MEMORANDUM
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: CITY MANAGER
RE: SEWER RATE STUDY
Briley, Wild and Associates has completed its review of the
City ' s sewer rates and prepared the report recently delivered
to you. BWA has determined that an adjustment in rates is
required to meet projected operating expenses, and to meet
the technical revenue coverage requirements of our outstanding
bond issue . BWA has provided alternative methods to adjust
the rates to meet the revenue requirements, with the most
practical being to continue the present flat rate system for
residential customers and water consumption rates for commercial
customers . The recommended rates are sixty percent higher
than the present rates which were last changed in 1981 . These
proposed rates are shown on page 11 of the report.
