RESOLUTION
Concurring with the Rochester Public Utility Board Resolution Adopted 2030 Power
Supply Resolution authorizing execution of activities necessary for implementation of a
2030 Resource Plan.
WHEREAS, the Rochester Public Utility Board (RPUB) approved a Resolution at its April 26,
2022, (Attachment A) meeting authorizing work on the preliminary steps necessary to ensure the
power supply options identified in the updated Power Resource Plan will be in place by the
required date of April 1, 2030; and
WHEREAS, our current wholesale power supply contract is set to expire on March 31, 2030; and
WHEREAS, Rochester Public Utilities (RPU) is ready to begin execution of the initial tasks with
the consideration that several items have long lead times as identified in the decision timeline
(Attachment B), and therefore need to begin this year to maintain the project schedule; and
WHEREAS, this requested action does not commit the City to either of the capacity resource
options approved in the plan but allows for the future viability of both options.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Common Council of the City of Rochester,
Minnesota, does concur with the RPUB Resolution and authorizes the actions within it to
commence.
