RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached ordinance which revises wholesale
water and wastewater rates and rates for raw water service and provide an effective date of
billing on or after November 1, 1996.
DISCUSSION
Each year wholesale water and wastewater rate studies are prepared in accordance with the
terms of the uniform wholesale customer contracts.
For FY 1997 rates, the wholesale water rate study was conducted by Deloitte & Touche, LLP,
while the wholesale wastewater study was completed by staff. The studies indicated that the
rate structures below will recover the costs of providing wholesale service
A joint meeting of the Wholesale Water Advisory Committee and the Wholesale Wastewater
Advisory Committee was held August 2, 1996 to present the studies and the rate requirements.
