“It's not complicated at all. When Public Works goes and turns it on, they'll take a picture of the meter when they go because the application has the time for starting the electric and turning the electric off. So Public Works will be there at that time to turn the electric on. They'll take a picture of the meter. When they go turn the electric off, they'll take a picture of the meter. That form will probably end up in Shawna's lab. Electric rates are real simple. It'll be however many kilowatts or how many watts have been used times the rate.”
