Title
CAPITAL BUDGET AMENDMENT # 16 - Water Utility / No. 18 - Advanced Metering Infrastructure, p. 143
Body
Add funding to install an automated meter reading system to the Utility's 65,000 accounts. This will allow customers to closely monitor and control water use and thereby conserve water. The Utility will be able to implement conservation water rates, monitor the system for leaks, evaluate and optimize system operation and improve customer service as a result of the AMI system. An additional $8,400,000 will be needed in 2012. Other funding is from Water Utility revenue bonds.
