Approve Minutes – a. July 24, 2023 - Motion by Snobeck to approve minutes as presented. Seconded by Weierke, Motion Carried. 2. New Business a. Well 5 Retaining Wall - At the January, 2023 meeting, the Water Board directed staff to consider additional options for the retaining wall repair. TKDA was retained to review repair options and has submitted their report. Per the report “One option considered and discounted was rebuilding the existing wall with similar materials. The disadvantage of this option is that the failure will likely occur again. There is no evidence of drain tile below the wall and the limestone backfill may be insufficient to handle additional loading due to any potential water behind the wall.” The recommended option is complete replacement of the retaining wall with Prefabricated Modular Block Wall materials. Motion by Snobeck to receive the report and proceed with the design and construction of a replacement Well 5 retaining wall using Prefabricated Modular Block Wall materials as recommended. Seconded by Weierke, Motion Carried. 3. Approve Bills – Minor clarification was provided to the Board on budget charges. Motion by Weierke to approve the bills as presented in the amount of $69,271.96. Seconded by Snobeck, Motion Carried. 4. Open Forum – Project & Information Update a. Water Efficiency Rebate Program – Only those residents approved since the last Water Board meeting have been listed on the attachment. Resident interest in this program to reduce water consumption remains strong. b. Comprehensive Water System Planning – The process to complete the comprehensive plan update continues and is on schedule. Late this fall, the water and sanitary sewer system models will be updated based on the land use changes. This information will then be used to review the need and timing of future improvements with the Water Board. c. Utility Rate Study – The Utility Rate Study presentation delivered to the City Council on by Ehlers on July 17, 2023 was included in the Water Board packet. The presentation materials were reviewed.
