E-1 John Cobb, Director of the Public Utilities of the City of Rochester
was present and discussed the Adoption of the Southern Minnesota
Power Agency agreements. These are the Capacity Purchase Agreement
and Power Sales Contract with Southern Minnesota Municipal Power
Agency. Mr. Cobb stated that the City of Rochester purchases its
power during peak times from Dairyland Co-op Power and that is our
only source. He urged the Council to approve this. Some question
arose on the part of the Council. If other cities did not subscribe
to this agency, would the City of Rochester be liable for more of a
percentage of the cost. Mr. Cobb stated that again since we only hav(
Dairyland to rely on for additional power, we would eventually have t(
consider other sources. This is that alternative. Cost could vary
depending on alternatives at the time. Mr. Cobb stated that even
tho other cities dropped out, this is still the economical way to
obtain the additional power because the remaining people would need
less megawatts and the percentage should be:less. President Postier
stated that this is a serious step, he stated that the City of Rochesi
could be tied up in this agreement for 50 years and desired to have
at least one other major city share. Austin and Owatonna are cities
that are considered. President Postier stressed the fact that if the
City approves the agreements, then we should make a motion contingent
on withdrawing in case the other cities don't .join the agency.
Alderman Solinger stated he was confortable with the figures given
him and stated that we should urge Austinto stay with the agency.
Tom Leonard 6805 Highway 63, Rochester stated'that.Owatonna is.buildir
an addition to their power plant and wondered if this would have any
effect on this agreement. Having no other comments, Larson moved,
