AGENDA REPORT
FOR
PUBLIC.HEARING AND DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON SETTING
WATERRATES AND CHARGES PURSUANT TO CHAPTER15.16 OF PETALUMA MUNICIPAL CODE AND REPEALING RESOLUTION No. 00-185-N.C.S.
1, ENECUTIVESUMMARY:
The City of Petaluma is conducting a public hearing regarding the need to increase water
service rates for continued proper operation and maintenance of the water facility. The
primary factors behind the need for a rate increase are a 19% increase,in the cost of
purchasing water from the Sonoma County Water Agency, an estimated 50% increase:in
electrical costs and funding needs for the Water System 5 Year Capital Improvement
Program. A.year 2001 annual water cost surveyfor bay area cities indicates the average
monthly cost,of water service for a single-family residence is approximately $30.The last
water rate increase in Petaluma was in November of 2000. Currently, the average
monthly retail water charge for a single-family home in Petaluma is $22.,The'proposed •
water rate increase will increase this average monthly cost for a single-family household,
to $28.35 per month.
2. BACKGROUND:
•
A notice of a public hearing to consider a water rate increase was sent to all City of
Petaluma water customers April 2001. A notice of the public hearing'"and proposed
water rate increase was also,published in the Argus-Courier on Wednesday, May 23; and
Wednesday, May 30, 2001. Starting May 30th, copies,of the proposed water rate increase
were also made available at the City Clerk's'office, City Hall, 11 English Street,
Petaluma, California.
Revenue to operate and maintain the City of Petaluma's water utility is collected'bi
• monthly from residents and businesses that are connected to the water system. Bi-
monthly water payments support operation and maintenance of a water utility that
includes over 200 miles of system,pipeline, 18,000 water services and'meters, 2,400 fire
hydrants, 6,000 valves, 17 wells, 11 reservoirs, 7 pump stations,,and 7 regulating stations.
Last year, over 3.6 billion gallons of water were delivered to the residents of Petaluma.
Of this total, about 90%of the water was purchased from the Sonoma County Water
Agencyand about 10% came from local City drinking water wells.
The Petaluma City Council will consider increasing the rate for water from $1.34 to
$1.80 per billing,unit (748 gallons) at a public hearing,on Monday,June 18, 2001. This
'public hearing will start at 7:00 PM and will be held in the City Council Chambers at
City Hall, 11 English:Street, Petaluma, CA. The public hearing will be continued with •
further discussion and possible action on Monday June 25, 2001.
•
3. ALTERNATIVES:
a. Maintain the'proposed operations and maintenance budget and do not refinance the
existing debt. This will•elirninate the need for the $940,500 bond reserve, increase
annual debt costs by about $170,000 and leave $2,700,000 available to maintain
reserves as well as to fund $3,398,000 in capital improvement projects for FY 01-02.
This alternative would allow the average monthly increased cost for a single-family
household to be reduced from the proposed $6.35 per month to about $4.00 per
month.
b. Eliminate programs from the operations and maintenance budget.
c. Use reserves to finance increased cost of electricity.
4. FINANCIAL IMPACTS:
Adoption of the recommended water commodity rate increase from $1.34 to $1.80 per
billing unit(748 gallons) will:
1. Add approximately$2,396,900 per year in revenue income to the Water
•
Enterprise Fund (pg. 307 of the preliminary budget). Of this revenue
approximately$1,544,331 is needed'to fund increases in wages and benefits, a •
19% rate increase from the Sonoma County Water Agency for purchased
water, an estimated 50% increase in the cost of energy and a portion of the
General Plan update.
2. In addition it is recommended by the City's Finance Dept.that the existing
$4,547,000 debt from the 1990 Zone 4 Certificates of Participation be
refinanced with revenue bonds to lower interest rates from 7.1% to 5.2% and
to shift the guarantee of repayment of these certificates from the City's
General Fund to revenues from the City's Water Enterprise Fund.
3. It is also recommended that an additional,$5,703,000 be added to the revenue
bond issue to fund the Water System Capital Improvement Program thru
2003. This will allow the construction of additional storage, buildings and
well improvements;and spread these costs over a 30-year period, which is
appropriate,given their life expectancy.
This financing,method is the same method being used to fund the City's sewer
system improvements. The lower interest rate and longer term for revenue bond
refinancing requires meeting two bond tests. The most significant'testis the
bonding requirement that revenues from operations minus expenses be 1.25 times
the annual debt service principal and,interest for the bonds. Page 478 of the
preliminary'budget shows that the annual debt service interest and principle will
• decrease from $847,500 for FY 00-01 to $682,100 for FY 01-02 with this
approach even with the increase in proceeds. Page 478 of the preliminary budget
also shows $940,500 excess revenues from operations, which covers the revenue
bond requirement of$852,625. The debt proceeds will be issued by three_ draws of
$1,900,000 over a three-year period. These proceeds will maintain City's•Water •
Enterprise Fund ending working capital balances at current levels and continue to
provide reserves for drought rate stabilization, operations, disaster contingency
and capital projects.
5. CONCLUSION:.
The proposed water rate is necessary for continued proper operation and maintenance of
the water system. The primary factors behind the need for a rate increase are a 19%
increase in-the cost of purchasing water from the Sonoma County Water Agency, an
estimated 50% increase in electrical costs and funding needs for the Water System 5 Year
Capital Improvement Program. The proposed rate increase also supports Council
Priorities for the support of reorganization, revenue generation, water conservation•and
water supply and storage issues.
6. OUTCOMES OR PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTS THAT WILL IDENTIFY SUCCESS OR
COMPLETION:
A year-end Water Utility Fund balance for FY 01-02 with no decrease in reserves.
7. RECOMMENDATION: •
Approve rate increase and Draft.resolution increasing the water commodity rate:from
$1.34 to $1.80,per billing unit (748 gallons).
