MINUTES OF THE
October 13, 2006
Called meeting
The called meeting of the
Greenwood Metropolitan Commission was held Friday, October
13, 2006 at 1:00 p.m., in the Training Room of Greenwood
Metropolitan District Technical Service Facility, 110 Metro

I.
Chairman Haynie called the meeting to order.
II.
Chairman Haynie gave the statement of compliance with
the notification provision of the Freedom of Information
Act.
III.
Approval of Three Phase, Trailer Mounted Generator
Mrs. Meyer stated that the
staff is recommending the second low bidder due to the fact
that the apparent low bidder Godwin Pumps did not meet the
specifications. Godwin Pumps took exception to all
generator mounted receptacles and power cord assemblies
which are required to make the unit compatible with existing
GMD pump stations. Commissioner Monaghan asked what it
means to take exceptions. Mrs. Meyer said that the low
bidder actually states that they are taking exceptions to
all of the generator mounted receptacles and power cord
assemblies which means that they are not going to supply
them. The low bidder is bidding their basic unit and is not
customizing it to what our specifications stated.
Commissioner Hancock moved
and Commissioner Smith seconded the motion to award the bid
for the trailer mounted generator to the second low bidder,
J & T Service in the amount of $41,998.95. The motion was
approved.
IV.
Minutes
Commissioner Watts asked if
the commission meeting minutes are available on the
internet. Mrs. Meyer said that currently they are not
available. Commissioner Monaghan said that he has spoken to
Jeff Auman and all Metro needs to do is provide Jeff with a
copy of the approved minutes. Mrs. Meyer said that the
website is under construction and was not sure if Metro
wanted to place the minutes on the website yet.
Commissioner Monaghan asked what is not complete in regards
to the website. Mrs. Meyer said that some work has been
done on the website, but some of the department information
has changed. Metro still needs to meet with Jeff and Ken
regarding the entire website. Some of the information on
the website needs to be updated. Chairman Haynie asked if
we could keep a count of how many visitors we have on our
website. Mr. Waldrep said that is currently being done.
Commissioner Monaghan stated that it is hard to find a link
for Metro on the County’s website. Commissioner Monaghan
said that CPW has already spoken to the County on several
different occasions regarding the website. Commission
Hancock said we should also use the local television channel
for advertisements.
V.
Rate Study
Commissioner Monaghan asked
when the Board is going to discuss the rate study. Manager
Coleman said that Metro is obligated to have a rate change
of 9% by January 1, 2007. Manager Coleman said it is the
structure of the rates that needs to be finalized. Manager
Coleman said the budget for FY 07 has a 9% rate increase
starting mid-year. Commissioner Monaghan said that the
board requested Daryl Parker to review the master meter list
and he did not. Manager Coleman said that Daryl has
received some information from CPW and it is not 100%
complete. Commissioner Monaghan said that CPW was under the
assumption that they provided Daryl with all of the
information that he needed. Manager Coleman said that he
was under the impression that Metro was going to adopt the
same minimum structure that CPW has. Metro does not have a
way to administer the different type of minimums without CPW
doing it. Manager Coleman said that Daryl had not completed
reviewing the master meter information to add to this
report. Commissioner Monaghan asked for a date from Daryl
Parker as to when the master meter information will be ready
for the Board to review.
VI.
With no further business, the meeting was adjourned
at 1:10 pm.
