Staff Report & Agenda Item Details

Citizen comments. Mr. Graveley opened the floor to citizen's comments. Mr. Mike Villarreal, CML Insight, briefly reviewed the asset management services provided by his company. He explained that the platform includes identifying all STW A assets such as motors and pumps, downloading manufacturer information and conducting relevant research in order to train an artificial intelligence assistant to work with the information. A maintenance program would be created that can be implemented to STWA's crew to assist in keeping warranties valid and maintaining equipment. He asked that STWA contact him and he would provide further information. Mr. Andrew Mendez, 405 E. Alice, Kingsville, thanked members of the Board for asking questions. He said that the Kenedy Groundwater District has been approached in the past and has said no to groundwater projects. He added that the cost increases to customers would be excessive if rates are increased. He has emailed the district attorney and has pending comments with the Office of the Attorney General questioning if STW A exceeded their statutory authority which could null and void the contract with Seven Seas.
