LCityof <br />Louisville <br />COLORADO SINCE 1878 <br />Memorandum 1 Department of Public Works <br />To: Utility Committee <br />CC: Heather Balser, City Manager <br />From: Kurt Kowar, P.E., Director of Public Works and Utilities <br />Date: 3/1/18 <br />Re: Initial Utility Policy Framework Discussion <br />The City develops policies over time related to various areas within the City. Areas that do not <br />operate by Ordinance but have many policies are the Utility Funds. <br />Staff recognizes that it is challenging to understand what policies exist, when they were created, <br />and the source or background of the policy. <br />Staff also recognizes the Utility Committee would like to engage in policy discussion for <br />preparation of any 2019/2020 as well as longer term rate impacts. <br />An idea for a framework is provided in this packet to illustrate and start a conversation around <br />how best to track and discuss policies moving forward. This effort will organize context of <br />conversations, provide future reference for policy makers, and give clarity to discussions. <br />Due to time constraints of overlapping packets and internal deadlines the framework document is <br />being provided in an as -is very early form. <br />Staff would like feedback from Utility Committee regarding: <br />• Would this be useful? If so: <br />• What information needs added? <br />• What information needs removed? <br />• How would you like the format modified? <br />7 <br />
