(MRI) <br /> oeonlo P P <br /> OSSEO to monitor activities of the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission on behalf of <br /> PLYMUTH <br /> RICHFIELD cities. MRI's proposal makes no reference to the Suburban Rate Authority's (SRA) <br /> ROBBINSDALE activities in this area, and the SRA was not contacted by MRI about it. • <br /> ROSEVILLE <br /> SAVAGE <br /> ST.LOUIS PARK As you may recall from our previous mailing to your city, the SRA is a joint <br /> SHEE <br /> SHOREVIEw powers organization of cities formed in 1963 to regulate and participate in rate <br /> SPRING PARK regulation of public utilities on behalf of its municipal members. Several years <br /> WAYZATA <br /> WEST ST.PAUL ago, SRA's joint powers agreement was amended to permit it to participate in <br /> WOODLAND matters growing out of relations between the MWCC and SRA members. Since <br /> that time the SRA has been quite active in the area, dealing directly with the <br /> MWCC on a host of issues, keeping its members informed of Commission activities, <br /> and establishing a good working relationship with the Commission. <br /> If your City sees merit in a cooperative venture with other cities in monitoring <br /> the MWCC - and we think you will - we urge you to consider SRA membership. The <br /> cost is low, the effect on the Commission is persuasive, and SRA membership <br /> provides an array of other benefits to the City and its public utility customers. We <br /> think the MRI proposal lays out some strong reasons for your City joining the SRA. <br /> We'd appreciate your sharing this letter with your City Council. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Ilet -4010,f <br /> Robert DeGhe, ' • <br /> Chairman, SRA Executive Committee <br /> • <br /> cc: Jim Strommen <br /> Dave Kennedy <br /> Glenn Purdue <br /> Executive Committee <br /> 470 PILLSBURY CENTER • MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55402 • (612) 337-9300 <br />
