Citizen-volunteers sought for input
group
ROCHESTER, MN—The second phase of
the power supply planning study is in full swing.
As part of the study process, RPU plans to create
a task force to gain valuable and useful public
input. Volunteers are now being sought to fill
up to 12 openings on the task force.
The purpose of the task force is to gather input
from various citizen segments on the various
demand- and supply-side options that will be
considered as recommendations in the study by
Burns & McDonnell, the St. Louis-based consultant
retained to conduct the study.
To create a balanced input group, task force
members will be selected from the following
categories of interest: commercial, residential,
environmental, and government/industry.
Task force meetings will occur from noon-1 p.m.
on the fourth Tuesday of July (July 27), and
the second and fourth Tuesdays of August and
September. Boxed lunches will be provided during
meetings.
Task force members will be selected based on
a brief application that can be obtained by
calling 507-280-1500 or by clicking

July 9 through 4 p.m. July 16. To qualify for
consideration, an applicant must be a resident
of the City of Rochester.
