SUBJECT: Approval of Water and Sewer Rates FY2022
PRESENTATION DATE: May 25, 2021
PRESENTATION BY: Mark Bradshaw, Director of Environmental Management; Sara
Greaves, Chief Financial Officer
RECOMMENDEDATION: To adopt the proposed water and sewer rate schedule for
FY2022.
REPORT-IN-BRIEF: The Board of County Commissioners conducted a public hearing on April 13,
2021 to permit the public to testify concerning the proposed modification of water and sewer rates. The
Public comment period was held open for 7 days following the hearing.
DISCUSSION: Water and Sewer revenue requirements show that an increase in water and sewer
revenue is necessary to facilitate the Department of Water Quality's long-range financial plans. The
presented rate schedule for FY 2022 is based on this requirement.
Using an average of 12,000 gallons per quarter, each 3.5% rate increase would cost the user
approximately $6 more per quarter.
Currently, expenditures exceed revenues in both the Water and Sewer funds. Incremental increases over a
period of time has been the existing plan in place to work toward a self-supported status for these funds.
FISCAL IMPACT: Rate changes project additional revenue over FY21 budget of $26,000 for
Water and $331,000 for Sewer.
