Number 12. Please. Agenda item number 12, Resolution 31694 relating to Seattle Public Utilities, establishing a customer review panel to provide input to the 28 2018 through 2023 Strategic Business Plan Update. Councilmember Herbold. Thank you. Ordinarily, we would send this resolution to my my utilities committee for discussion, but we are working on a quick turnaround. The Seattle Public Utilities has a desire to get this review panel up and running. So we're sending it directly to full council without committee review. Just some quick background. Seattle Public Utilities has a six year strategic business plan. It's updated every three years. SPU expects to submit a new 2018 2023 proposed plan to council by mid-May 2017. When SPU developed its last plan, the Council directed SPU to create a customer review panel to provide input into that plan. And at the time, the panel was composed of nine members, five appointed by the mayor and four appointed by the council. The panel dissolved once the council adopted the 2015 2020 plan. This is an effort to reconstitute that committee. In addition to this panel, the utility also has three additional ongoing customer advisory committees, one for each water, solid waste, drainage and wastewater. Thank you for the comments about this resolution. I move to adopt resolution 3169. For those in favor of adopting the resolution, vote I those opposed vote no. The motion carries and resolutions adopted. The chair will sign it next. Agenda Item.
