, AND I GOT THAT $200 BILL, AND I THINK THE LAST SUMMER I USED IT IN MY HOUSE, AND THAT'S WHEN I WENT TO BUDGET 
          BILLING TO GET RID OF THAT. >> I'M A NUMBERS AND STATISTICS GUY. I NOTICED FOR THE AVERAGE CUSTOMER 40% OF USAGE S JUNE, JULY AND AUGUST, SEPTEMBER PERIOD. THAT IS WHERE PEOPLE ARE USING THE BUDGET BILLING TO SMOOTH THAT OUT ALONG WITH THE OTHER 
          CHARGES. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: ALL ELECTRIC HOME YOU HAVE A WHOLE DIFFERENT SCENARIO. 
          >> YES. BEGIN, WE USE THAT AVERAGE 
          WORTHINGTON HOME. >> B. KOWALCZYK: NO MATTER WHAT WE'RE STILL PAYING ONE BILL AT ONE PLACE? 
          >> THAT IS CORRECT. >> B. KOWALCZYK: YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT BUDGET BILLING FOR SOME PEOPLE NOT BUT IT'S STILL 
          EVERY -- >> R. DOROTHY: ONE BILL GOING TO 
          [01:00:02]
          ONE PLACE. >> THAT IS CORRECT. 
          EVEN IF THE SUPPLIER, THEY DO ALL THE TALKING TO MANAGE THAT BY SINGLE CONSOLIDATING BILL. THE NETMETER PIECE LOOKS A LITTLE CRAZY THERE. NETMETERING WE HAVE A COUPLE OF DOZEN PEOPLE IN THE CITY OF WORTHINGTON WHO TAKE OR USE NETMETERING. IT IS ROOF TOP SOLAR IN MOST CASES. SOMEBODY WHO GENERATES ON SITE, THEY CAN TAKE THE VOLUME AND PUT IT BACK ONTO THE GRID. 
          SO FOR SOMEBODY WHO USES ONE THOUSAND KWH AND THEY HAPPEN TO GENERATE OFF OF THEIR SOLAR, 500 A MONTH, A.E.P. WOULD BILL FOR 500. THEY USED 100 IT NETS OUT TO BE 500. IF THEY USED 900 AND GENERATE A THOUSAND THEY WOULD GET A CREDIT, SO A.E.P. WOULD CREDIT FOR THE GENERATION RELATED CHARGES FOR 100K.W.H. 
          SOMEBODY HAVING ON SITE GENERATION, MOST CASES ROOF-TOP SOLAR AND HOW THAT'S NETTED AGAINST THEIR USAGE FOR THE UTILITY TO CHARGE THEM. AND I BELIEVE AGAIN, IN WORTHINGTON WE HAVE 40 PEOPLE OVERALL, BOUT 22 PEOPLE ELIGIBLE FOR THE PROGRAM. SOME ARE ALREADY SHOPPING, AROUND 40 OVERALL WHO HAVE NET METERS ON THEIR FACILITIES. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: 
          >> YEAH, IT ALSO, THOUGH THIS IS NOT PART OF IT. 
          BUT I WILL SAY, IT HELPS ON THE DISTRIBUTION SIDE TOO. 
          BECAUSE BY GENERATING YOUR OWN YOU AVOID DISTRIBUTION CHARGES. 
          THERE ARE SORT OF MULTIPLE LAYERS TO THAT BESIDES JUST THE GENERATION SIDE, IT IMPACTS LOWERING THE VOLUME ON THE 
          DISTRIBUTION. >> CAN YOU REPEAT WHAT YOU SAID, 40 PEOPLE AS OPPOSED TO 22, WHAT IS THE 40 PLEASE? 
          >> WHEN WE GET THE LIST FROM A.E.P., THEY GIVE THE LIST OF EVERY ACCOUNT WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS AND THAT GETS WIDDLED DOWN. THERE ARE PEOPLE -- WITLED -- THAT CAN BE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SHOPPED. 
          PEOPLE ON THE PIP OR THE PERCENTAGE OF INCOME. 
          SO FROM THAT 40, ROUGHLY 15 OR ALMOST 20 WERE NOT A PART OF THAT INITIAL LIST. I WOULD HAVE TO FIND OUT WHY BUT THEY ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE INITIAL SWEEP. 
          I BET MOST OF THEM HAVE SHOPPED IF I HAD TO GUESS, FOR THEIR OWN SUPPLIER BEFORE THE PROGRAM STARTED. 
          >> D. ROBINSON: COULD THEY NOT CANCEL THEIR CONTRACT WITH THE EXISTING SUPPLIER AND JOIN THIS PROGRAM? 
          >> THEY COULD. THEY WOULD STILL WANT TO DO THEIR HOME WORK. BUT ASSUMING THEY ARE COMFORTABLE TERMINATING THE CONTRACT, THEY COULD. 
          >> D. ROBINSON: THERE ARE 40 HOMES OR PROPERTIES? 
          >> I BELIEVE, ROUGHLY. , IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: SO THERE ARE 40 PEOPLE. I BELIEVE THAT WAS PRETTY CLOSE. 40 ACCOUNTS THAT HAD THE ABILITY TO NETMETER. AS FAR AS THOUGH WHO HAVE SHOPPED, ABOUT 7500 ACCOUNTS ON THE INITIAL LIST, CAME OWN TO A BIT SHY OF 5,000. YOU HAD 2,000 PEOPLE WHO HAVE DONE SOMETHING ELSE ALREADY. THAT'S PRETTY TYPICAL FOR A 
          COMMUNITY. >> PRO TEM S. . 
          >> M. GREESON: THERE ARE T 22 OF THE 40 ELIGIBLE FOR THE PROGRAM BECAUSE THEY ARE, I GUESS, THEY ARE PAYING THE 
          STANDARD SERVICE CHARGE. >> AND THAT WAS AS OF A MONTH AGO. WE REFRESHED THE LIST THE NEXT TIME, IT COULD BE UP TO 24. THE LIST IS CONSTANTLY CHANGING AS PEOPLE MAKE THEIR OWN DECISIONS IN THE MARKET. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: BUIL BILLS AND I DID IT THREE YEARS AGO. 
          [01:05:05]
I'M PAST INPERIOD AND -- 
          >> IT DEPENDS ON THE CONTRACT. EVERY CONTRACT IS DIFFERENT. 
          A. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: 
          >> WE HAVE THREE OFFERS ONE FROM A.E.P. AND TWO FROM A SUPPLIER. 
          WE'LL DISCUSS WHY WE HAVE TWO VERSUS ONE IN THEIR SITUATION. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: SO THAT'S WHEN WE GET INFORMATION FROM THE A.E.P. ON THE LIST IT TELLS US WHETHER SOMEBODY HAS SHOPPED BUT NO DETAILS ON THE CONTRACT. THAT IS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION. WE'RE NOT LLOWED TO KNOW THAT. 
          >> D. FOUST: WE RECEIVED THE THREE COMPARISON. 
          >> THAT WOULD BE ONE OF THEM. >> M. GREESON: I HINK IT'S MY 
          FAULT. >> D. ROBINSON: DID YOU STATE HOW MANY INDIVIDUALS IN WORTHINGTON ARE BUDGET 
          CUSTOMERS? >> IF WE WOULD DO THE SWEEP TODAY ROUGHLY 684 WHO WOULD BE PART OF THE INITIAL ELIGIBLE LIST WHO ARE CURRENTLY BUDGET BILLING WITH A.E.P. T UTILITIES, ROUGHLY 14% WAS BUDGET BILLING. 
          THESE PRICES ARE AS OF FRIDAY, WHEN WE STARTED PUTTING THINGS TOGETHER. WANTED TO SHOW, AGAIN, THOUGH WE ONLY BROUGHT THREE OF THESE SIX OFFERS, SORRY, SEVEN, WANT TO SHOW THE SPREAD ON WHERE THINGS WERE. 
          AND WHY IT WAS COMPLEX. WE HAD ONE SUPPLIER WHO STOOD OUT PRICE WISE BUT DIDN'T HAVE THE SERVICES, THEY COMMITTED TO A START OF SERVICES BUT AT THE START THEY DIDN'T HAVE THEM. 
          THEN WE HAVE, AND THAT'S DINGY. AND THEN A.E.P., ANY HAS THE SERVICES, YET THE PRICE WASN'T THE LOWEST. 
          IT WASN'T A CLEAR STAND OUT TO SAY WE HAVE THE LOWEST PRICE, SERVICES, AND THIS IS THE CLEAR WINNER. 
          THAT IS WHAT CAUSES SOME OF THE CONFUSION. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: LONG-TERM STABILITY, A.E.P. HAS BEEN AROUND FOR A LONG TIME. 
          WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER COMPANIES. IF SOME COMPANY BOUGHT THEM 
          OUT. >> IT'S A GREAT QUESTION AND THINGS I TAKE INTO ACCOUNT HEN TALKING TO SUPPLIERS. 
          AND I WILL SAY IT ON RECORD. FIRST ENERGY SOLUTIONS IS A LARGE AGGREGATOR IN THE STATE AND NOT ON THE LIST. 
          THEY ARE IN THE CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF BANKRUPTCY WITH FIRST ENERGY SOLUTIONS. WE TRY TO KEEP OUR EYE ON THOSE THINGS.  THERE IS SIX DIFFERENT COMPANIES HERE. 
          IF I HAD TO BET ONE OF THOSE IS PROBABLY NOT THE SAME NAME IN FIVE YEARS. I SAY THAT FROM EXPERIENCE. 
          I SPENT 13 YEARS ON THAT SIDE OF THE INDUSTRY. 
          THE NAME CHANGED AROUND ME THREE TIMES. 
          IT'S DEFINITELY N INDUSTRY WHERE THERE IS A LOT OF M. AND A. AS FAR AS THE SERVICES AND BEING ABLE TO DO THAT THEY CONSOLIDATE TO THE SAME THING. 
          IF ANY OF THESE OFFERS WOULD GET PURCHASED BY SOMEBODY ELSE, I'M NOT CONCERNED ABOUT SERVICE BECAUSE THERE ARE ALL KIND OF -- THEY CONTINUE TO RAISE THE BAR TO EACH OTHER THAT THEY GET TO 
          THE SAME LEVEL OF SERVICES. >> M. GREESON: WE SENT OUT A -- NOT ON THIS SLIDE BECAUSE RICH'S TEAM TOOK PROPOSALS FOR 10, 34 AND 36 MONTHS. THIS SLIDE THOSE THE 24 MONTHS BECAUSE THOSE ARE WHERE THE MOST COMPETITIVE PRICES WERE. 
          >> THE 24-MONTHS TERM WAS THE LOWEST. 
          [01:10:01]
WE SAW 19 DIFFERENT OFFERS TO TRY TO GET THIS ON ONE SLIDE AND A LEVEL OF APPLES TO APPLES, THAT'S WHY WE'RE SEEING THE 24. 
          JUST SO WE CAN GET AN APPLES O APPLES COMPARISON ON ONE SHEET BECAUSE 19 BECOMES A LOT. THE FINAL SLIDE, THIS SHOULD LOOK SIMILAR TO THE CHART ON THE AGENDA. 
          THESE THREE OFFERS WE CAME TO MAKE THE RECOMMENDATION AND ASK FOR GUIDANCE ON WHAT IS FELT TO BE THE BEST OFFER FOR THE COMMUNITY. AND THE REASONS ARE, LET'S LOOK AT OPTION ONE. WITH A.E.P. ENERGY. 
          THOUGH THE PRICE SHOWS SAVINGS COMPARED TO THE A.E.P. UTILITY STANDARD SERVICE OFFER. IT WAS NOT INLOWEST PRICE BUT THEY O HAVE THE POSITIVES OF OFFERING KEY SERVICES. 
          THEY ARE ABLE TO BUDGET BILL FOR A.E.P., ABLE TO HAND THE CREDITS FOR A RESIDENT OR BUSINESS THAT COULD HAVE NETMETERING. 
          THEY DON'T CHARGE ANY FEES. SOME OF THE OTHER ANCILLARY THINGS, MOST HAVE A PHONE OPT-IN PROGRAM. 
          SO IF SOMEBODY WANTED TO OPT-IN BETWEEN SWEEPS THEY CAN CALL US. BUT A.E.P. DEVELOPED AN ONLINE OPT-IN PORTAL. THAT MAKES IT EASY FOR SOMEBODY WHO WANTS TO OPT IN WITHOUT TALKING TO ANYBODY. 
          SOMEWAY GIVE $50 TO VERYONE WHO ENROLLS TO THE REWARDS STORE. 
          THAT IS SOMETHING THEY HAVE BUILT, THEY HAVE THERMOSTATS AND LIGHT BULBS RELATED TO SUSTAINABILITY. 
          THEY ARE TRYING TO GIVE CREDIT TO USE THAT MONEY TOWARDS THINGS THAT CAN MAKE THEIR HOUSE MORE EFFICIENT. 
          I LAYOUT SOME OF THE OPTION ADVANTAGES IS THAT THEY HAVE THE SERVICES WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IN A SUPPLIER ALL UP FRONT. 
          AND THEN OBVIOUSLY THE EY DISADVANTAGE IN THAT OFFER IS NOT BEING THE LOWEST PRICE. DO WE HAVE INITIAL QUESTIONS 
          ABOUT A.E.P.'S OFFER? >> D. ROBINSON: YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT THE ESSENTIALLY QUALITIES, THE SUPPLIERS HAD THE MOST RESPONSIBLE PROPOSALS, ARE THERE OTHER THINGS THEY DID NOT MEAD. 
          >> B. KOWALCZYK: THIS COVERS? >> YEP. 
          >> D. FOUST: THE TWO THINGS UNDER A.E.P. ENERGY IS ONE THE ONLINE OPT-IN CAPABILITY, I THINK IT'S SIGNIFICANT IN TERMS OF EASY USE. IF YOU GO TO THE PREVIOUS SLIDE, THE FACT THAT A.E.P. ENERGY WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAD THE NETMETERING CREDIT CAPABILITY, I'M SURPRISED THAT IS UNIQUE BUT SEEMS EVEN THOUGH IT'S ONLY TWO HOUSEHOLDS, I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT STATEMENT THAT WE SUPPORT THAT CAPABILITY. 
          >> FOR DON GEE, WE BROUGHT TWO SEPARATE OFFERS, ONE IS FOR, AND THE MAIN REASON IS BECAUSE THEY CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE BUDGET BILLING. THEY HAVE MADE THE COMMITMENT AND PUT IT INTO AN M.S.A., THEY ARE ABLE TO HAVE BUDGET CAPABILITIES BY SEPTEMBER. THE FIRST OFFER OR OPTION TWO ON THE SHEET, SO THAT WAS THE LOWEST PRICE WE HAD SEEN ACROSS THE SUPPLIERS FOR ANY TERM. BUDGET BILLING, NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL SEPTEMBER. SO THOUGH THE PROGRAM COULD START IN JUNE FOR THOSE WHO WOULD WANT TO TAKE ACCESS TO BUDGET BILLING, THAT IS NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL SEPTEMBER. 
          THEY CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE, THEY MADE NO COMMITMENT ON THE NETMETERING PIECE. NO FEES, SIMILAR WEBSITE. 
          THEY ARE TRYING THEIR GREEN-BACK ENERGY PROGRAM. 
          IT IS AN OPT-IN PROGRAM. SOMEBODY CAN OPT-IN AT A SLIGHTLY HIGHER RATE AND I BELIEVE THEY GET $50 PER YEAR TO SOMEBODY WHO OPTS IN TO BE ABLE TO USE, I THINK THEY GIVE OUT 
          [01:15:03]
VISA GIFT CARDS, I BELIEVE A SHOPPING PORTAL TO USE STUFF IN A SIMILAR TYPE OF STORE. THAT IS TO KIND OF, THE IDEA OF MAKING INVESTMENTS IN SUSTAINABILITY. 
          THE OBVIOUS ADVANTAGE -- THE MAIN DISADVANTAGE, NOT HAVING THE BUDGET BILLING. THAT WOULD BE FOR A DELAYED START. IF WE ECIDED WE DIDN'T WANT TO START AT THE FIRST AVAILABLE, WHICH WOULD BE JUNE, WE LIKED THE OFFER. DO WE DELAY THE START UNTIL SEPTEMBER TO START ON DAY ONE WITH THE SERVICES THAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR, EXCLUDING THE NETMETERING AT THAT TIME. 
          SO THAT LAYS OUT WHAT THEY ARE CALLING  27-MONTH OFFER STARTING IN SEPTEMBER AND GO THROUGH DECEMBER OF 021. 
          IT'S VERY SIMILAR, LAYING OUT THE PRICES THERE. 
          BUDGET BILLING AVAILABLE. IN ASSET, STILL NO ETMETERING. 
          AND EVERYTHING BELOW IS ONLINE FOR THE ADVANTAGES AND 
          DISADVANTAGES. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: I HAVE A QUESTION BETWEEN OPTIONS TWO AND THREE. 
          IF WE WENT THROUGH OPTION TWO THEN THE BUDGET BILLING PEOPLE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO OPT-IN UNTIL SEPTEMBER. 
          BUT WHAT THAT -- IF WE START WITH TWO AND THEN THE BUDGET BILLING KICKS IN THEN IS EVERYBODY GOING TO PAY THE DIFFERENT RATE? OR THE PEOPLE WHO OPT-IN UNDER STAY AND THE BUDGET BILL PEOPLE PAY THE DIFFERENT RATE? 
          >> LET'S FOCUS ON OPTION ONE AND THE OPTIONS AROUND THAT. 
          IF THE PROGRAM IF WE DECIDED TO START IN JUNE OF '19 THROUGH 
          2021. >> D. ROBINSON: OPTION ONE? 
          >> OPTION ONE OF DINE GEE, THE JUNE START, THERE ARE A FEW WAYS WE CAN HANDLE THE BUDGET BILL. THOSE WHO CHOOSE TO DO BUDGET BILLING. WE COULD SEND THEM A LETTER AT THE START LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE. AND GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO OPT OUT IF THEY DON'T WANT TO NOT HAVE THE AVAILABILITY FOR BUDGET BILLING ON DAY ONE. THAT'S A POSSIBLE THING. 
          AND THEN WHEN BUDGET BILLING COMES ONLINE THEY CAN OPT BACK IN. THAT'S THE MOST STREAMLINED CASE FOR THE PROJECT. THE OTHER OPTION IS WHEN WE DO THE FIRST SWEEP TALKING ABOUT THE JUNE START, WE DO NOT SEND THOSE WHO ARE CURRENTLY MARKED AS BUDGET BILLING, WE CONSIDER THEM NOT ELIGIBLE. THEY CAN CALL TO OPT IN BUT WE WON'T PUSH THEM TO THE OPT OUT. BEFORE SEPTEMBER, THEY WOULD SEND A SPECIFIC LETTER TO THAT GROUP AND ANOTHER SWEEP SAYING WE HAVE BUDGET BILLING AVAILABLE, IT'S ALMOST RUNNING IN OPT OUT. IT WOULD BE TWO SEPARATE OPT OUTS, THE PEOPLE WHO GET THE LETTER THE FIRST AND SECOND TIME 
          WON'T CROSS. >> 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: THE BENEFIT OF THE CONTRACT PRICE WE ENTER 
          INTO NOW OR A SEPARATE PRICE? >> IF WE DECIDE A JUNE START, WHETHER IT BE JUNE OF 2019 OR 2020 THEY WOULD GET THE PRICE 
          THAT IS SET AT THAT TIME. >> R. DOROTHY: I HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS. I'M A BIT TROUBLED BY THE OPT-IN TO GREEN-ENERGY PROGRAM. IT SEEMS LIKE SOMEBODY IS OPTING IN TO PAY THEMSELVES BACK THE $50 ANNUALLY THEY WILL BE CHARGED IN ADDITION. SO I'M CONFUSED OF WHAT, HOW THAT REALLY BENEFITS ANYONE AND HOW THEY OPT BACK OUT OF THAT GREEN BACK ENERGY PROGRAM. I'M NOT SURE IT'S A GOOD THING TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL SERVICES AND BENEFITS. 
          AND THEN A QUESTION ABOUT THE PRICING OPTIONS AT THE TOP. 
          WAS THAT JUST OR OUR INFORMATION, THE PRICE WITHOUT ADDITIONAL RENEWABLES AND 100% RENEWABLES? ARE WE DEFINITELY DOING THE 100% RENEWABLES? 
          >> THE IDEA WAS WE'RE GOING TO DO 100% RENEWABLES AND THAT 
          [01:20:02]
WOULD BE MY SUGGESTION. BECAUSE THESE PRICE TO BE ABLE TO GET 100% IS SAVING MONEY COMPARED TO A.E.P. SERVICE STANDARD OFFER. THESE OFFERS WITH THE RENEWABLE ARE LOWER THAN ANY OF THE OFFERS ON THE APPLES TO APPLES THAT DON'T GUARANTEE RENEWABLE AND DON'T HAVE TERMINATION FEES. 
          >> R. DOROTHY: IT IS MORE FOR INFORMATION WITHOUT ADDED RENEWABLE AT THE TOP BECAUSE, I WOULD THINK, HOPE THAT WE WOULD AGREE TO 100% RENEWABLE. BACK TO THE COMMENTS, OPT-IN TO THE GREEN BACK ENERGY PROGRAM, WHAT ADDED BENEFIT? SAVING $50, AND DO THEY GET OUT OF THE OPT-IN? IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE A GOOD BENEFIT. 
          >> I WILL ADMIT THIS IS A NEW PROGRAM. 
          AND I DON'T KNOW IF THEY USED IT WITH ANYBODY ELSE. 
          I DON'T KNOW. BUT THEY DEFINITELY WERE LOOKING TOWARDS WORTHINGTON KNOWING THAT SUSTAINABILITY WAS A BIG PIECE TO MAKE THIS AS PART OF AN OFFERING IF SELECTED. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: ON THE SAME QUESTION. 
          ISN'T THERE, $50 EARNED CREDIT TO THE REWARD STORE, OR YOU GET $50 TOWARD THE GREEN BACK PROGRAM. 
          THEY ARE BOTH -- >> R. DOROTHY: NO BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO PAY MORE TO GET INTO THE DINEGY. 
          >> RICH CAN SPEAK TO THE OPT IN, IT'S ANSWERING THE QUESTION YOU HAVE BEEN ADVOCATING FOR ALL ALONG, HOW DO WE REDUCE OVERALL 
          ENERGY, NOT JUST THE COST. >> D. SMITH: IF I PLEDGE TO PAY A HIGHER PRICE PER KILOWATT HOUR I'M GOING TO TRY TO REDUCE MY OVERALL ENERGY USAGE AND I GET $50 TO DO IT. 
          >> R. DOROTHY: I COULD DO IT WITHOUT PAYING EXTRA, I ALREADY 
          DO. >> 
          >> R. DOROTHY: [CHUCKLING] >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: ANYONE 
          ELSE? >> R. DOROTHY: THAT CLARIFIES 
          WHAT MY CHOICE WOULD BE. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, MS. DOROTHY? MR. MEYERS? 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: I DON'T HAVE QUESTIONS SO MUCH AS WHEN I YOU KNOW, SHOPPED AROUND THREE YEARS AGO, NOT -- CERTAINLY DID NOT HAVE A LEVEL OF EXPERTISE YOU PROVIDE. 
          I DO HAVE A QUESTION. WHERE DO YOU LIVE? 
          >> OUTSIDE OF CINCINNATI. MY COMMUNITY DOES NOT 
          AGGREGATE. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: 
          MIC] -- >> I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THEM TO AGGREGATE. I WANT TO GO WHEN WE TALK TO THEM BECAUSE I HAVE A VESTED INTEREST TO GET A GOOD PRICE. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: I WENT THROUGH THE SAME KIND OF ANALYSIS ON A SUPERFICIAL LEVEL AND FOUND A.E.P. COST A LITTLE MORE OR SAVED LESS THAN WITH OTHER COMPANIES. 
          THE NATURAL GAS REGULATIONS, COMPANIES WERE DROPPING OFF LEFT AND RIGHT. A LOT OF BANKRUPTCIES WHEN THAT FIRST STARTED. I WAS A LITTLE CONCERNED WHO I WENT WITH AND I WENT A A.E.P. BECAUSE I PAID A LITTLE BIT MORE BUT I KNEW WHAT I WAS GETTING. THAT WAS JUST MY THOUGHT. 
          IT'S KIND OF A GONE QUANTITY. WHEN I GO TO BUY A CAR, I DON'T BUY THE CAR AS MUCH AS THE DEALER, SOMEBODY I TRUST. 
          I WISH WE COULD GO TO MARKET ON DELIVERY SERVICE BECAUSE I WOULD DUMP A.E.P. IN A HEARTBEAT SINCE MY POWER WAS OFF TWICE SUNDAY MORNING. THAT WAS MY THOUGHTS AND I WOULD LEAN AT THIS POINT TO A.E.P. AND I'M OPEN TO OTHER ARGUMENTS.MR.. 
          >> D. SMITH: I ASKED YOU STRAIGHT UP CAN WE ACHIEVE 100% RENEWABLES AND REDUCED PRICE FROM THE UTILITY AND YOU PROJECTED WE COULD AND I'M PLEASED YOU BROUGHT SEVERAL OPTIONS TO US, NOT JUST THE ONES WE'RE LOOKING AT BUT SEVERAL OTHERS AS WELL. I DO LIKE THE OPTION WITH A.E.P. 
          ENERGY BECAUSE IT HAS ALL THE SERVICES WE'RE ACCUSTOMED TO PRESENTLY. WHEREAS I LIKE ALL THE OPTIONS I 
          LEAN TOWARDS ONE AS WELL. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: MMR. F? 
          [01:25:08]
          >> D. FOUST: I WOULD LIKE TO SAY I WANT TO THANK STAFF AND RICH FOR ALL OF THE BACKGROUND WORK. AND THEN ALSO AS I LISTENED AND WATCHED MY FELLOW COUNCILMEMBERS TONIGHT, I REALLY APPRECIATE THE NOT THAT EVERYONE IS PUTTING INTO THIS. 
          IT'S OBVIOUS THAT WE ALL TAKE THIS VERY SERIOUSLY AND IT'S GRATIFYING TO SEE THAT. THE WAY I SEE IT IS THAT THE CAMPAIGN WAS BASED ON SAVE MONEY CLEAN ENERGY, LIKE MEMBER SMITH, I FEEL HAPPY THAT WE'RE ABLE TO ACHIEVE THE TWIN GOALS. 
          TO ME THE SERVICES ARE ALSO CRITICAL. 
          WE PROMISED IN DIFFERENT WAYS TO THE PUBLIC THAT WE WOULD MAKE THIS A WELL-RUN AND PROBLEM-FREE PROCESS THAT WE BE FAIR AND NO COST OPT-OUT. TO ME THE BUDGETING FOLK ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO KEEP IN MIND. ONE THING ABOUT DINEGY THAT IS A DEAL KILLER, THE IDEA OF A SEQUENCED PROGRAM IF WE WENT WITH THEIR OPTION ONE, THAT WOULD BE CONFUSING. 
          >> D. ROBINSON: NOR DO I WANT TO WAIT UNTIL SEPTEMBER TO COMMENCE THE PROGRAM UNLESS WE HAVE TO. WITH THE NETMETERING FOLK, ALTHOUGH IT'S 22 I VIEW THEM AS HIGHLY IMPORTANT. 
          HOPEFULLY THEY ARE ON THE CUTTING EDGE OF WHERE MORE WILL GO. A.E.P. ENERGY OFFERS THE FULL PACKAGE AND STABILITY THAT MR. MEYERS WAS TALKING BOUT. 
          THEY WILL GET MY SUPPORT, A.E.P. ENERGY. 
          >> I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE ONE LAST POINT. 
          THE QUESTION CAME UP, WHY DON'T THEY HAVE BUDGET BILLING? I WILL SAY BECAUSE PREDOMINANTLY MOST OF THEIR BUSINESS WAS IN SOUTHWEST OHIO, WHICH WAS DUKE. THEY TO DO THE BILLING ON BEHALF OF THE SUPPLIER. AS THE BUSINESS HAS EVOLVED, IT'S BECOME IMPORTANT TO THEM. AS THEY GREW, MOST OF THIS BUSINESS, THEY WAS NOT AN ISSUE FOR THEM. 
          SO THIS IS A LITTLE BIT OF CATCH UP FOR THIS. 
          THAT IS WHY THEY HAVE NOT HAD THE BUDGET BUILDING IN THE 
          A.E.P. FORUM. >> D. FOUST: IS THERE ANYTHING WE'RE OVER LOOKING OR UNDER VALUING IN THE DELIBERATIONS? 
          >> IT'S BEEN VERY INTERESTING TO SIT BACK AND HEAR THE CONVERSATIONS TONIGHT. I'M PROUD OF YOU. 
          WE'VE COME A LONG WAY IN THE LAST 348 DAYS. 
          YOU HAVE ASKED SMART QUESTIONS AND THOUGHT ABOUT THIS IN THE RIGHT WAY, WHETHER FROM EXPERIENCE OR LEARNING THROUGH THIS. I THINK YOU HAVE DONE A GOOD JOB DOING YOUR DUE DILIGENCE. THIS WAS A CASE WHERE, I NEVER BRING MULTIPLE OFFERS. I NEEDED TO UNDERSTAND HOW YOU VALUE THOSE CRITERIA AND IT SOUNDS LIKE TO ME SERVICES OR AVAILABILITY OF SERVICES IS JUST AS HIGH AS A COMPETITIVE PRICE 
          IN THIS INSTANCE. >> D. ROBINSON: ONE MORE THOUGHT. THE 22-MONTH DURATION SEEMS JUST RIGHT TO ME. I VIEW THIS PROGRAM AS A CONTINUATION OF MANY THINGS THE CITY ITSELF HAS BEEN ENGAGING IN IN TERMS OF SUSTAINABILITY. IT'S ALSO A BROADENING OR BEGINNING IN SOME SENSE OF BROADLY NGAGING THE ENTIR IN A PROGRAM LIKE THIS. 24 MONTHS SEEMS LIKE A SUITABLE DURATION IN THAT IT WILL GIVE US TIME TO LOOK AT THE NEXT STEP WE MIGHT UNDERTAKE AS A COMMUNITY SO WELL DONE. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: AM I HEARING THIS NEEDS TO BE A CONSENSUS OF GOING FOR A.E.P. ENERGY? 
          OKAY. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: THAT WOULD BE CONSISTENT WITH THE GENERAL PHILOSOPHY OF WORTHINGTON. 
          WE'RE WILLING TO PAY FOR MORE EXEMERY SERVICES. 
          EXEMPLARY. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: SECTION ONE, INSERT, WE'LL GET A MOTION FOR A.E.P. ENERGY. 
          AND 1A THE RATE OF SO MANY PER KILOWATT HOUR. 
          THE QUESTION IS THAT THE PRICE EAR PRICE WI WITH 100% 
          [01:30:06]
          RENEWABLE UNDER SECTION A? >> THAT WOULD BE WITH T THE 100% WOULD BE THE INTENT OF THE WAY THE RESOLUTION IS 
          DRAFTED. >> I WOULD LOOK AT THAT IS THE ALL END PRICE. WHAT IS THE PRICE WITH THE 
          RENEWABLE INCLUDED? >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: WE NEED A MOTION TO AMEND THIS RESOLUTION IN SECTION 1 BY ADDING A.E.P. ENERGY AND SECTION 1A0.055 DO I HAVE A MOTION? 
          >> D. ROBINSON: MOTION. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIF Y BY SAYING AYE. ON THE -- INSERT. 
          >> HOLD ON JUST A SECOND. >> THE PRICES THAT WERE HERE WERE AS OF FRIDAY. IT'S A COMMODITY LIKE GASOLINE. 
          WE'LL NEED TO GO BACK IF A.E.P. IS THE CHOSEN SUPPLIER I NEED A FINALIZED EXECUTABLE PRICE THAT MR. GREESON COULD SIGN ON. 
          THIS WAS AS OF THE OTHER DAY. THE MARKET MOVED UP A LITTLE BIT TODAY. I DON'T KNOW THE IMPACT. 
          IN FAIRNESS, THIS WAS THE PRICE FROM THE OTHER DAY. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: IS THAT ALL RIGHT AMENDING THIS RESOLUTION? MR. LINDSEY? 
          >> PRESIDENT MICHAEL, MEMBERS OF COUNCIL, THE RESOLUTION WAS DRAFTED WITH THE THOUGHT THERE WOULD BE A PRICE POINT THERE THAT MAY HAVE BEEN A MISCOMMUNICATION FROM WHAT RICH UNDERSTOOD OR WHAT OTHER CITIES HAVE DONE IN THE PAST. 
          I HAVE ALSO FROM PRIOR EXPERIENCE SEEN THE AUTHORIZATION BE TO THE CITY MANAGER TO MOVE FORWARD HAVING SELECTED SOMEONE AND HAD THE LOWEST PRICE. 
          I HAVE SEEN WHERE THE AUTHORITY WENT DO THE CITY MANAGER TO PICK ONE OF TWO BEST ON THE LOWEST PRICE OFFERED AT THAT POINT. 
          THAT MAKES SENSE IF YOU ARE TALKING PRICE AS THE DETERMINER AS THE DISCUSSION REVEALED TONIGHT, THE ADDITIONAL SERVICES THAT A.E.P. OFFERED -- WHAT WE'RE GOING TO NEED. 
          INCLUDE S SOME OF THE SERVICES. >> WHAT WE NEED TO DO IS AMEND THE RESOLUTION FURTHER IF RICH IS INDICATING HE NEEDS TO CONTACT A.E.P. FOR THE FINAL PRICE AT WHICH WE'RE ENTERING THE PROGRAM. YOU NEED TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER, BASED ON THE PRICE THAT A.E.P. GENERATES. 
          I SUPPOSE ONE POSSIBILITY WOULD BE TO DO A NOT-TO EXCEED RATE. 
          THAT FORETELLS A RATE AT WHICH YOU ARE PREPARED INTO CONTRACT 
          WITH A.E.P. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: I'M LOOKING FOR WHAT TO DO WITH SECTION 1A. 
          >> WHAT ABOUT LADGE TO THE EFFECT OF AT THE MARKET RATE TO BE DETERMINED -- OR TO BE CONFIRMED. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: 
          THAT? >> I HAD ASKED FOR INDICATIVE PRICING BECAUSE I KNEW IT WAS TAKE SEVERAL WEEKS SORT THROUGH BOTH BIDS AS WELL AS GETTING PAPERWORK OUT. 
          THEY WOULD HAVE A CHANCE TO FINALLY AND EXECUTE A PRICE. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: WHAT YOU SUPPLIESED THE .05 THAT'S A TENTATIVE PRICE AND THAT WAS THE PRICE OF A DATE CERTAIN THAT ALL SUBMITTERS -- IT WAS THE SAME -- 
          >> EVERYBODY SUBMITTED ALL THE SAME DAY. 
          YES. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: OKAY. 
          >> THIS IS EXTREMELY COMMON WHAT WE'RE GOING THROUGH NOW. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: I WATCHED THE COMMODITY AND STOCK MARKET EVERY DAY, USUALLY FOR OIL AND GAS. 
          I WILL START WATCHING FOR ELECTRIC AND NATURAL GAS NOW. 
          FOR EXAMPLE, OIL WENT UP LIKE A BUCK 40 A BARREL TODAY. 
          COMMODITY IS A PRETTY VOLATILE MARKET. 
          I KNOW OIL AND GAS IS VERY VOLATILE. 
          CLOSELY AT LEAST WITHATURAL GAS- DIRECTION. 
          [01:35:02]
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: GAS HAS GONE UP A LITTLE BIT IN THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. WOULD YOU ANTICIPATE IF I FASHIONED THIS, I TEND TO GO WITH, I LIKE IT NOT TO EXCEED AND I QUOTE THIS PRICE. IF IT'S MORE THAN THIS YOU HAVE TO COME BACK. WHICH MESSES THIS UP A LITTLE BIT. IN YOUR PROFESSIONAL JUDGMENT, DO YOU THINK THAT ELECTRICITY, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU LOOKED AT THE MARKET TODAY, IS IT HIGHER THAN THIS PRICE TODAY? 
          >> I THINK WE HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR IT TO BE HIGHER, I THINK 
          IT'S UP A LITTLE BIT TODAY. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: IF I GAVE A RESOLUTION THAT SAID WE'RE NOT EXECUTING ONE HIGHER THAN THIS -- WE HAVE TO GET ANOTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM US? 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: WHAT ABOUT DOING A. SO IT READ PROVIDERS SHALL PROVIDE POWER AND RELATED SERVICES TO THE CITY'S ELECTRICAL AGGREGATION PROGRAM WITH INDICATIVE RATE OF 
          .05. >> WHAT IF WE AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN GREEMENT THAT -- 
          >> 
          RATE IS DIFFERENT. >> I'LL SAY BECAUSE YOU -- 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: 
          >> BECAUSE YOU PASSED I STILL NEED TO HOLD THEM TO PRICE, RIGHT? AND WE -- 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: LET'S HEAR WHAT MR. LINDSEY IS 
          SUGGESTING. >> IT'S A COLLECTIVE EFFORTS OF THE THREE PEOPLE CLOSEST TO BE, ALL OF A WOULD BE THE SAME. 
          INSTEAD OF THE BLANK PER KILOWATT HOUR, IT WOULD SAY, AT THE RATE APPROVED BY THE CITY MANAGER UPON RECOMMENDATION OF ENERGY ALLIANCES. THAT ALLOWS RICH TO DO HIS MARKET ANALYSIS AND ALLOWS THE CITY MANAGER TO INDICATE A.E.P., YOU WENT UP WAY MORE THAN YOU SHOULD HAVE. 
          WE'RE GOING BACK TO THE TABLE. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: APPROVD 
          BY CITY MANAGER -- >> UPON THE RECOMMENDATION OR YOU CAN SAY IN CONSULTATION WITH ENERGY ALLIANCES. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: OKAY. ANYBODY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH 
          THAT? >> 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: YEAH. >> 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: WOULD THAT HAVE TO OME FROM ONE OF THE PEOPLE WHO ORIGINALLY MOVED? IN OTHER WORDS, MR. ROBINSON OR SOMEONE WHO DID NOT MOVE PROPOSE THAT? 
          >> YES, IT WOULD NEED TO COME FROM ONE OF THEM IF IT WAS A FRIENDLY AMENDMENT. IF YOU DON'T WANT THAT APPROACH, IT'S UP TO SOMEONE TO WITHDRAW THE AMENDMENT AND START OVER. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: DO YOU AGREE TO A FRIENDLY MENDMENT OF HAVING THE COMPANY BE A.E.P. ENERGY AND PART A. READING APPROVED BY THE CITY MANAGER UPON CONSULTATION WITH ENERGY 
          ALLIANCE? >> D. ROBINSON: YES. 
          SECO NDE D BY -- OKAY. THE APPROVAL BY MR. FOUST, ALL THREE OF YOU ARE INVOLVED IN THE INTRODUCTION. 
          DO ALL THREE OF YOU AGREE? OKAY. 
          ALL RIGHT, SO WE NOW HAVE -- DOES ALL OF COUNCIL HAVE TO VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE. AYE ALL THOSE OPPOSED, LIKE SIGN. OKAY. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: I WIL CALL THE QUESTION ON THE RESOLUTION. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE. ALL THOSE OPPOSED, LIKE SIGN. 
          OKAY, NOW WE GET TO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOUR WORK ON THIS. REALLY APPRECIATE IT. 
          I WANT TO THANK YOU OUR COUNCILMEMBERS THAT WORKED ON THIS AND OUR CITY STAFF THAT PUT SO MUCH TIME. 
          [5.A.I Kenyonbrook Sewer Replacement Presentation]
THANK YOU. MOVING ONTO THE SEWER. 
          KENYONBROOK SEWER. >> M. GREESON: PRESIDENT MICHAEL, I'M GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO DAN WHITED TO INTRODUCE OUR CONSULTANT, IMPORTANT SEWER STUDY. 
          MR.  WHITED. >> THANK YOU, MR. GREESON, 
          [01:40:04]
PRESIDENT MICHAEL, MEMBERS OF COUNCIL, FOR THE FUN STUFF. 
          TALK ABOUT SEWER. TONIGHT THIS IS AN OUTREACH EFFORT. WE'RE PRESENTING WHAT WE BE IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO ACCOMPLISH A SEWER PROJECT. 
          THE PROJECT AS OUR CONSULTANT WILL TELL US WILL ORDER E.P.A. 
          TO REMOVE ADVERSE IMPACTS TO RESIDENTS AND WATER WAYS. 
          WE TALKED EARLIER AND REALIZED OVER THE PAST 10 YEARS WE HAVE HAD OVER A MILLION GALLEONS OF SEWER IN THIS SHED ALONE. 
          IT IS AN IMPORTANT GREEN PROJECT AND PROVIDE A HIGH LEVEL OF SERVICE TO OUR RESIDENTS. IN ADDITION TO THIS BODY, WE INTENT TO PRESENT THIS INFORMATION TO HOSE AFFECTED RESIDENTS IN THE COMMUNITY AS WE MOVE FORWARD. 
          SO WE HAVE SPENT HOURS AND HOURS REVIEWING AND WALKING THE WATER SHED, MONITORING SEWER FLOWS AND RUNNING MODELS. 
          WE CONTEMPLATED A MATRIX OF ISSUES AND EVALUATE MANY DIFFERENT CONSIDERATIONS RELATED TO SEWER AND CONSTRUCTION. 
          ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS, LAND DISTURBANCE, DISRUPTION TO ROADS, COMMUNITY QUALITY OF LIFE, WHICH IS IMPORTANT TO US AS YOU WELL KNOW. CONSIDERED INTERRUPTION OF SEWER AND SERVICE LEVELS AND OTHER AREAS. 
          WE HAVE CONSIDERED SEWER PERFORMANCE, SYSTEM PERFORMANCE, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE. THE NEED FOR EASEMENTS, CONSTRUCTION, AS WELL AS OPERATION MAINTENANCE COSTS. WE HAVE GONE THROUGH THAT. AND WE THINK YOU WILL THINK OUR ALTERNATIVE WE'RE PRESENTING IS A CLEAR DECISION. 
          BUT WE UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE HAD A LONG NIGHT AND TH THERE IS A LOT TO CONSIDER. IT'S A COMMUNICATED ISSUE AND YOU WILL HAVE ANSWERS THAT MAY TAKE TIME TO CONSIDER THESE ISSUES, THE CHALLENGES AND THINK THEM OVER. 
          SO WHAT WE ULTIMATELY WOULD LIKE IS CONCURRENCE TO MOVE FORWARD WITH DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION. IF AT THE END OF THE DISCUSSION YOUR ABILITY TO MAKE A DECISION IS NOT QUITE THERE, IT'S PERFECTLY FINE. WE'LL COLLECT YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWER WHAT WE CAN ONIGHT AND ANSWER THE REST AT A FUTURE DATE AND ALLOW YOU TO THINK HINGS THROUGH. 
          WITH THAT, I WOULD LIKE O INTRODUCE MARCY BLAND FROM EMH&T WHO IS BEEN CLOSE TO THIS PROJECT FOR MANY YEARS, AND STEVE TENNANT OUR SERVICE SUPERINTENDENT AND FORMER SUPERVISOR WHO SPENT LOTS OF TIME MESSING AROUND WITH THESE SEWERS. WE TRIED TO TAKE A COMPLICATED ISSUE AND BOIL IT DOWN. MARCY IS REALLY GOOD AND COULD TALK ABOUT IT ALL NIGHT BUT SHE WON'T. 
          GO AHEAD. >> I WILL TRY TO KEEP IT FAST. 
          I WILL NOT TALK FAST BECAUSE I CAN TALK VERY FAST. 
          WE'RE HERE TO TALK ABOUT THE KENYONBROOK SANITARY SEWER. 
          I'M GOING TO TRY TO THINK THROUGH THE QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE AND TRY TO GET THAT IN THIS PRESENTATION AND I WILL DO IT AS QUICKLY AS I CAN. I WANT TO GO OVER WHY ARE WE DOING THIS PROJECT. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE NOT FAMILIAR, COMPLAIN THE CAPACITY ISSUES, THE CHALLENGES FOR CONSTRUCTING A SEWER IN THIS AREA, WHAT ARE THOSE KIND OF SEE IF W WE CAN GET YOU TO ALTERNATIVES AND PRESENT THE ALTERNATIVE THAT WE HAVE PREFERRED TO GO WITH AT THIS POINT AND ARE LOOKING FOR YOUR GUYS' AGREEMENT THERE. WHY ARE WE HERE? IN 2 2009, E.P.A. PUT WORTHINGTON [INDISCERNIBLE] THE CITY OF COLUMBUS. IT'S NOT USUAL I'M QUIET. 
          WHAT THE E.P.A. FINDINGS AND ORDERED IS THAT EACH OF THE INDIVIDUAL COMMUNITIES HAD TO PROPERLY OPERATE AND MAINTAIN SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM. PART OF THOSE THREE OF HOSE REQUIREMENTS WERE THEY PROVIDE ADEQUATE CAPACITY, TAKE ALL STEPS FEASIBLE TO STOP SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOWS AND WATER IN BASEMENT OR SEWER BACK UP. AND MINIMIZE EXCESSIVE INFILTRATION, BASICALLY STORMWATER OR GROUNDWATER GETTING INTO THE SANITARY SEWER THAT WASN'T DESIGNED TO BE THERE. THOSE WERE THE THREE GOALSES OF THE PROJECT. WHAT ID THE CITY NEED TO DO 
          [01:45:02]
FIRST WAS COMPLETE A SANITARY SEWER EVALUATION OF THE ENTIRE SEWER SHED. AND ALSO THEY COULD PICK A SCHEDULE, A FIVE-YEAR AND IMPROVE OR YOU COULD TAKE A 15-YEAR APPROACH, WHICH IS WHAT CITY OF WORTHINGTON DID AND DID AN STUDY AND IMPROVEMENTS AND STUDY AN AREA AND DO THE IMPROVEMENTS. THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS WE HAVE IN THIS AREA, THE PICTURES ARE SHOWING ON YOUR SCREEN ARE SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOWS FROM A VISIT IN MARCH OF 2008. 
          WHERE THE SANITARY SEWER CANNOT HA HANDLE THE FLOW IS IT OVEOVERFLOWS ON THE GROUND OR MAY END UP INA BASEMENTT. 
          TO REDUCE THIS, WHAT THE E.P.A. SAID, YOU HAD TO MITIGATE THE SEWER OVERFLOWS, IF THE SANITARY SEWAGE ENTERS THE ENVIRONMENT FOR A 25-YEAR RAIN FALL EVENT. TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA 3.5 INCHES OF RAIN IN A SIX-HOUR PERIOD. IT'S A LARGE EVENTS. 
          WITH THE WEATHER THE AY IT IS, THEY TEND TO KEEP COMING M MORE THAN A 25-YEAR FREQUENCY. THE E.P.A. SAID YOU HAVE TO MEET A 10-YEAR LEVEL OF SERVICE FOR BASEMEMENTS. 
          YOU CAN'T OVERFLOW 2.89 INCHES IN A SIX-HOUR PERIOD.  WHY DON'T WE DESIGN LARGER FOR A LARGER RAIN FALL EVENT? IT'S COST PROHIBITIVE. SANITARY SEWERS WERE NOT DESIGNED TO HANDLE STORMWATER FLOW. 
          IF YOU WANTED TO PROTECT YOUR COMMUNITY FOR 100 YEAR RAIN FALL EVENT YOU WOULD NEED TO UPSIZE EVERY SEWER IN THE SYSTEM. 
          SO IT'S OT AS COST PROHIBITIVE. 
          EVEN IF WE MADE OUR SEWERS BIGGER, CITY OF COLUMBUS CAN'T 
          ACCEPT THE FLOW FROM US. >> R. DOROTHY: TRYING TO MAKE SURE THINGS AREN'T COMBINED WITH AREAS THAT WERE NEVER MEANT TO INFILTRATE. THIS IS AN ONGOING CONCERN. 
          WE SEE LITTLE BLUE SIGNS THAT SAY PEOPLE STAY AWAY FROM HERE 
          BECAUSE WE HAVE HAD OVERFLOW. >> YES. 
          >> D. ROBINSON: CAN YOU EXPLAIN HOW DOES STORMWATER ENTER INTO THE SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM? I'M THINKING OF PIPES. 
          HOW DOES THE EXTERNAL WATER GET IN? 
          >> 50 TO 60% OF THE FLOW COMES FROM PRIVATE PROPERTIES, EITHER CRACKS IN YOUR LATERAL DOWNSPOUTSES, NOT SO MUCH IN THE CITY OF WORTHINGTON DO WE HAVE THAT ISSUE GOING ON. 
          BUT THERE ARE OLD SANITARY SEWER SYSTEMS SO THE WATER FOLLOWS THE BACK FILL AND GETS INTO THE GENTS AND CRACKS IN THE LATERALS AND MAIN LINES, MAN HOLES. IT FINDS ITS WAY IN. 
          IT'S AN EXPENSIVE PROBLEM TO GET IT OUT. 
          CITY OF DUBLIN WENT THROUGH THE SAME PROCESS FOR DEER RUN SEWER SHED. THEY DID REHABILITATION AND HAVE A 20% RAIN FALL. THEY GET 20% OF THE WATER IN THEIR SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM AND LINED EVERY MAIN LINE WITH THE SEWER SHED. IT'S A DIFFICULT PROBLEM TO FIX. SO THIS PARTICULAR CASE WE LOOK AT IMPROVING THE CAPACITY SO YOU CAN JUST KEEP IT INTO THE SYSTEM FOR THOSE TWO CONDITIONS, 25 YEAR FOR SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOW AND TENURE FOR SEWAGE AND BASEMENT. 
          THE CITY OF WORTHINGTON STARTED THIS PROCESS TWO YEARS BEFORE THE FINDINGS AND ORDERS. WE STARTED WITH SOUTHEAST SEWER SHED, DID A HYDRAULIC MODEL, FLOW MONITORING, FIELD INVESTIGAT INVESTIGATIONS TO SEE IF WE COULD FIND EASY FIXES. AND AGAIN, THE PICTURES THAT ARE ON YOUR SCREEN ARE FROM A SITE VISIT WE DID ON MARCH 2018, WE HAD  SIGNIFICANT RAIN FALL EVENT. 
          AND WE CAME OUT AND DID A WET WEATHER WALK AND POPPED MAN HOLES TO SEE IF THE MODEL WAS PREDICTING CORRECTLY. 
          [01:50:01]
AND IT WAS AND WE FOUND YOU CAN SEE THE MAN HOLES TO THE TOP IF NOT OVERFLOWING. THE PICTURE ON THE BOTTOM CORNER, TH THERE IS A ANHOLE AND THAT IS BUBBLING UP IN THE PARK. OR THE SEWER OVERFLOWING. 
          AS PART OF THE SOUTHEAST SEWER SHED WE RECOMMENDED A THREE-PHASE MPROVEMENT. THE KENYONBROOK SIPHON REMOVAL PROJECT, WHICH IS CONNECTED. THE NORTH BROOK TRUNK SEWER REPLACEMENT AND KENYONBROOK TRUNK SEWER DESIGN WHICH IS WHAT WE'RE WORK ON NOW. ONCE WE STARTED THIS PROJECTS, WE UPDATED THE MODEL TO PUT IN THE KENYONBROOK SIPHON REMOVAL. 
          WE UPDATED THE MODEL TO SEE HOW THE SIPHON REMOVAL PROJECT HAD HELP TO MAKE SURE IT DID WHAT WE THOUGHT. 
          AND UTILIZE THAT MODEL TO COME UP WITH SOLUTIONS FOR THIS NEXT 
          SECTION OF SEWER. >> M. GREESON: CAN YOU DESCRIBE 
          THE SIPHON REMOVAL SUCCINCTLY? >> LET ME GO BACK TO HERE. 
          RIGHT THROUGH THE PARK AREA, WE HAD A SIPHON THERE. 
          THE SIPHON WAS BLOCKED AND PLUGGED AND WE BASICALLY DESIGNED A PROJECT, AN AERIAL SEWER, UP SIZED THE SEWER IN ORDER TO RELIEVE THE NO INTO COLUMBUS' SYSTEM. 
          DOES THAT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION? >> 
          >> IT'S THE PARK NORTH OF THE CEMETERY IS WHERE IT CAME FROM COLUMBUS' PARK. WE HAD TO WORK WITH THE PARK IN ORDER TO CONSTRUCT THE SEWER. THE NEXT SLIDE, WHICH IS THE MODEL RUN WILL SHOW YOU HOW THE IMPROVEMENT IS WORKING. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: TO PROVE MY IGNORANCE, SIPHON IS THE SAME 
          THING AS WHEN I'M STEALING GAS? >> YEAH, IF YOU HAVE A CREEK. 
          SO YOUR SEWER IS UP HERE, YOUR CREEK IS DOWN HERE. 
          INSTEAD OF DROPPING YOUR ENTIRE SEWER DOWN, THEY DROP THAT PIPE 
          AND IT HAS TO PULL THROUGH. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: LIKE WHEN I'M SUCKING ON THE END OF A HOSE. 
          >> THE ISSUE YOU HAVE WITH THAT IS THAT THEY ARE A MAINTENANCE NIGHTMARE, NO WAY TO GET THE EQUIPMENT TO IT. 
          WE HAD TO EITHER -- WE CAME UP WITH A ALTERNATIVE. 
          WE'RE RYING TO GET CROSS COLUMBUS PARK PROPERTY. 
          WE'RE GOING TO CHANGE THE CONNECTION TO COLUMBUS AND THEY WOULDN'T ALLOW US TO DO IT. WE CAME WITH A SIPHON COMING AERIAL CROSSING THE PIPE. WE COME OUT OF THE GROUND, INSTEAD OF A SIPHON WHICH IMPROVES THE CAPACITY OF THE 
          SEWER. >> R. DOROTHY: YOU GOT RID OF 
          THE SIPHON? >> YES, AND YOU HAVE A 24-INCH 
          SEWER THAT GOES THROUGH. >> M. GREESON: WE WOULD HAVE DONE A RIBBON CUTTING BUT IT'S MIDDLE OF THE WOODS. 
          >> ANYMORE QUESTIONS TO THAT POINT? THIS IS A PROFILE OF THE SANITARY SEWER FROM THE POINT WE CONNECT TO COLUMBUS WHICH IS HERE, A PROFILE UP TO NEW ENGLAND AVENUE. THIS IS GOOD FOR PEOPLE TO VISUALIZE WHAT IS HAPPENING. WHY CAN'T WE USE OUR EXISTING SEWERS? THERE IS NOT ENOUGH CAPACITY. 
          WHAT THE MODEL DOES IS THROWS A 25-YEAR RAIN FALL EVENT ON THE SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM MODEL. THIS WILL SHOW WHAT THE SEWER LEVEL DOES. WHEN YOU WATCH THIS VIDEO AND YOU SEE THE MANHOLES TURN RED, IS WHERE WE'RE LOSING FLOW FROM THE YSTEM. DAN IS GOING O RUN THAT FOR ME. AS YOU CAN SEE, WHERE IT SAYS SIPHON PHASE ONE, THAT S ACTUALLY IN. 
          SO THAT SEWER IS FLOWING OOD. WE DON'T HAVE ANY ISSUES. 
          BUT WE'RE RUNNING INTO AXIATION ISSUE WHEN YOU GO TO NORTH BROOK AND YOU SEE THAT SEWER START TO BACK UP AS IT STARTS TO RAIN, THE FLOW RAISES AND YOU GET OVERFLOWS. 
          [01:55:02]
THE RED ARE THE OVERFLOWS WHERE WHERE YOU ARE LOSING SEWER FROM MANHOLES. SO PHASE TWO, WHICH WAS NORTH BROOK THAT WILL RELIEVE THE SECTION FROM WHERE WE STOPPED UP TO THE EAST SIDE OF HIGH STREET. 
          WE HAVE TO PICK UP FROM HIGH STREET UP TO NEW ENGLAND AVENUE AND INCREASE THE CAPACITY. ANY QUESTIONS ON THE MODEL? 
          >> R. DOROTHY: HOW DID YOUR MODEL, HOW WERE THE RESULTS WHEN 
          YOU BACK CHECKED? >> THIS HAS THE SIPHON REMOVAL PROJECT. FROM THAT POINT DOWN WE'RE NOT SEEING RED WHICH MEANS WE'RE HOLDI HOLDING THE FLOW. 
          BEFORE WE HAD RED IN THAT AREA. THIS SHOWS THE NEW PIPES WITH 
          NEW FLOW MONITORING DATA. >> R. DOROTHY: ARE THEY SIMILAR 
          TO WHAT YOU DESIGNED FOR? >> YES. 
          >> B. KOWALCZYK: WE STILL GET SIGNS ON SELBY ON THE SOUTHEAST END OF OVERFLOW AND I DON'T SEE ANY RED SPOTS DOWN NEAR THE 
          NORTH BROOK AREA. >> ON SELBY, WHICH IS ON THE 
          LOCATION -- >> WEST OF HIGH STREET. 
          >> BELOW OR ABOVE THIS LINE? I'M GETTING A BLOCK. 
          [CHUCKLING] LET ME SEE. ON THE NORTH BROOK SECTION. 
          THIS AREA RIGHT THROUGH HERE IS STILL A RESTRICTION. 
          >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: YOU HAVEN'T FINISHED THAT YET? 
          >> RIGHT. CORRECT. 
          >> 
          >> I DON'T HAVE IT ON THERE. YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO SEE IT ON THERE, I DON'T THINK. DO YOU HAVE REALLY GOOD EYES? 
          >> IT IS IN THIS SECTION HERE. >> THE SECTION ON NORTHBROOK HAS 
          BEEN NOT UPSIZED YET. >> THIS REFLECTS THE DESIGN? 
          >> THIS IS SHOWING YOU EXISTING CONDITION RIGHT NOW. 
          THE WAY WHAT IS IN THE GROUND CURRENTLY. 
          IF YOU PLAY THAT AGAIN -- >> 
          >> IT'S NOT IN SOME PLACE. 
          IN THE NORTHBROOK PHASE, IMPROVEMENT, YOU GET THAT SIR CHARGE EVEL COMES UP INTO ALMOST THE TOP OF THE MANHOLES AND IT MAY COME OUT DEPENDING ON THE RAIN FALL THAT OCCURS. 
          IF A 50-YEAR RAIN FALL EVENT HAPPENED, YOU WOULD SEE MORE. 
          WE CAN'T DESIGN TO THAT. >> R. DOROTHY: THIS IS SHOWING WE'RE GRAVITY FED. WE'RE LUCKY ENOUGH. 
          >> THIS IS GRAVITY FED, YES. >> ONE THING. 
          EVEN THOUGH THE MANHOLES ARE SHOWING THERE, THERE IS CRACKS 
          IN THE PIPE. >> DID I DERN THAT OFF? 
          >> SOME OF SEWAGE IS COMING OUT OF THE GROUND, NOT THE MANHOLE. 
          IT'S SURCHARGING OUT OF THE GROUND VERSUS COMING UP OUT OF THE -- WE HAVE, WE HAVE TO GET NORTHBROOK, THE NEXT PHASE WILL TAKE THIS SEWER IMPROVEMENT TO THE EAST SIDE OF HIGH STREET RIGHT HERE KENYONBROOK. AND WE HAVE TO TAKE IT FROM THAT LOCATION JUST AT THE EAST OF HIGH STREET ALL THE WAY UP TO NEW ENGLAND. AND IT'S A VERY CHALLENGING CORRIDOR. THE EXISTING SEWER RUNS ALONG KENYONBROOK AND THEN IT JUMPS ACROSS TO PARK AVENUE AND THEN IT RUNS AT THE LONG RUSH RUN THROUGH THOSE PROPERTIES. 
          AND IT'S VERY DIFFICULT CONSTRUCTION. 
          AND I'LL GO THROUGH SOME OF ISSUES THAT WE HAVE. 
          WE'RE GOING TO HAVE UTILITY CONFLICTS. 
          AS WE WALKED THIS ALIGNMENT WE HAVE POWER POLES AND GAS LINES, 
          [02:00:06]
BUILDINGS, THERE IS A LOT OF EASEMENTS WE'LL HAVE TO NEGOTIATE BECAUSE WE CAN'T PUT IT BACK IN THE SAME TRENCH BECAUSE WE'RE UNDER HOMES. WE'RE -- NEAR POLES, CLOSE TO STRUCTURES. SO IT'S A VERY CHALLENGING CORRIDOR. WE LSO HAVE ON THESE PICTURES IS A FIELD WALK WE TOOK WITH THE CITY THAT JUST SHOWS APPROXIMATELY WHERE THAT EXISTING SEWER S ALONG THAT ALIGNMENTT. ALIGNMENT. 
          THE FIRST PICTURE IS A POOL WE'RE WITHIN A FEW FEET OF. 
          THAT TAKES AWAY OPTIONS THAT ARE TRENCHLESS LIKE A PIPE BURSTING BECAUSE YOU CAN'T DO IT IN THAT CLOSE OF  VICINITY TO A STRUCTURE. THERE IS A LOT OF MATURE TREES, ARCHITECTURAL BUILDINGS, HOMES, THAT WE ARE -- WOULD BE IMPACTING DURING THE CONSTRUCTION. 
          ALSO, CONSTRUCTION ALONG NORTHBROOK OR KENYONBROOK WE HAVE ONLY ONE EGRESS AND ONE INGRESS. 
          SO WHEN YOU ARE CONSTRUCTING A SEWER IN THAT AREA, TRYING TO MAINTAIN ACCESS TO THE PROPERTYSIZE EXTREMELY CHALLENGING. WE'RE ALONG THE CREEK. 
          SOME OF THE PICTURES SHOW OUR FIELD WALK ALONG THE EXISTING AND IMPACT OF TREES WOULD BE PRETTY SIGNIFICANT. 
          AFTER THE PRESENTATION AND YOU SEE THE SIX ALTERNATIVES WE LOOKED AT, IF ANYBODY WAS INTERESTED IN WALKING THE ALIGNMENT,  IT IS EYE OPENING WITH THE CHALLENGES WE'RE FACING. THE ALTERNATIVE EVALUATION, THERE ARE SIMILARITIES I WANT TO TALK ABOUT. 
          THESE ARE CONCEPTUAL ALIGNMENTSES. 
          THERE ARE A LOT OF SOLUTIONS THAT WILL WORK. 
          WE TRIED TO NARROW IT DOWN TO SEVERAL. 
          WE HAVE SIX THAT WILL WORK, WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM, MEETS THE E.P.A. REQUIREMENT FOR 25 AND TENURE. 
          BUT ONES WE CHOOSE A CONCEPTUAL ALIGNMENT WE HAVE TO REFINE IT AND GO THROUGH THE DESIGN PROCESS TO FIGURE OUT EXACTLY WHERE IT WOULD GO. FOUR OF THELOTOMIES, ONE, TWO AND FOUR, AND FIVE ARE WITHIN $400,000 OF EACH OTHER. 
          SO WE DON'T TALK ABOUT COSTS. FOUR OF THE AIN ONES ARE VERY CLOSE AND SIMILAR IN COST. ALL OF THE ALTERNATIVES THAT WE PROPOSED MEET THE .P.A. REQUIREMENT. 
          ONE OF THE MAIN THINGS  WANT TO TALK ABOUT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CONSTRUCTING GRAVITY SEWERS AND CONSTRUCTING A FORCE MAIN. WHAT WE HAVE PROVIDED IS A TYPICAL TRENCH DETAIL OF WHAT YOUR GRAVITY SEWER LOOKS LIKE AT A 12-FOOT DEPTH AND THE CONSTRUCTION FOOTPRINT VERSUS A FORCE MAIN. YOU CAN GO UP AND ABOVE UTILITY CONFLICTS, MOVE SIDE TO SIDE AND UP AND DOWN AND YOU HAVE A SMALL TRENCH OPENING. YOU SAVE A LOT OF TREES, VOID CONFLICT WITH TREES, PUT THEM IN ROADWAY RIGHT-OF-WAYS WITHOUT HAVING A LARGE EASEMENT. TRENCH, YOU ARE TALK A 45-FOOT WIDE CONSTRUCTION PATH. TRYING TO GET IT SMALLER COULD BE DIFFICULT. YOU NEED TO CLEAR TREES ALONG A VERY DEVELOPED CORRIDOR, I GUESS IS A GOOD WAY TO PUT IT. 
          OUR ALTERNATIVE NUMBER ONE SHOWS BASICALLY A REPLACEMENT IN PLACE, ALONG THE SAME ALIGNMENT TO A CERTAIN EXTENT. 
          THERE IS A FEW PLACES WE HAD TO DEFLECT FROM THAT ALIGNMENT DUE TO PROXIMITY TO EXISTING HOMES. WE PROPOSED A RAVITY ALIGNMENT FROM HIGH STREET UP TO NEW ENGLAND FOLLOWING ALONG THE SAME CORRIDOR. AND WHAT WE'RE DOING IS COMPLETELY REPLACING THE 12-INCH LINE WH WITH THE 18. 
          AND IT'S TOTALLY GRAVITY. ONE OF THE BENEFITS OF THIS IS WE CAN IN THIS LOCATION NEAR KENYONBROOK, THE SEWER GOES UNDER A HOME, AND WE CAN GET OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THAT HOME. 
          THE NEGATIVES OR CONS OF THIS ALIGNMENT IS THERE IS 
          [02:05:04]
SIGNIFICANT DISTURBANCE ALONG THIS CORRIDOR. 
          THERE WOULD BY 12 EASEMENTS THAT WE NEED TO NEGOTIATE AND POSSIBILITY OF UTILITY CONFLICTS WHEN DEALING WITH A GRAVITY SEWER YOU DON'T HAVE A LOT OF PLAY GOING LEFT TO RIGHT OR UP AND DOWN. YOU CAN'T AVOID THE CONFLICTS WITH LIKE A FORCE MAIN. ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE 
          ALTERNATIVE? >> M. GREESON: THE PREVIOUS SLIDE WHERE YOU SHOWED THE TYPICAL TRENCH, HOW MUCH OF THAT, I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO DISCUSS HOW MUCH OF THE TYPICAL TRENCH FOR A GRAVITY WOULD OCCUR IN EACH OF THOSE SO THEY 
          UNDERSTAND THE IMPACTS. >> FOR THIS WHOLE ALIGNMENT BASICALLY GOING TO BE YOUR TYPICAL TRENCH. 
          THERE ARE AREAS OF THIS THAT GO FROM 20 TO 15 FEET. 
          SO YOU ARE LOOKING BETWEEN 35 AND 40-FOOT CORRIDOR, SWATH ALONG HERE THAT YOU NEED TO PRETTY MUCH CLEAR IN ORDER TO GET THAT CONSTRUCTION THROUGH THERE. 
          >> D. ROBINSON: THE ONE HOME THAT THE EXISTING LINE GOES UNDER, CAN YOU IDENTIFY HAT ON THE MAP, PLEASE? 
          IS IT -- >> SO KENYONBROOK IS RIGHT HERE. KENYONBROOK DRIVE. 
          AND THEN THE SWIMMING POOL IS RIGHT UP HERE I BELIEVE. 
          >> M. GREESON: THEY CAN'T SEE IT ON THE SCREEN. 
          >> I'M SORRY. >> MOVE THE CURSOR IF YOU CAN. 
          >> HERE'S WHERE THE HOME GOES UNDER, OR THE SANITARY GOES UNDER THE HOME. I BELIEVE THE SWIMMING POOL IS IN THAT. IS IT THAT? OKAY. WHAT THE PROFILE IN THE TOP, THAT IS THE NEW PROFILE WHEN THE NEW SEWER IS CONSTRUCTED ACCORDING TO THE MODEL. YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON ALTERNATIVE ONE? OKAY, ALTERNATIVE TWO. 
          ANOTHER GRAVITY OPTION. WE CAN ALSO GET THE SANITARY SEWER OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THAT HOME. 
          IT'S ALL GRAVITY. AND WHAT WE LOOKED TO DO ERE WAS TO REROUTE SOME OF THE SANITARY SEWER FROM SOUTH STREET AND BRING IT DOWN GRANBY. AND THIS WOULD LET YOU REHABILITATE A PORTION OF THAT AND PULL FLOW TO ALLOW THERE TO BE ENOUGH CAPACITY. ALLOWS US TO NOT CONSTRUCT FROM JUST THE BROOK SIDE OVAL UP TO SOUTH STREET. 
          THAT PORTION OU WOULDN'T HAVE TO CONSTRUCT. 
          YOU WOULD HAVE TO TAKE IT FROM SOUTH TO NEW ENGLAND. 
          SO WHAT WE STARTED LOOKING AT HERE S WHERE COULD WE PULL FLOW OFF THE SYSTEM TO ALLOW THE EXISTING SYSTEM TO CONVEY THE FLOW? SO WHAT THIS IS A NUMBER OF COMBINATIONS OF HOW DO WE GET ENOUGH CAPACITY TO MAKE THE EXISTING LINE WORK SINCE WE DON'T WANT TO REPLACE THE WHOLE THING. THAT IS THE ALTERNATIVES I'M GOING TO RUN THROUGH. ALTERNATIVE THREE WAS ACTUALLY TWO PUMP STATIONS, PUTTING A PUMP STATION ON NEW ENGLAND AND PUMPING UP NEW ENGLAND AND DOWN, IS THAT HAMPTON? IS THAT THE NAME OF THAT ROAD? AND THEN DOWN  DOWN TO HIGH STREET. WE WOULD PULL THAT FLOW OFF. 
          WE WOULD CONSTRUCT A SMALL PIECE OF GRAVITY RIGHT AT HOWARD FROM SOUTH TO HOWARD AND RUN IT DOWN. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: ARE WE ON ALTERNATIVE FOUR OR THREE? 
          >> FOUR. >> D. ROBINSON: WAS THREE THE TWO-PUMP? OKAY. 
          >> THREE. SORRY. 
          THEY ARE VERY SIMILAR. THIS HAS THE PUMP STATION AT NEW ENGLAND. AND WE RUN DOWN AND BRING THAT FLOW TO HIGH STREET VIA FORCE MAIN. 
          PULL FLOW FROM SOUTH STREET DOWN TO HOWARD. 
          THERE IS A LITTLE BIT -- >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: WHAT IS INVOLVED? 
          >> FOR WHICH UN? >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: 
          >> PHYSICALLY IN THE PUMP STATION? 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE? 
          DO I SEE IT? >> YES. 
          DO YOU HAVE THAT EMAIL I SENT EARLIER? 
          I CAN BE A VARIETY OF THINGS. >> IT CAN BE STAINLESS WELLS WITH PANELS ABOVE THE GROUND. IT COULD BE ENCLOSED IN A SHED OR BRICK SURE. YOU CAN DO JUST ABOUT ANYTHING. 
          BUT THE SIZE OF IT -- >> FOR THIS PARTICULAR, DEPENDING ON THE ALTERNATIVE, THE SIZE IS ABOUT 2,000-GALLON A 
          [02:10:03]
MINUTE A PUMP STATION, ABOUT A 10-FOOT DIAMETER MANHOLE. 
          YOU AN GO IS UNDER THE GROUND, OR EVERYTHING IS IN A BUILDING, A NICE ARCHITECTURAL SOUND BUILDING. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: OKAY, BUT -- YOU SAY ARCHITECTURAL BUILDING. THAT MEANS SOMETHING VERY, VERY DIFFERENT IN THIS TOWN. OKAY?  AND THAT'S WHAT I'M DRIVING AT. YOUR LOOKING AT PUTTING AT ONE OF THESE CLOSE TO NEW ENGLAND ACTIONER RIGHT? 
          >> YES. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: AND IT'S IN THE PARK? IS THAT WHERE IT IS? 
          >> THAT ONE IS SHOWN AT THE PARK. 
          YES. >> THESE ARE CONCEPTUAL LOCATIONS. THIS IS CONCEPTUAL SAYING E NEED TO PULL FLOW FROM THIS AREA TO -- 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: A 10 BY 10 BUILDING, POTENTIALLY IN THE 
          PARK? >> YES, I WILL TELL YOU WE PUT SOME RECENTLY PUMP STATIONS IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION 20 FEET FROM SOMEONE'S DOOR, ARCHITECTURAL FITS INTO THE SURROUNDINGS. I HAVE PICTURES WE CAN PROVIDE LATER OF WHAT THAT CAN LOOK LIKE. 
          IT CAN BE AS NICE TO FIT INTO THE EXISTING SURROUNDINGS, ESPECIALLY WITH THE AREA YOU ARE IN. 
          YOU CAN -- MAKE IT AS OBSCURE AS YOU NEED TO. 
          SO IT'S -- >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: 
          ALSO IN THE PARK? >> THIS ONE, YES. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: ON PARK BOULEVARD? 
          >> YES, THERE WOULD BE A PUMP STATION HERE. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: THE ONE OFF OF NEW ENGLAND EAST GRANDVILLE PARK? THAT IS 161. 
          MOSES RIGHT. >> THIS S NOT -- 
          >> M. GREESON: THIS IS NOT THE RECOMMENDED ALTERNATIVE. 
          >> THIS IS NOT THE RECOMMENDED ALTERNATIVE. 
          WHAT THIS DOES IS ALLOWS YOU TO PUT A SMALLER CONSTRUCTION FOR THE FORCE MAIN. WE HAD ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE, A ONE-PUMP STATION AND PARTIAL GRAVITY AT NEW ENGLAND AND GRAVITY FROM BROOK SIDE OVAL DOWN TO KENYONBROOK. 
          THAT WAS ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE WE LOOKED AT. 
          I WON'T GO THROUGH THE DETAILS UNLESS YOU WANT. 
          ALTERNATIVE FIVE IS ONE PUMP STATION AND ONE FORCE MAIN IN THIS GENERAL AREA, ALLOWS US TO REDIRECT IT DOWN AND REHABILITATING THE EXISTING SEWER. 
          THE MAINTENANCE WOULD BE EASIER BECAUSE YOU HAVE A SOLID SEWER. 
          YOU'RE UTILIZING THE EXISTING CAPACITY. 
          THIS PUMP STATION ONLY TURNS ON WHEN IT RAINS. 
          YOUR FLOW GOES GRAVITY WHEN YOU HAVE A LARGE RAIN FLOW AND THEN DIRECT THE FLOW TO WHERE YOU HAVE CONSTRUCTED THE SEWERS. 
          YOU HAVE A SMALLER FOOTPRINT WITH A CONSTRUCTION. 
          YOU HAVE A LOT MORE FLEXIBILITY AND YOU CAN PUT IT WIN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY SO MINIMAL EASEMENT. 
          >> D. ROBINSON: AO-ARE THE PERFORMS ELECTRICAL? WHAT IF THERE IS A POWER OUTAGE. 
          >> ON SITE GENERATOR AND IT KIC KICKS ON. 
          OR THEY HAVE A HYDRAULIC PERFORM. 
          SO WE CAN LOOK AT DIFFERENT ALTERNATIVES. 
          THIS THING TURNS ON WHEN IT RAINS AND STORMS, BIG STORMS. IT IS IMPORTANT TO HAVE BACK UP POWER, BECAUSE WHEN YOU NEED IT IS WHEN IT'S TORMING. THIS ALTERNATIVE ALLOWS US TO LIMIT ANY MAJOR CONSTRUCTION IN THE PARK. 
          AND YOU UTILIZE YOUR EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: THE MAP. >> YES. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: ALTERNATIVE FIVE PUTS THE PUMP STATION IN 
          SOMEBODY'S YARD. >> THIS IS THE GENERAL LOCATION WHERE WE NEED TO PUT IT. IT WOULD NEED TO BE IN THAT'S AREA, WE WOULD HAVE TO WORK ITH PROPERTY OWNERS, EXISTING EASEMENTS, WHERE WE HAVE THEM AND WHERE COULD WE PUT IT. 
          IN THE GEN GENERALLY -- AREA -- THAT IS A VERY LOW POINT. IF YOU TRY TO GO TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT, YOU END UP WITH A 30 OR 40 PUT DEEP SEWER TO PULL THE FLOW TO THE PUMP STATION. THE LAST ALTERNATIVE WAS A STORAGE OPTION, PUTTING STORAGE IN THE PARK, AND BOULEVARD PARK. I WOULD HAVE ONE PUMP STATION UP NEAR NEW ENGLAND. AND THEN YOU WOULD RUN A GRAVITY 
          [02:15:04]
FEED FROM -- YOUR EXISTING GRAVITY WOULD STAY IN PLACE AND REHABILITATED. YOU WOULD HAVE A PUMP STATION AT NEW ENGLAND AND PUMP INTO A MILLION GALLON STORAGE. 
          THIS IS DOUBLES THE COST. BUT WE DID WANT TO SAY WE LOOKED AT THE ALTERNATIVE. WE DID A DECISION MATRIX. 
          WE LOOKED AT ALL DIFFERENT ISSUES. 
          YOU CAN LOOK AT THAT LATER. WE AME UP TO THE PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE, FIVE. WHICH IS THE ONE-PUMP STATION NEAR NEW ENGLAND, THE COST WAS $1.8 MILLION. 
          THE ANNUAL OPERATION MAINTENANCE COST ABOUT $16,650. 
          IT'S GOING TO NEED ONE EASEMENT. 
          CONSTRUCTION FOOTPRINT IS MUCH SMALLER AND FLEXIBLE. 
          NOT A LOT OF DISTURBANCE BECAUSE WE CAN IT IT WITHIN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY AND AVOID CONFLICTS WITH TREES, UTILITIES AND OTHER 
          ISSUES. >> M. GREESON: WE CURRENTLY HAVE A SYSTEM, WE'RE BLESSED TO HAVE A SYSTEM THAT HAS NO PUBLICLY OW OWNED PUMP STATIONS. WE IDN'T COME TO THIS -- THESE RECOMMENDATIONS LIGHTLY. BECAUSE RATHER NOT HAVE ONE. 
          BUT WHEN YOU -- YOU ARE INTRODUCING, YOU KNOW, A MAINTENANCE AND MECHANICAL PIECE OF EQUIPMENT THAT MR. TENANT HAS TO SEND PEOPLE TO MAINTAIN AND WORK WITH VERY REGULARLY. 
          SO AND WE'VE BEEN BLESSED DO HAVE A SYSTEM THAT IS ALL GRAVITY FED. HOWEVER, YOU KNOW, IF YOU CHOOSE TO WALK THE SITE YOU WILL REALIZE THE OPTIONS WE CAN USE FORCE MAINS AS OPPOSED TO REPLACEMENT OF THE GRAVITY LINE ARE MOSTLY IN THE STREET AND MUCH LESS INVASIVE. 
          AND SO IT'S HARD TO IMAGINE US CONSTRUCTING SOME OF THOSE ALTERNATIVES THAT SHOW US REPLACING GRAVITY LINE IN THE VICINITY OF CREEK AND IN PEOPLE'S YARDS WITH THE IMPACT 
          ON TREES. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: QUESTI? 
          >> M. GREESON: AND PROPERTY EASEMENT ACQUISITIONS. 
          >> D. ROBINSON: I DON'T KNOW WHAT OUR PROCESS IS HERE TONIGHT. MY FEELING IS I WOULD LIKE TO STUDY THE DESIGN MATRIX AND SEE A PICTURE OF ONE OF THE PUMPS AND WALK AT LEAST SOME OF ROUTE MYSELF BEFORE FORMING A 
          JUDGMENT. >> R. DOROTHY: I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW LONG THE FOREST MAIN VERSUS THE GRAVITY MAIN. 
          OBVIOUSLY, IF WE HAVE CONSTANT PRESSURE I THINK THE LIFESPAN COULD BE LESS THAN THE GRAVITY MAIN. 
          >> FOR THE PIPE MATERIAL ITSELF, YOU ARE GOING TO SEE THE SAME TYPE OF LIFE, 50-YEAR LIFE. I JUST READ THE OTHER DAY THAT P.V.C. THEY ARE PRED PREDICTING 100-YEAR LIFE. 
          YOU WILL GET ABOUT THE SAME LIFE EXPECTANCY OF THE FORCE MAIN AS YOU WILL THE -- THE GRAVITY. THE PUMP STATION HOWEVER, THE PUMP STATION IS INFRASTRUCTURE THERE, YES, IF YOU MAINTAIN IT PROPERLY, IT'S THERE. PUMPS ABOUT A 15 TO 20 YEAR REPLACEMENT. THIS ISN'T GOING TO FEED THIS AREA ALL THE TIME. IT'S ONLY ACTIVE WHEN IT RAINS. 
          THAT WILL EXTEND YOUR LONGEVITY OF THE SEWERS, THE 
          INFRASTRUCTURE YOU ARE PUTTING. >> R. DOROTHY: HOW LONG HAVE THE MAINS LASTED US? I MEAN, THIS SEEMS LIKE WE'RE REPLACING EVERYTHING IN THE GROUND. 
          >> THEY HAVE BEEN THERE FOR 100 YEAR.  YEAH.  70 EARS, 90 YEARS. THE -- IT'S AN INTERESTING MIX OF ISSUES. WHEN YOU ASK WHAT A LIFT STATION LOOKS LIKE, IT CAN BE ANYTHING. IT CAN BE BUILT IN A BUILDING THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS IF YOU WANTED THAT EXPENSE. 
          THE PICTURE I SHOWED YOU, THAT'S WHY I DIDN'T PUT IT ON THE SLIDE SHOW, I HAVE SEEN THEM IN HIGH-END GOLF COURSES, NEAR 
          [02:20:01]
MILLION DOLLAR HOMES. WE CAN BUILD THEM AS YOU LIKE. 
          YOUR OINT ABOUT LIFE WAS AN EXCELLENT GOOD. 
          THEY LAST QUITE A BIT OF A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. 
          THEY DON'T HAVE AS HIGH OF PRESSURE AND DON'T RUN AS MUCH. 
          THEY ARE EASIER TO MAINTAIN BECAUSE YOU ARE DIGGING A FEW FEET AS OPPOSED TO -- I KNOW YOU CAN MAINTAIN THOSE DEEP SEWERS IN OTHER WAYS BUT IT'S MORE INTENSE. 
          THE BIG THING HERE IS I ENVISION WHAT THESE PROPERTIES AND ROADS AND COMMUNITIES WILL LOOK LIKE WHEN YOU GO OUT WITH BACK HOES AND DUMP TRUCKS, I DON'T WANT LIKE TO DO THAT NEXT TO SOMEBODY'S HOUSE OR POOL. I WOULD BE A TOTAL MESS AND -- NO, YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE MUCH, MUCH -- 
          >> 
          PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: THIS IS FIT 
          IN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY? >> THE LINE THAT GETS YOU TO HIGH STREET CAN FIT WITHIN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY, ASSUMING YOU DON'T HAVE UTILITY CONFLICTS. IF WE WENT WITH THIS OPTION WE WOULD CHOOSE THE ALIGNMENTT FROM. 
          I SHOW IT GOING NEW ENGLAND AND THEN COMING DOWN FROM THERE. 
          BUT WE DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO FOLLOW THAT PARTICULAR ALIGNMENT. WE COULD PUT IT ANYWHERE. 
          >> WRAP AROUND AND TAKE IT UP AND DOWN. 
          >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE DROP. 
          >> ABOUT IT BEING A CERTAIN ELEVATION BECAUSE IT'S IT'SURSE 
          FOD. >> YOU CAN PUT IT DOWN THE MIDDLE OF IT STREET. A LOT OF ALTERNATIVES. 
          WE CAN MOST LIKELY FIT IT WITHIN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY. 
          IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GO DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET WE'RE LIMITING. YOU NEED A FIVE-FOOT WIDTH AREA, 
          VERSUS 25 TO 40 FEET. >> PRO TEM S. MYERS: WHEN ONE F THESE PUMPS KICKS ON AND IT'S IN MY BACK YARD, AM I GOING TO KNOW 
          IT? >> YOU ARE NOT GOING TO KNOW THE PUMP STATION IS RUNNING BECAUSE THEY ARE WELL UNDERNEATH THE GROUND. THE GENERATOR KICKED ON, YOU WOULD HEAR IT. BUT YOU SHOULDN'T HEAR THE PUMPS THEMSELVES RUNNING. THERE HAS BEEN COMPLAINTS IF YOU HAVE AN ODOR IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE, AGAIN, IT'S ONLY RUNNING WHEN IT'S MOSTLY RAIN WATER FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES. 
          WITH IT WOG BEING THAT CLOSE TO RESIDENTIAL, TO MAKE SURE THERE IS NO ODOR. THERE IS THINGS YOU CAN MINIMIZE TO ARE NUISANCES BEING THAT CLOSE TO A HOME. 
          AGAIN, WE PUT THEM IN THE IDDLE OF A COMMUNITY THAT IT FITS RIGHTS INTO THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE BUILDING. 
          AND THEY WORK. IN THIS CASE, IT'S NOT RUNNING ALL THE TIME, ONLY WHEN IT'S RAINING. 
          THIS ALLOWS YOU TO UTILIZE YOUR EXISTING SEWER, AND REHABILITATE THAT SO THAT INFRASTRUCTURE IS NOT WASTED. 
          IT'S USING UNTIL IT STARTS RAINING. 
          THE MAJORITY OF THE RAIN FALL IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO GO THAT DIRECTION UNTIL YOU GET TO A CERTAIN ELEVATION OR INTENSITY 
          OF RAIN FALL. >> PRESIDENT B. MICHAEL: DO COUNCILMEMBERS WANT A COPY OF THE POWERPOINT. 
          >> M. GREESON: WE'LL DISTRIBUTE THE MATRIX IN A FORMAT THAT IS MORE ELIGIBLE. WE'LL DISTRIBUTE THE POWERPOINT AND ANY MAPS. I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO ON THE WALK. I THINK IT'S VERY BENEFICIAL TO UNDERSTANDING WHAT IS GOING ON HERE.
