Your utility meter is being upgraded! The City has begun installing its advanced metering system through a pilot project. Up next: Citywide installment.
The City’s current meters are at the end of their operation life and must be replaced with up-to-date technology and equipment. Stillwater City Council approved spending $4.1 million for the electric meters and $4.8 million for the water meters from the Electric Rate Stabilization Fund and the Water Capital Fund.
Why are we doing this? Here's some benefits of your meter upgrade:
Secure online access to your hourly water and electric usage
More efficient utility billing
Ability to predict and report water leaks automatically
Immediate reports to the City when your power goes out
Data encryption to keep your information safe
What should you expect?
We don’t need anything on your part— we’ll take care of it all.
Installation will take us 10 to 20 minutes
Expect an electric service disruption for 10 to 20 minutes during installation
Water service will not be interrupted

As it has been documented that smart meters can cause negative health effects for people like me with EMF sensitivities, I would like information on opting out of this "upgrade."
Thank you

Hi, Kyle. Thank you for your concern.
In-depth review of scientific literature by the World Health Organization revealed that the small amount of radio frequency (RF) energy produced by AMI’s is not harmful to human health. RF emitted by AMI’s is well below the limits set by the Federal Communications Commission and it is below levels produced by other common household devices like cell phones, baby monitors, satellite TVs, and microwaves. With over 25,000 articles published on the topic over the past 30 years, no credible evidence shows any threat to human health from RF emissions at or below the exposure limits developed by the FCC.
The program is still being developed and a decision on opting out has not been made yet. Stay tuned for updates.
