REPORT ELECTRIC AGGREGATION UPDATE

Charles de Casteja, managing partner of Good Energy spoke regarding the current issue with electric aggregation. Charles explained that the high cost of the utilities were related to supply costs due to inflation. The utility had to purchase on Monday after Easter and it had been the highest day in 15 years. The utility came out with their June rates that were published and provided to the City Manager and those rates had essentially tripled. The utility had not purchased enough power and bought more on Monday. Good Energy made the decision to return the customers to Ameren default rate because the rate would have been higher had they not. If you were on an alternate supplier you could come off for two months but then would need to make a decision for the remainder 10 months. The market was volatile. Good Energy will be trying to find a hedge starting in August and believe that the markets will settle down. The mid continent grid for the Ameren utility and 11 other states, scheduled retirements of fossil fuels with a natural transition into renewals. During COVID, those scheduled renewables fell behind due to supply issues, tariffs with China, and natural gas being one of the biggest feeds for electricity increased. As natural gas prices increase so does power. It would take six years to bring up the old plant. Residents do not have to take any action. If a purchase is made there will be an opt out period but the moment to purchase may come suddenly within the next two weeks ideally before Good Energy would have to inform customers that they did not get the rate and would be returned to the utility for the rest of the year. The period Good Energy is trying to lock in is for 28 months beginning in August, if it cannot lock in a rate that means that Ameren was the better deal.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS

8.1. Resolution No. 413-22/23 Approve Class Action Consent Decree City Manager, Mr. Mark Rothert, described the resolution regarding the approval of the Class Action Consent Decree. Mr. Rothert remined Council that this was a revisit from two weeks ago related to ADA compliance with sidewalks. The class action lawsuit took place in April 2021 and the consent decree would settle all claims. In the decree the City agreed to hire an engineering consultant and create a transition plan to prioritize repair and improvement of all inaccessible sidewalks. The City also agreed to spend $250K a year for improvements and procure $1.5M on accessibility improvement over the next 3 years. The City’s cost-share for settlement of the lawsuit was requested up to $400K in settlement costs, other costs were budgeted and realized throughout the year with capital projects. The insurance company would pay out $500K, equitable to $350K. The requested amount of $400K was due to administrative costs for mailings as part of the agreement would come out of the general fund reserves.

Councilmember Hilst discussed the types of complaints that could be filed.

Mr. Justin Reeise added that all sidewalks evaluated by TWM would move to the top of the list.

8.2. Discussion on Public Hearing for snow removal policy

Councilmember Hilst questioned whether the Council was in agreement of scheduling a public hearing regarding the snow removal policy the same night as the vote or a separate night prior the vote. Councilmember Hilst supported holding a public hearing prior to the vote.

Mayor Luft recommended scheduling a public hearing at the June 13, 2022 regularly scheduled Council Meeting and scheduling the snow removal policy on the July 11, 2022 Council Meeting agenda for a vote.

Councilmembers all gave their consensus.

8.3. Resolution No. 414-22/23 Approve Engineering Agreement with TWM (Thouvenot, Wade & Moerchen, Inc.)

City Manager, Mr. Mark Rothert, presented the request to Council to approve and adopt the resolution approving the engineering agreement with TWM to survey all of the City’s sidewalks, prioritize sidewalks, and produce an updated Right-of Way Transition Plan for ADA Compliance. The item was tied to the Class Action Consent Decree, as TWM Inc. was specifically named as the consultant in that agreement and the survey and transition plan was an item that the opposing counsel felt strongly about. The RFQ was published in early 2020 with eleven responses. The City Engineer along with opposing counsel agreed that TWM, Inc. was best suited. The agreement outlined the scope of work that included an hourly rate service outside of the scope of the agreement that would need to fulfill the requirements of the Consent Decree.

Council discussed that any amount over $15,000 would come back to Council for approval and adding to the list any restoration by utilities and contractors that were not city projects.
