The City also has some projects coming up that need assistance with funding, and the utility accounts need to help fund these costs. Staff reached out to four vendors to get quotes for a rate study to help determine the amounts needed to fund these accounts and projects. We received three quotes, and they all range from $14,000-$15,000. Staff received them from Abdo, Ehlers, and Erickson NorthStar. Recommendation – Staff would like the Council to consider Abdo. They have a good understanding of the City’s financial standings as well as knowledge of navigating the utility software the City uses.
