Home My WebLink About11 South River Street Parcels Agenda Item # K TRUCKEE DONNER Public Utility District Memorandumadosed session To: Board of Directors From: Peter Holzmeister Date: December 29, 2004 Subject: South River Street Parcels: 19-130-26, 19-139-27, 19-130-28 and 19-130-29 Summary: The board declared the four parcels at the end of South River St surplus in June of 2003. At the end of the sixty day notification process, none of the four public agencies expressed any interest in the properties. In October of 2003, the board authorized staff to offer the four parcels for sale to the general public. It wasn't until June of 2004 that the parcels were placed on the market. History: The property was placed for sale to the general public in June of 2004 after the four agencies voiced that they weren't interested in the property. There were three original bidders for the properites, slowly two of the three bidders dropped out of the process and removed their offers. New Information: The District has been in active negotiations with CLS Investments of Modesto, California. We have almost reached resolution on easements for Nick Sassarini, Mitch Clarin and the District. Once all the negotiations are complete the District would like to enter into escrow over the four parcels on South River St. Recommendation: I recommend that the board allow staff to enter into escrow with CLS Investments of Modesto, California once all the easement issuse have been resolved.

On this date, we downloaded routo401 into the new data collector for readings, This route includes parts nf Tahoe Donner, all of Donner Lake, the area around the airport, Martis Valley Estates, Riverview Homes, Truckee Pines Apartments and Truckee Senior Apartments. Reading un the data collector was begun nn November l7, By the end nf the day, all nf the OMR(radio read)meters in Tahoe Donner and Donner Lake had been read. The remaining accounts were read on November 18. This resulted in only 23 days between the October 26 reading and the November 18 reading for the senior apartment customers. The normal read schedule for this route in November was for the 16th—23rd. Had we maintained that schedule, the November bill for the seniors would have been for 28days. It was necessary to read these accounts while the installer/trainer was here from November 16— 18 to assure that the data collector was working properly and to assure that the program that retrieves and posts those readings to customer accounts was functioning properly. Many times, hardware changes will require software changes as well and this needed inbe done while the installer/trainer was here. In December, the read schedule for this route was from the 16'h through the 27 th. This schedule was extended because of the two day Christmas holiday. The senior apartments were read on the 27m, resulting inaJ9 day bill. On December 29, 2004, 1 received a call from Sal Marsala, a resident at the Truckee Senior Apartments. &1,. Marsala often calls toward the end of the month to get his bill amount so that he can pay it before he receives the bill in the mail. When /told Mr, Marsala the amount owing, he told mothat there must bn some mistake because he had been gone for several days over the Christmas holiday. Ho has complained many times about the fact that the senior apartments have an electric wall furnace that does not heat well and he did so again and asked if his portable radiator-type heaters would use more power than the wall furnace. I told him that I could not answer that question, but that | would refer him noScott Terrell. Scott asked me for the number of days in the billing period and I immediately saw that November had only 23 days while December had 39days. | explained this tn Mr. Marsala and even told him that the average daily use was within 2kvvh from his November tn December bills. Ho said that his bill should not boso high because ho had been gone, but that ho would come in and pay it. That afternoon, Mr. Marsala came in and he seemed quite angry from the start. His body was shaking and Karen Battler and | thought that he was going 10 have a stroke he was onupset. Ho said that he was going\ogoto Sacramento and talk to the PUB about how badly w/o were treating the seniors. | apologized over and over again for the large number of days difference between his November and December bills. I told him that we have always tried to keep to our regular reading schedule sothat these types of things don't take place. | explained again why his November bill had oo few days and I showed him how his average daily usage was only 2 kwh different from November to December(31 vs 33). He continued to say that he was going to the PLIC and they would set us straight about how to treat the seniors. | told him that the PLID is not governed by the PLIC; that our Board of Directors was responsible for establishing our rates and procedures. H*said, "You mean like Joe Aguera?" | answered yes and ho said that hm was going tugo visit Joe. Then he said that he was going to get some of the seniors together and come to our next meeting to complain. Ho asked me when the meetings were held and I told him the next one would be on January 5, 2005. He said that he would be there, paid his bill and left the building. Truckee Donner Public Utility DistriCtBeard of^virectors Joseph R-Aguera J.Ronald Hemig Business Office (530) 587-3896 FAX 0330) 587-5056 Patricia S.Sutton Tim Taylor William L.Thomason General Manager Peter L.Holzmerster MEMORANDUM To: Board of Directors Peter Holzmeister, General Manager From: Mary Chapman, Administrative Services Manager Subject: Customer Complaint Date: January 5, 2005 It came to my attention earlier this week that we had received a customer complaint from one of the residents at the Truckee Senior Apartments relating to his bill. The problem stemmed from the fact that the customer's November bill was for a short billing period (23 days) and his December bill was for a considerably longer billing period (39 days). it is highly unusual for this to happen, but it did. The problem occurred due to a combination of our meter reading equipment upgrade and the impact that the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays had on the reading schedule. Since there is the possibility that some of the residents from the Truckee Senior Apartments may be attending tonight's meeting, Peter thought that it would be beneficial to foreworn the Board by explaining the circumstances and the complaint. I asked Rosana Matlock, the billing supervisor to provide me with the details. I have attached her explanation. Unfortunately, Bev Johnson the meter reader coordinator is not available to shed further light on the circumstances. In summary, the billings are accurate. To add to the problem, it was very cold during this time period. We can certainly give them more time to pay the second billing if it creates a hardship for them. Additionally, we can add them to the equal payment plan to smooth out their payments each month. We currently have 8 Truckee Senior Apartment residents on the equal payment plan and it seems to be working for them. Anyone going on the program needs to know that even though they would be paying an even amount each month, they are responsible for all kilowatt hours used.
