WMfD I I ClN Mc RECOMMENDED ACTION: Hold a public hearing and adopt Resolution No. 53 -220 setting rates for sewer se to be effective July 15, 1993. ITEM EXPLANATION: The sewer enterprise fund is dependent on sewer service fees and lateral installati fees for its support. No general fund revenues are dedicated to the'operation and/ maintenance of the sewer system. A Sewer Rate Study, prepared by James M. Montgomery, Consulting Engineers, Incorporated, was accepted by Council on January 22, 1991. At that meeting, the noticed public hearing. A hearing was noticed and Council approved recommend2 to increase the sewer rate, establish a replacement reserve fund and initiate indusi pretreatment fees. At the July 28, 1992 City Council meeting, the present residential sewer service fec $13.06 was adopted. This rate includes depreciation of historic asset value of the system. The Sewer Rate Study assumed that sewer rates would be increased dur the 1990-91 fiscal year to cover depreciation. However, this did not occur until the 1991-92 fiscal year, subsequent to that year's sewer rate increase. Also included i Sewer Rate Study was the recommendation that depreciation be increased gradu: from 75% in 1991 to 100% by 1993 based on historic cost of assets. Council directed staff to prepare the required ordinances for Council consideration 1 The rate increase that was adopted in July 1992 brought depreciation coverage to 100%. However, with other projects being completed during 1992-93, the subject potential increase would have to be revisited the following year to cover depreciatil the finished projects. When developing the sanitation budget for fiscal year 1993-! 8 staff analyzed the sanitation enterprise fund to determine if further increases were needed. The analysis showed that, although the fund would end FY 1992-93 with balance of $300,000, it was due to one-time savings or income. 5 z 0 F 0 a a J z 5 0 The completion of such projects as Phase IV at Encina and the pump station at Hc Plant, as well as other smaller improvements, has increased the depreciation expc portion of the sanitation enterprise budget from $766,000 to $1,100,000. An incre; of 5% in the sewer service rate is needed to fund the additional depreciation costs Reductions of approximately $1 50,000 were made in the sanitation budget in orde reduce the increased cost to the customer. An additional 5% will raise the sewer service fee from the present $1 3.06 per residential customer to $1 3.70. The Watf Commission reviewed the information at its May 12 and 26 meetings and is recommending the rate of $13.70 to the City Council. The flow based rates are st- in Exhibit 2.

FDSCAL DMPACU Current sewer service rates do not provide sufficient revenues to pay for increased depreciation expenses for fiscal year 1 993-94. The proposed increase in sewer service rates will provide an additional $186,000. The new rates will generate sufficient revenue to cover current operating expenses and the additional depreciation expense. The average single-family home will experience a monthly increase of 64 cents, which equals $7.68 annually. EXHIBITS 1. Resolution NO. 9 3-220 2.
